I have no idea who James Lipton is either!

Also (stupid question alert!) is there a way to use the questions as a template or must you type them out again in your reply?
 
James Lipton does an interview type tv show that I catch once in a while on a cable tv channel called Bravo. It's usually done in a live setting with the audience consisting of acting students. My favorite show is when Lipton had the entire cast of The Simpsons on the show.

He's mostly fluff as stated earlier, but sometimes it's pretty funny when the guests take over.

Why not cut and paste the questions and delete out the other persons answers then fill in your own?
 
also this questionnaire is one that lipton uses that a famous french journalist called bernard pivot used.they are proustian type questions, and marcel proust was a french writer who was most famous for his book" remembrance of things past". it was written in a stream-of-consciousness style.

uh er moto, where are your answers?
 
Ok I got it. Does he use the same set of questions for every show of his? That must be pretty boring!
 
yes but each actor answers differently and often it is very funny. i omitted one question, to avoid...well i just wanted to avoid it, but i will go ahead and say it now. it is,"if heaven exists what do want to hear god say at the pearly gates" and the answers can be really good.
 
alright jenn, I'll play, but only cause you asked....
