TV About Movies® today announced a lively and no-holds barred look at the week in show business and tapped veteran entertainment reporter Sam Rubin to host the weekly half-hour show ‘Hollywood Uncensored with Sam Rubin.'

Think The McLaughlin Group meets Real Time with Bill Maher with a Hollywood spin. Los Angeles-based Rubin is a familiar face on REELZCHANNEL as a longtime contributor and correspondent on Hollywood Dailies, the network's daily show that focuses on the world of movies, celebrities and entertainment.

"This is a lively, funny and irreverent show that digs into what's happening in Hollywood and the world of entertainment," said Mike Smith SVP of Programming at REELZCHANNEL. "As one of the best entertainment reporters in the entertainment capital of the world, Sam Rubin has a unique approach and unprecedented access to all things Hollywood, making him the perfect choice to share and discuss his insights with a celebrity roundtable and our viewers. This show is a natural addition to the network's growing lineup of entertainment programming."

Each week, Sam and four celebrity guests-famous faces from entertainment, politics, sports as well as newsmakers-tackle the hottest topics of the week. 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? Sam and the panel will shed a unique light on all things Hollywood that's sure to be captivating and maybe a bit controversial.

"I have always wanted to do a show all about entertainment that is as smart as the audience," said Rubin. "We are getting the best minds in Los Angeles, not necessarily an easy task and having big stars, major journalists and true movers and shakers join in for a roundtable talk show that will tackle the biggest stories in entertainment."

Hollywood Uncensored with Sam Rubin will be taped weekly in Los Angeles with Sam Rubin and Grace Mendoza as executive producers and Heidi Schultz as talent coordinator.
