Hulu Has Released The First Trailer For “Pam & Tommy”

November 18, 2021 / Posted by:

Are you ready to go all the way back to 1995? Of course, you are! Crack open a Clearly Canadian, because Hulu has dropped the first teaser trailer for Pam & Tommy, aka the series that stars Lily James and Sebastian Stan. As you can see from that still shot above, they totally nailed Pamela Anderson’s aggressively square French tip mid-90s acrylics, and that’s half the battle.

I will openly admit that Lily James seemed like a bit of a strange choice for Canadian-American icon of glamour and barbed wire armband tattoos Pamela Anderson. Lily just strikes me more as the type to ask Mr. Darcy if he’d care to accompany her for a polite midday walk around the sitting room before tea is served in the parlor, you know? But then we saw the first images of Lily as Pam, and it was like, yep, that’s Pam. Now we’re being given nearly two whole minutes of Pam & Tommy, and yeah, she’s still giving a very decent amount of Pam. The voice could be raised half an octave, but now I’m just getting picky. Forgive me, I’m a longtime Baywatch fan. Here’s the teaser trailer for Pam & Tommy, which drops on Hulu on February 22.

Also appearing in that trailer is Seth Rogen in a confusingly hot mullet playing Rand Gauthier, the disgruntled contractor who allegedly stole Pam and Tommy Lee’s sex tape by accident. As well as Taylor Schilling as Seth’s character’s wife, and Nick Offerman as the guy who co-conspires with Rand Gauthier to illegally distribute the tape. And they really didn’t need that giant disclaimer that Pam & Tommy was from the director of I, Tonya (aka Craig Gillespie) because this whole production looks like it was soaked in I, Tonya’s leftover bathwater. Forget the fact that Sebastian Stan appears in both, we’ve also got Seth Rogen and Nick Offerman looking like they’re about to get a call from Paul Walter Hauser like, “Come on, did anyone even try my agent’s phone number?

As mentioned above, Pam & Tommy is all about the theft of Pam and Tommy’s sex tape that they made in 1995. The tape, which was intended to be private, was allegedly stolen by accident by Rand, who allegedly stole a safe after he felt he got stiffed $20,000, and the tape was inside. It circulated around in bootleg form for a while, before the video found a distributor and made $77 million in legitimate sales in 12 months. Courtney Love has made it known that she thinks Pam & Tommy is bullshit because the release of their private sex tape “ruined” her friend’s life. But at least Courtney could probably agree that, based on this first trailer, Hulu’s series definitely paints Pam as a victim here. They could not have possibly made Seth Rogen and Nick Offerman look more like absolute dirtbag scumbag pieces of shit for stealing that tape. And you’ve got to be extra intentional if you’re trying to make this guy look like a gross slime ball.
