User Reviews
Really great in-depth interviews with actors.
Must have seen plenty of the episodes, & was interesting up to a point if U were a fan of some celeb's! But same questions each time-yikes!
Host had an expression as though guests would explain the meaning of life. Acting isn't complicated. Take a few classes; you'll learn more.
It was great to see such long-form interviews with actors
A lot of fun to sit around with a bunch of friends and watch.
Great series with some of the best interviews out there. Always entertaining and oftentimes funny and insightful.
A modern classic. True in-depth conversations about acting. James Lipton was special.
“What turns you on?” Not this. “What sound or noise do you hate?” James Lipton’s creepy laugh. Show is still good, though.
Not a show you watch every episode of but a good watch when he interviews actors you enjoy. Definitely recommend.
A true classic, I miss it! I always loved learning the actors’ favorite curse word 😂
