As the new host of Talk Soup, is having a ball skewering all those talk shows you love to hate. In her daily show on Entertainment Television, Tyler serves up a smorgasbord of talk show clips seasoned with her wickedly funny commentary. Talk Soup is only the latest credit for the lawyer-cum-comedian. Tyler worked as a stand-up comic for eight years, beginning in her hometown of San Francisco. "My comedy is very young, very hip, very guy-friendly. I say I'm like a tiny white guy tucked into a giant black woman's body," says the 6foot Tyler. She is also slated to host Universal Studio's fall TV offering, Blind Faith, and has a sitcom in development for NBC. Based on the concept of an interracial marriage to her college sweetheart, an Irish Catholic lad, the sitcom is tentatively titled Soulmates. Catch her fresh dish on E! at 7:30 p.m. weekdays.
