Robin Quivers Movies
Robin Quivers is best known for having acted as the straight woman and co-host for nearly two decades on the popular, controversial Howard Stern Show morning radio broadcast. As a result, Quivers has been hailed the most popular female radio personality in the U.S. She made her feature film debut in Howard Stern's autobiographical comedy Private Parts (1997). ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
Based on a best-selling autobiography, this comedy drama is the surprisingly sweet-natured life story of a controversial radio personality. Howard Stern, who stars as himself, is a nerdy New York kid who dreams of a disc jockey career despite being a self-loathing klutz who lacks a traditional broadcaster's voice. A strikeout artist in college, Stern's romantic travails end when he meets and marries Alison (Mary McCormack), a beautiful social worker. Stern's early career at several radio stations is undistinguished. Bored, he makes his life the centerpiece of his show, including his obsessions with sex and bathroom humor, and he finds willing cohorts in news reporter Robin Quivers and producer Fred Norris. After an abortive tenure at a Washington D.C. station that loathes his high-rated antics, he lands at NBC in New York. Again, Stern clashes regularly with executives, especially Kenny "Pig Vomit" Rushton (Paul Giamatti), who runs roughshod over Stern's team. At home, Stern's tendency to discuss the intimate details of his marriage takes a toll, reaching a meltdown when he jokes about Alison's recent miscarriage on-air. ~ Karl Williams, All Movie Guide

The protagonist of this made-for-TV techno-thriller is Terri (Gigi Rice), a single mom who works in one of those offices where everyone has a computer terminal wired to the "hottest" sites on the web. Evidently one of Terri's co-workers is a little more computer-literate than the next. It is this mystery man who, using the handle "Cybergod," has inaugurated a campaign of terror aimed at our heroine. But is this online stalker the person who Terri strongly suspects, or someone whom she would never in a million years consider to be a dangerous predator? Whatever the case, an ex-cop named Jones (Ed Marinaro), whose partner was murdered by the selfsame Cybergod, declares his intention to solve the mystery and save Terri from a similar demise. Watch for familiar Howard Stern sidekick Robin Quivers in a supporting role. Deadly Web first aired April 15, 1996, on NBC. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
