LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – Los Angeles TV news anchor Sam Rubin is launching a new "no holds barred" entertainment talk show September 4 on Reelzchannel.
"Hollywood Uncensored With Sam Rubin" is intended to be "The McLaughlin Group" meets "Real Time With Bill Maher" with a Hollywood spin.
Rubin will have four guests each week drawn from movies, TV, music, sports, pop culture and journalism who will tackle the hottest topics in show biz. While in the past celebrities have been hesitant to speak their mind for fear it would hurt their career, Rubin believes times have changed.
"With all the social media it has made some stars more accessible and more candid," said Rubin. "You can no longer hide the elephant in the room. People know when they have been involved in a bad project."
Rubin, who is also producing the project, said the pilot included comic Ross Matthews and outspoken talk show host Carrie Keegan. He expects the same kind of stars he interviews each morning on the KTLA Morning News to also become panelist, even when they don't have anything to promote.
Rubin said topics might include: "Who are the actors earning $20 million per movie and how'd they do it? Does 3D enhance the movie-going experience or is it a gimmick to raise ticket prices? Celebrity scandals-do fans forgive or forget?"
Rubin has been doing entertainment news at Tribune-owned KTLA since 1991. He has been appearing on the cable network Reelzchannel, which is in about 50 million U.S. TV homes, since it launched in fall 2007.
