He may just be giving a great performance as a dead guy.

Too soon?

Lipton made a point of keeping the questions on the craft and study of acting

Asking actors and actresses to talk about something they actually KNOW something about. How novel. RIP.

About the only. Thing I ever watched on Bravo. He was a good interviewer. And ninety-three is a good run. Same age as my dad and same Ailment. RIP.

I liked him. The few times I watched the show was before Hollywood went completely to the pits of Hell. I found him very entertaining. RIP Mr. Lipton

RIP, Mr. Lipton. I enjoyed his show almost as much a I enjoyed Will Farrell’s parodies of it. And, as much as I despise Alec Baldwin, Baldwin did a hilarious Charles Nelson Riley impression on one of those SNL skits. Another very funny skit had Lipton/Farrell interviewing “Screech” from Saved by the Bell.

Inside the Actor’s Studio was terrific. He was a great interviewer. The Robin Williams interview was hilarious and wonderful, worth every minute. I enjoyed all of the shows. And yes, no damned political crap. I even read Lipton’s book because he was such an interesting person. RIP James.

He was a WWII Air Corp vet. I saw him interviewed on Veterans Day several years ago. He said he was proud of his service and always supported the troops.

I first met him in Florida in 1986 and last talked to him about 10 years ago. Big supporter of the military as he had been an enlisted man in the USAF. I’ve been a guest of his in Manhattan and out in the Hamptons where he took me flying one afternoon. He was a very kind, genuine and interesting person. RIP.

Colorful life. I have an acquaintance who worked with him who said he was good to work with. But why oh why did he never have Ron Jeremy on his show?
