Chat With David Hasselhoff, 'Ally McBeal' Stars

Doo-doo, doo-doo. doo-doo. Doo-doom. Doo-doom. A man with no name ... Wah-WAH-WAH WAH, Wah Woo De WAH! Wop-doo-dewoo WAH WAH! Well, it's better if you hear me sing it, with my little "Knight Rider" dance. Frankly, I don't give a flying frick about "Baywatch," but the preposterous "Knight Rider" was my childhood soul food. In Germany, where they think slabs of meat covered in fat is fine dining, David Hasselhoff was for a long period a pop superstar. Chat with him about his odd brand of fame on talkcity.com at 7 p.m. EST, 6 p.m. CST, 5 p.m. MST, 4 p.m. PST.

Among the celebrities of the world, the subdivision of legendary comic-book creators contains about ... oh, about ... one name. Stan Lee was the first to humanize superheroes, inventing Spider Man as the alter ego of a geeky teenager and Bruce Banner as a conflicted, tortured fella who didn't want to turn into the Incredible Hulk. Stan will be chatting on lycos.com at 10 p.m. EST, 9 p.m. CST, 8 p.m. MST, 7 p.m. PST.

Now that the buzz has long dies down, how do you fee about "American Beauty"? Anyone could get sucked in by the good points, which were really very good -- the original, surprising storyline, the great character of that odd boy, the superb performance of Kevin Spacey. But, with the benefit of hindsight, wasn't Annette Bening's character an embarrassingly oversimplified cipher of All That's Wrong With Suburbia? Wasn't Kevin Spacey's character indulging in a childish baby-boomer fantasy of reclaiming lost youth? I think I'll ask star Thora Birch and screenwriter Alan Ball in their chat on msn.com at 8 p.m. EST, 7 p.m. CST, 6 p.m. MST, 5 p.m. PST.

Minnesota-born Richard Dean Anderson is the current star of "Stargate SG-1." But do you know where he got his start? No? I'll give you a hint -- it starts with "General" and ends in "Hospital." But he's really known for playing the inventive scientist MacGyver on the show of the same name. Chat with him on lycos.com at 9 p.m. EST, 8 p.m. CST, 7 p.m. MST, 6 p.m. PST.

If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. The stars of "Ally McBeal," including Calista Flockhart, Lucy Liu, Greg Germann, Jane Krakowski and Portia de Rossi, are chatting on allymcbeal.com at 8p.m. EST, 7 p.m. CST, 6 p.m. MST, 5 p.m. PST.
