Star Jones has landed a Q&A with Isaiah Washington for the very first episode of her new show, Star Jones. They should name the episode “The Outcasts.” Not that Star Jones or Isaiah Washington really know what it means to truly be that, considering one has made a comeback in the form of her own Court TV show, and Isaiah Washington has signed on to be a longterm guest star on the new NBC show, Bionic Woman. And how does anything Isaiah Washington is doing relate to her law-themed show, you ask? Star tries to connect the dots, but the real answer is ratings.
How does this all relate to Jones’ law-themed show? ”[Washington is] clearly in the middle of a story that involves law and ethics and values and judgment,” Jones said. ”But also, he has a brand-new show that brings up ethical considerations. We’re excited about The Bionic Woman, but there are ethical considerations [there] because we in our technology right now are moving to replacing limbs, and we’re moving in the whole area of stem cell research, we’re moving in the area of cloning and whether or not it can actually be done with a human. And in reality, that’s what you’re doing with The Bionic Woman, you’re playing God. And so I get an opportunity to talk about those kinds of issues.”
Uh, okay. Well, I am still pretty sure the interveiw, which airs today at 3pm, will feature a lot of commiserating about feeling misunderstood and being villified in the press.
