You can watch old episodes on YouTube. I watched Robin Williams and Dustin Hoffman so far. I have Harvey Keitel on now.

He asks good questions once you get past the haughtiness and name dropping. Will Ferrel nails him on SNL.

What a treat.

Have always loved it. Watched Goldie Hawn on there a couple of years ago. Almost bust a gut laughing -- her most hated sound is the beep, beep, beep of a golf cart backing up.

It was a well done show, by James Lipton, as the host.

Many interesting stories from interesting guests. I vaguely remember Al Pacino telling some stories about, "The Godfather", but then I have trouble remembering, what I had for breakfast sometimes. :smiley:

I thought I would be able to find many episodes on YouTube. I did not. I wonder if our library has the DVD's? I will look into that and report back.

I never really liked James Lipton, so I could never get into the show. As it turns out, he has admitted to having been a pimp in Paris in the 1950s. Now I really don't like him.

You got a great comedy premis there. How funny would it be to see Will Farell portray James Lipton as a pimp in Paris?

I don't get James Lipton either. The actors do and tell such great stories about their lives with his questions. They open up. He hardly talks at all.
