I don't know who this is. Looks like Rip Torn as he appeared in Men In Black! LOL!
Not making light of someone dying, but who is this guy? A talkshow host for a show about celebrities according to the link?

The well-respected host of "Inside the Actor's Studio." Sometimes he'd ask some pretty silly questions, but he was a class act.

HAHHAHAHAH!!!
-love Dodgeball and there's Rip Torn!- nice work on that double entendre there - a wrench to the face for not knowing and an RT reference! ;) Hysterical!

I don't know the show. Maybe I'll youtube one.

Mandela effect, I thought he passed like, easily 5+ years ago. Now I'm sad all over again. RIP.

Holy ****! He's dead?! I'm shocked.

Though to be fair, I really miss Will Ferrell's portrayal of him.

Hey! That was really cool and nicely done. I like how they ended that and with the answer to his own question about heaven and so on.

So yeah, I expected to see an interview and then say "ohhh yeah I know this guy" but honestly that was the first time I've ever heard of him. That was a neat vignette though. Looks like a guy that found his niche and did it exceptionally.

Ah, that's a shame.

At least we know there's already a replacement waiting in the wings:

((I confess that THIS is what springs to my mind first whenever anyone mentions "Inside The Actors Studio". :lol:))

He was a great host. He would ask the Celebrity he's interviewing. What is his or her favorite curse word. and things like that.

That was a nice clip that was worth watching. Thanks for sharing it because I didn't know who Mr. Lipton was either.
