‘Inside the Actors Studio’ Host James Lipton Dies at 93

[MenacingMonk]

Didn’t know he was that old. I used to check the show from time to time back in the day. Seeing him as the warden on Arrested Development was surprising.

I wonder what he heard when he arrived at he pearly gates


Dave Chapelle being the one he chose to interview him for his own Inside the Actors Studio was


James went from working on a whorehouse in Paris when he was in his 20's to a Hollywood icon

 

[Kingshango]

He started his show at 63 and ran it for 23 seasons.

RIP.

That sucks.

That was the big homey.

I always felt like he did the best interviews with actors because he understood the craft so well and was so passionate about it. You would learn a lot about the actors in ways a typical interview wouldn't reveal because no one was as thorough in their research and would dedicate the time to come up with something deeper than the typical bullshyt questions. He also had a great way of making an actor let their guard down and get thoughtful answers.

Respect due. Peace and blessings.

 

[Jack Skellington]
