Amanda Peet Cringes Over Rough Seinfeld Guest Experience and Studio Ghost Encounter

by

Amanda Peet has opened up about her guest appearance in Seinfeld back in the show’s heyday. 

The actress, 57, appeared in an episode as a waitress dating the character Jerry Seinfeld in 1997.

During a round of “Reveal IMDb Facts” on a recent episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, she had the opportunity to guest star. At this event, she was discussing her current series titled Your Friends and Neighbors.

‘You played a waitress that went out with Jerry,’ Cohen began, ‘How did the episode turn out?’

Of course, I’m aware,” the Spirit Award-winning filmmaker responded, momentarily wincing before inquiring if she was being asked to grade the episode itself or her overall experience.

She found it challenging, she mentioned, referring to her experience of performing before a live audience in the studio.

The experienced actress, chuckling, admitted, “I felt incredibly nervous on stage. I’d rate my fear as quite high – probably around a 5. I was genuinely terrified.

2001’s Saving Silverman movie, featuring Jason Biggs and Jack Black, left her struggling to assign a rating to her experience.

In response to the question about the romantic comedy involving friends helping their friend avoid marrying the wrong woman, Peet made a high-pitched sound initially, but later adjusted it to a seven rating following advice from Cohen.

Speaking about her experience filming The Whole Nine Yards alongside Bruce Willis (rest in peace, Matthew Perry), Peet simply replied, “That was a perfect 10.

Co-guest Elizabeth Banks, 51, had her own ‘scary’ story.

It took place while she was working on 2007’s Fred Claus with Vince Vaughn and Paul Giamatti.

‘Loved living in London, ‘she said, adding, ‘I met a ghost, so I’m gonna say 4.85.’

In another part of the same show, she provided additional details about her experience with the ghostly entity that occurred at the renowned Pinewood Studios, where she found herself all by herself.

‘She grabbed me and everything!’ she said of the spooky encounter. 

She expressed, “I understand, I catch your drift. I won’t sit on this bed any longer.” This was her statement.

‘And I never went in that corner of the room ever again,’ the Emmy nominee maintained.
