Twilight Lover James Franco Incites Mass Hysteria At Actor's Studio
It appears that in between curating art shows, attending classes, finishing up work on his Three's Company reboot and a very busy self-pleasure schedule, James Franco was able to sneak away for a taping of Inside the Actor's Studio -- and the audience was out of control. Screaming women, hundreds of rejected fans and one overworked guest who would have likely just slept through the entire presentation were he in the audience.
Franco, the Robert Pattinson for twentysomethings, was by all accounts one of the best guests to ever appear on the show. In addition to no doubt being his charming and affable self, the writer / actor / professional graduate student stayed an extra hour-and-a-half to speak with every student and fan in the joint, something that had not been done since first guest Paul Newman in 1994. Among the Franco-philes were a large number of women whose screams were so loud the regal James Lipton remarked, "17 years filming this show and I've never heard a sound like that before."
It is unknown when the episode will air but don't worry if you miss it, Franco likely has an avant-garde recreation of the experience in the works as we speak.

Episode airs Dec 7th, btw... but eagerly awaiting the avant-garde recreation!
James Franco is talented and all but is he really worth the Blue Cards?
Seriously?
When compared to previous guests like Newman, Sean Penn and Al Pacino one has to wonder if "ITAS" has jumped the shark.
What body of work are they hailing?
After 230 episodes. I guess they are running out of willing, living big-name actors who are on the level of Paul Newman. But since NBCU acquired Bravo is 2003, the bar does seem to have been lowered slightly, and Lipton has interviewed several guests who happen to have shows on NBC.
