It looks like The Wiseawesome Series will only be five parts. I'm sure you're as brokenhearted about this as I am.

I have no excuse for last week's absence other than a feeble "planning a wedding in a mere six weeks is hard, you guys!" Yeahhh, I'm getting married on Saturday, June 2nd. The Wiseawesome Series was originally conceived as a countdown to my wedded bliss (Tommy Wiseau is my personal Dick Clark).

There is only ONE Sunday between me and wifehood. Aaaaaahhhhh!!!

Today's bit of Tommy: The beginning of the interview. He gives some interesting insight into how The Room stumbled into being a midnight screening staple, but my favorite part is the interview opener...

Peter Flynn: Could you tell us maybe, just in brief, of the history of The Room as a midnight screening?

Tommy Wiseau: Yeah, hey, this is Tommy Wiseau, uh, uh... what's your question?

Classic.

The Sunday Sound: The Wiseawesome Series, Part 3.

And here is where reality breaks down. One question from a "cute" but disrespectful young lady inspired Tommy to offer a sermon on turning the other cheek, what love really means (teaser: "it is more than S-E-X"), and ends in a powerful show of crowd patriotism, with the chant...

"U. S. A.! U. S. A.! U. S. A.!"

You get two minutes this week. I promise it truly was necessary to share this shining highlight of the Q&A session with Tommy Wiseau from start to finish.

It taught me to NEVER ask where he is from and that Tommy Wiseau is really proud to be an American.

Can someone tell me which part of America this accent hails from?
