Career

In 2014 Contursi was credited in an appearance she had filmed for the television series The Big Bang Theory.[3][4] She was one of two guest stars credited in the episode directed by Mark Cendrowski.[3][4] Her filmed scene was subsequently cut from broadcast in the final aired version of the episode.[5] Show creator Chuck Lorre commented upon this in the vanity card at the end of the episode.[5] He noted the inherent irony in that the episode itself dealt with character Penny's response when she learns her scene was cut from the television show NCIS.
