Nathan Lane destroys a self-indulgent wine show. Skip to 9:00 for the funny. :)

Best Moments:

•Nathan Lane’s hatred for the host “Ray.”
•Nathan Lane reminding everyone that there are troops overseas.
•Nathan Lane having such contempt for everyone there.

Did you link to the wrong clip? In the 17 minutes I watched, Nathan seemed to be having the time of his life (and getting more than a little red-faced tipsy).

And that's got to be the least self-indulgent wine show I've ever seen! They're all giggling and making jokes.

Nice to see Harolyn Blackwell, btw.

What a wonderful, hearty laugh she has! I'm not usually a Nathan fan, but he genuinely seems to be enjoying himself here.

"Ray" seems like a Nathan Lane Doppelganger.

I thought so, too!

Or Nathan is the Serena to Jay's Samantha.

Few people can be angry, self-pitying AND hilarious at the same time.

*lifts glass*

Here's to you, Mr. Lane!

Nathan Lane is an alcoholic as was his father. Why is he on this show?

Well, THAT explains things.

Actually, I copied and posted everything. I do think the show was a bit self indulgent, but the rest is all copy and paste from the article I found it in. lol

I had a GREAT time watching this. Hilarious.

"Nathan Lane is an alcoholic as was his father. Why is he on this show?"

Wouldn't that make him an expert panelist?

"Nathan Lane is an alcoholic as was his father."

Your acid-tongued opinions about 'art' can be entertaining at times, but this kind of public pronouncement is simply grotesque.

Shame on you, if such a thing is even possible.

To me, Lane makes the show. "It's like the whole gay community - a balance between fruit and acid."

And he almost made Harolyn Blackwell spit out her wine!

If you watch to the end, Nathan surprises everyone with a perfectly executed spit-take, absolutely atomizing a mouthful of wine into a fine mist. The show ends with Tucci and Lane performing duel spit-takes, at Tucci's request. Tucci was very funny in this as well, especially when he and Nathan "went at" each other over bad movies they'd been in.

Agreed.

Ghostlight2 - Also, agreed. :) Nathan always gives a great spit take. He did it on Inside the Actors Studio way back.

fflag you are a mean-spirited loser and you contribute absolutely nothing. Probably anywhere.

I'm pretty sure that Lane once stated that he is in AA.

I've never heard this spefically, he's spoke of his depression and his father's problems with the drink, but not his own.

The reason it wasn't really called for, was because this is just a fun video and that's all that should really be discussed. I, personally, don't like to discuss people's personal problems on a public forum.
