okey i like this show when it comes to hearing the actors give their opinions etc,getting to know them somewhat more than in the usual letterman 3minute interview.

BUT.

MY GOD is this a a$$kissing show?
Lipton is the biggest asskisser in history.
the audience applauding to the point of hilarity.
"the craft"
"the process"
almost like acting is something sacred.
like they are true heroes.

overpaid millionaires who act 10 minutes a day.
that is a big insult to everyone of us that has to work 8-9 hours a day for not very much money.

as i said.i like the show,and i think it is fun to watch.
but..my god...that is some asskissing right there.
wow.

Lipton is fun but boy does he kiss up.

I used to like the show when it first started because actors actuall talked about the "craft" and the "process". The show, though, has changed over the years. We now hear actors talking about their personal experiences and travel plans which gets boring quickly. I really don't want to hear about their first non-acting jobs or where they grew up.

james lipton's phony fancy accent is still hilarious!

Hey, sprechen sie talk?

I agree, Lovetvshows. I believe it "jumped the shark" in season 15 when they had Jon Bon Jovi. I loved when they used to talk about their training and the struggles they faced in making a living as an actor, which is EXTREMELY difficult. Now its just a celebrity talk show, with a lot of mediocre guests.

Well if you are that jealous of them, put your job aside or save up and try to pursue the industry. It really is actually not all that it is cracked up to be. In fact, if you know someone in the industry, it should not be hard to get you in at all and you too, could be making the same amount of money. The reasons why their wages are so high is obviusly because of agent negotiations and SAG-AFTRA. If you are an agent, trying to make 10% off every client you submit; you are going to do everything in your power to raise your actor's wages. Give him 10 million and I will take home a mill.

Better watch out, better start crying. Better hurry up, run and hide. Krampus is coming to town! >:)
