Quotes

Kerri Kenney: You know, I got a call from the people at Whose Line Is It Anyway? And I just said, 'Thank you very much, I’m flattered to even be thought of, that you would even think that I can do that. I can’t. Trust me. It’s a form of improv that I just know that I’m not good at. I tried it. I don’t feel comfortable doing it. Not good enough at it'. (edit)
Kerri Kenney: What I constantly hear from people is, 'Wow, you’re not as retarded and ugly as you are on TV.' Which is, you know, that’s what you want to hear. (edit)
[On if she's ever had a bad improv experience]
Kerri Kenney: Oh, they happen daily. I couldn’t even point to one. I mean, the thing that people don’t realize about Reno is we shoot on video, which is real cheap, so we can spew crap all day that we don’t use. We overshoot a lot. So there are entire pieces that don’t work that we just throw on the editing room floor and then we do another and it’ll work. I mean, we’ve certainly gotten better. Our ratio of what works and doesn’t work is certainly better than it was. But there are plenty of times when we open our mouths and nothing comes out, and we look like fools. (edit)
