Here's What Fans Are Really Saying About 'Pam And Tommy'

Publish date: 2024-07-04

Pam and Tommy is a groundbreaking biographical drama that has audiences tuning in from all over the globe. The newly released mini-series takes a brutally honest look at the inner workings of Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee's highly controversial relationship, and that alone makes fans curiously engaged. Anderson and Lee were infamous for their very intimate video tape and the explosive drama that unfolded during their tumultuous relationship.

Seth Rogen is one of the talented Executive Producers who has been working tirelessly behind the scenes to bring this wild entertainment to life, and it's proving to be creating as many waves as Pamela and Tommy's real relationship did. After all, neither of them have actually been involved in any aspect of this dramatization of their lives at all. This is about them, but they haven't had any say over the series at all. Fans are now sharing their thoughts on the drama that has had absolutely no influence from the actual people it's based on.

10 Lily James Was A 'Terrible Casting Decision'

In fact, many fans feel that no matter how well Lily James transformed with her hair, makeup and costume choices, there is simply nobody that should ever try imitating the iconic character that Pamela Anderson portrayed. James' ability to pull off a believable version of Pamela Anderson was slammed by many fans that called this a "terrible casting decision."

8 Tommy Lee Thinks It's 'Cool'

Based on their real-life relationship profile, perhaps it isn't so shocking that Tommy Lee's views of Pam & Tommy are far different than Pamela Anderson's.

Lee has indicated that he thinks this is a 'cool' idea and has stated that he believes his dramatic relationship with Pamela Anderson would certainly pack a lot of entertainment value and is a story worth telling.

7 Kudos Go Out To The Makeup Artist

Naturally, Lily James doesn't resemble Pamela Anderson at all, and fans are now recognizing the enormous effort that goes in to filming each episode.
