'''James Lipton''' is the host of ''[[Inside the Actor's Studio]]'', a talk show where he interviews actors and others involved with movies and television shows. 

== History ==
Lipton once had [[Rainier Wolfcastle]] as a guest on his show, but the interview went badly when Wolfcastle went into character as [[McBain]], mistook Lipton for McBain's old nemesis [[Mendoza]] and shot Lipton. Ever the gracious host, however, Lipton said, "It was a pleasure to eat your lead, good sir!" as he collapsed.<ref>"[[The Sweetest Apu]]"</ref>

Lipton survived the shooting and later had the cast of ''[[Thicker than Waters]]'' on his show in a reunion interview. Lipton tried (but failed) to get [[Rebecca]], who played [[Lizzie Waters]], to talk about her hairstyle "The Lizzie". Rebecca got mad and refused to say anything, but [[Digby Sheridan]], who played [[Patrick Waters]], spontaneously admitted to having slept with "everyone in the cast - including the dog."<ref>"[[Homer the Father]]"</ref>

A picture of James Lipton was on the wall of [[The Penny Loafer]].<ref>"[[I'm Just a Girl Who Can't Say D'oh]]"</ref>
