Some good natured ribbing, old fashioned button pushing, and chop-busting banter. That about sums up Howie Mandel's visit to "Piers Morgan Tonight."
But when the topic turned to Twitter, that's when things got personal. "Why would anybody want to follow you?" quipped Piers Morgan. "Because I'm wonderfully entertaining," retorted the comedian and television host.
Former co-judges on "America's Got Talent," the sit-down proved an easy occasion for Morgan and Mandel to revisit their friendly rivalry: "You tormented me," recalled Morgan of his time on the show.
Watch the video, and enjoy the exchange as Mandel uses the "Piers Morgan Tonight" platform to grow his social media brand: "I just got two more followers!"

I thought carefully before commenting on this show. The above description of the interview gives a peculiar twist to Piers's low class treatment of an invited guest. Piers disgusting disparagement of Mandell was clearly premeditated, and not provoked by Mandell. Mandell is a popular, well liked and well known comedian, actor, producer, and host, in the field of entertainment. Piers has yet to, and may never, reach that level. Piers has a stained reputation in Britain and came to America because his future was dim in Britain. His soul-mate and boss, Rupert Murdoch, was disgraced before the world and could offer Piers little future opportunity. Piers has shown himself to endorse Right wing ideologies and if he has any self respect he should declare his preferences. It took only about 1 year for Piers to turn my admiration of him to disgust. .
