An interview show focused on intimate viewpoints, from the heart to the platform, with celebrity guests sharing their lives in the privacy of their extraordinary homes. Dive into the pool of famous lifestyles with Bruce's hour-long prime time entertainment format.

Bruce W. Cook creates a format that will break new ground in television. He’s invited into celeb’s private homes to tap their lifestyle stories. What does Madonna think about God and gay marriage? Will Warren Beatty run for president of the United States? How does Kevin Kline reveal proof of unfathomable media injustice? How're Rosie O'Donnell and Kelli Carpenter O'Donnell enjoying newly wedded bliss?

Cook goes beyond Hollywood stars and gets up close and personal to household names in big business, media, politics, and more. What’s in store for Bill and Hillary? What's on Shaquille O’Neal's mind? Will Bill and Melinda Gates speak out more freely in the comfort of their own home…would you? And who knows where Martha Stewart will be living. These are the influential and the powerful. The newsworthy names name-droppers love to name.

Bruce W. Cook is among them.

Cook's unpredictable and sometimes startling dialog may catch the egos and hearts of his esteemed guests off guard. Always into his naturally intuitive style, he knows how to do it. Bruce delivers a mix of intellect and humor, substance and style.

How? His rapport, wisdom, and compassion allow him to poke into the lives of these most high-profile people. Only he can ask the most insensitive questions in the most sensitive way.

With remarkably diverse talent, Bruce started his career in 1975. He was hired by CBS Television Network after he came to the producers with a concept that was ultimately transformed into Bicentennial Minutes. He rose to West Coast production supervisor for CBS Sports. “Television City”, Hollywood, called him back to work on the Carol Burnett Show, All in the Family, plus many other major entertainment programs. He was the youngest producer in Hollywood of a network television comedy, The Redd Foxx Show. There’s more, Too Close for Comfort, The Marie Osmond Show, The Dianne Carroll Show, The Dick Van Dyke Show, too many to mention.

It was 1980 when Bruce was summoned to Paramount Studios to interview for a producer position on a syndicated television format that would change the medium forever. The show was Entertainment Tonight and Bruce W. Cook was hired to help start the production and was in fact instrumental in securing its place on the airwaves, where E.T. has remained for the past 23 years. Nominated for two Emmy Awards in the process, Cook also helped to launch Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous with Robin Leach, which was a spinoff of Entertainment Tonight in 1985. Fast forward, and Cook will now host the stars.

Ever present in multimedia, he has owned his own radio talk show, Cook is the Creator/Publisher of Grand Tour Magazine, Editor of Bay Window Magazine, Columnist for Los Angeles Times/DailyPilot and author of eight published books. In his spare time Bruce has a very unusual hobby. He performs a nightclub act.
