Bruce Willis, Karl Urban on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live'Jimmy Kimmel had a high compliment to pay 'Red' actors Bruce Willis and Karl Urban. His friend "James 'Baby Doll' Dixon" always falls asleep in movies. But during 'Red,' "He was awake through the whole film -- that's how good it was," said the host of 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' (weeknights, 12:05AM ET on ABC).

Kimmel asked Willis, "If the movie wasn't good, would you come out and lie?" He nodded sheepishly. "I have lied ... not about this film, but I have."

Karl Urban discussed working with another 'Red' star, the 93-year-old Ernest Borgnine. When a wardrobe girl asked the iconic actor how he stays so sprightly, Borgnine gave a lewd explanation.

Bryan Cranston Gyrates in 'Saturday Night Live' "What Up With That?" Sketch (VIDEO)

Bryan Cranston Gyrates on 'Saturday Night Live'Oscar winners Morgan Freeman and Ernest Borgnine joined DeAndre Cole (aka Kenan Thompson) as "guests" on Thompson's mock talk-show "What Up With That?"

This time in the recurring 'Saturday Night Live' (Sat., 11:30PM ET on NBC) sketch, Freeman was questioned on education. "I think what our schools lack today is empowerment -- it's the first thing we need," he said, as some drum-kit cymbals started up. "Where it really starts is with a solid family foundation."

"Family foun-da-tion!" Thompson belted out. "It begins in the home, yeah!" The fake host was then joined by his customary backup singers, '80s b-boy dancer Jason Sudeikis and the Kenny G-esque Fred Armisen. Funkadelic duo Doo-Doo Man (host Bryan Cranston) and Squiggy (Jay Pharoah) had a literacy lesson to add to the ditty. Cranston sang, "Put a book in your mouth. Put a book in your pants..." while gyrating in undies and a feather-boa coat. Surely a lesson not soon forgotten.

Fan Expo 2010 Day 3: 'Brokeback' Borgnine, Life After 'Heroes' and Shatner is the Sh%$

by Aaron Broverman, posted Aug 30th 2010 10:15PM
It's the last day of Fan Expo for another year and the crowds are still lining up around the block, but at least there's a little more space on the convention floor, since some people opted to take it easy and stay home. In fact, it was so much easier to move around I was able to pack in two extra panels today.

The little kid in me always wanted to know what happened to Adam, Black Ranger from ' Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers.' It just so happens the actor who played him, Johnny Yong Bosch, was leading a workshop called 'Voice Acting 101,' as he is now an accomplished voice actor for various anime series and video games. He explained his vocal techniques for switching from adult to younger characters, how to make a demo for potential auditions and how to pitch the mic to reduce the boom.

Ernest Borgnine shares his fountain of youth secret - VIDEO

Ernest BorgnineApparently, 91 year-old actor Ernest Borgnine forgot that he was wearing a microphone on his chest during an interview on Fox and Friends this morning.

Host Steve Doocy asked him how he stayed so healthy and young-looking when he's in his 90s, and assumed it was because he didn't eat red meat. At first Borgnine says that he can't tell Doocy, but when they want to know, Borgnine leans over to Doocy and says ... well, you have to check out the clip after the jump to see exactly what Borgnine says; I don't want to spoil it for you, but it got laughs from everyone on the Fox and Friends set. Please feel free to insert your own McHale's Navy and/or "sea men" joke here.

In related news, Borgnine said in an interview with ABC News Radio that when he was in the Navy he used to visit hookers for only $2.00!

Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip: Monday

by Jay Black, posted Jan 23rd 2007 7:51AM
Studio 60, judging from your comments, I'm gonna say most of you will ignore that applause sign..(S01E12) I guess this is the love episode. From the reality show that our new character Hailey was pitching to the ever-complicated Matt/Harriet relationship to the starting-to-be-creepy Danny/Jordan relationship to the we're-all-rooting-for-it-to-work Tom/Lucy relationship, it seemed the stage has been set for some major romantic doings in the coming weeks.

First Danny/Jordan: I mentioned in a previous post how much I loved Danny telling Jordan to start running because he was "coming for her". I thought it side-stepped the forced sexual tension that every show in the history of television has had. Well, let me say this: I spoke too soon.
