Carson Kressley To Host Lifetime Talk Show

In a rare move for a cable network, Lifetime is looking to launch a daytime talk show, handing out a pilot order for a talker hosted by Carson Kressley.

It is part of an effort by the female-centered cable net to add original programming during the day, when it currently airs mostly off-net sitcoms.

Kressley is expected to mention the new talk show project at the TV Critics Assn.'s press tour Friday, when he promotes the second season of the Lifetime reality series "How to Look Good Naked," which he hosts.

The untitled talker, intended to air Monday-Friday, will feature the "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" alum in both a studio and the field interviewing real people and offering viewers insight into fashion and other topics.

What book are they using to pull these ridiculous names from???
Sounds like an old Yale chum of George the 1st.

If I had to guess, I'd say the South. It's very common when a girl with the last name of Carson marries a guy with the last name of Kressley, that they name their child Carson Kressley.

Another example: Shepard Smith.

Just a guess.
