Does Sneak Preview of Anderson Cooper's New Show Grab You?

The Silver Fox will be burning the midnight oil come this fall, when the opinionated CNN news stud Anderson Cooper will juggle not one, not two, but three different gigs.

In addition to contributing to "60 Minutes" and anchoring CNN's "360," the daring, dedicated news man will also be taking his first shot at hosting a daytime talk show, "Anderson," which will hit screen in syndication on September 12.

“I wanted to have something that was as much fun as I have filling in for Regis or the work I did for Oprah over the years,” Cooper said earlier this year about his expectations for the show. "There’s a lot of stuff in pop culture I’m obsessed about and follow and I’m looking forward to having the opportunity to just exercise different muscles and be authentic and show the different sides of myself.”

In a series of promos posted on his YouTube channel, Cooper, 44, talks about how he's got forehead wrinkles from too much worrying, needs to wear glasses now because his eyesight is failing and how he wants to "live more, laugh more" and that's why he's launching his new show.

In another clip he says he wants to give voice to those people we don't normally hear from and talk to people with compelling stories.

"Too often these days we listen to the loudest voice, the angriest voices," he says, promising to find other interesting tales to tell.

He talks about his favorite daytime shows, the ones he learned a lot from, like Phil Donahue, Oprah, "Ellen" and "Regis and Kelly." His show won't change your life, and he's not trying to be like those broadcasting icons, but what he is trying to do is make your life "more interesting, more informed and more fun."

Hey, wake up! He hasn't even started broadcasting yet!

Do these promos make you want to watch the new Cooper talk show?

    Does anyone watch him now? No one watches MSNBC or CNN anymore unless you are just a big fan of Kool-aid. Everyone is tired of the lies and bias and this will be just another way of promoting liberal agendas.

    Yeah, maybe this time he will be open and finally come out and say he's gay.

    Why is it that all gay people are expected to make an announcement about it? Straight people don't have to "come out and say they're straight." Anderson Cooper has never been in the closet. He just chooses not to discuss his personal life. He says that he'd rather report the news than be the news. Makes sense to me.

    Right of Passage.

    Like walking over coals. I had to walk over coals to prove my "manliness".
  • Tori afacele... 2011/07/30 14:25:22
    Tori
    I don't really know what you're saying here, but I'll be very much surprised if Cooper ever feels the need to make make an announcement about his sexuality. For that matter, he certainly doesn't need to walk over coals to prove his manliness.

    It was just a "funny" statement. All cleb gays come out and it hits big. I don't need to name them. Then they get interviewed by someone like Oprah.

    That's why I very rarely watch any broadcast news media ever. And why I usually look for opposing viewpoints in written media - so I can see the biases of both sides.

    After hearing his trash talk about "tea bagging" right on TV, which I guess is now mainstream nasty talk, I never watch or listen to him at all. I hadn't even heard that term, but it's obvious he knows a lot about such acts and feels very comfortable discussing them in public.
