Joan's comedy often went over my head when I was a young man, but watching reruns and new performances makes me realize that she was more clever and creative than Carson and less boring than Letterman.

That screams "I'm not enough". If she'd loved, valued, honored herself, had her own back...she would never have decided to do all that. It's sad when people buy into the lies of society, their definitions of beauty, value etc. If each human thought they were enough, didn't live in shame...there would be no market for cosmetics, elective plastic surgery, and a plethora of other services/products, we are sold.

Agree!

Joan Rivers would be better than any Late Night hosts today.

Or back then either, if it hadn’t have been for Johnny Carson’s huge yet fragile ego. Joan never forgave him.

@@DeeEllEff Ego?! Duplicity in this situation Has nothing to do with ego. She dissd & betrayed Johnny who gave her the starting in comedy. She should have told him, I signed a contract with Fox to have my own show ! Then there wouldn't have been such a big deal by hiding this fact from him she hurt his feelings immensely !! Carson's Egp was always contained and never fragile or even flagrant. He was very respectful to all people, especially the common and senior citizens. I really admire that !! 💓 We all make mistakes, and Joan did a doozy ! Yet, she has The Gift of Gab and she was well loved on her day talk show. She's a very sensitive & kind human being, as was Johnny. I deeply miss both of them. 💔🤗

@@SweetChicagoGator Thanks for the different perspective on Carson. I’m still not sure if I agree with Johnny C. being a kind and sensitive person (there’s quite a bit of evidence to the contrary), but certainly anybody can suffer hurt feelings, that’s for sure.

Wow. That was a masterclass. These two are unparalleled

These two. Effortless comics. So delightful to hear them go back & forth. RIP wonderful ladies.

I just double-checked the date that was posted here. It's funny that she is so bright and cheery, Joan teasing Betty about her show and getting back into "the market" (Dating Scene). As some would know already, Betty's husband, Allan, had passed away less than 2 years before (1980-1981). She had been married to him for 20 years. She never did remarry in her remaining 40 years but you wouldn't have known she was a widow. Simply remarkable and inspiring. #RIPBettyWhite #RIPJoanRivers #legends

This was an absolute delight. Both women are deeply missed.

It's so eye-opening and shocking to know both of these brilliant women are no longer giving gifts to this world. They will forever be missed ❤️

Both beautiful and brilliant and hilarious.. and missed

Two of the greatest humans who ever existed in the entertainment industry. The world was changed by them both and they should never be forgotten. Beautiful hilarious women. The world became a less fun place when they left, and nothing will ever replace them.

they could literally bash each other, in pure, good natured pun fun, and see who could get the literal last laugh.. and they adored each other... you cant even TRY that these days..

A chat between two of the genuinely funniest women of all time... More, please! 👏

That was fun! Love these two funny ladies. ❤

These 2 are such an iconic duo. The way they read each other is absolutely legendary.

Both of these woman are having a ball up in heaven. ❤️❤️❤️

Omg that was SO fn funny!!🤣 I needed that. Legendary babes 💖

I had no idea how witty Betty was! She was quick and funny.

Wish I could tell Betty White, we get a glimpse of God's unconditional love for us through animals that we treat well ❤

Your comment here is beautiful, and of great value to those of us lucky enough to see it.

I love both of these great ladies. R.I.P TO BOTH. Will be missed forever. This episode is so funny.

Two extraordinarily funny talented beautiful women 🙏RIP🙏 !!!!

I understand how life works but it’s so heartbreaking that these 2 iconic women are no longer with us!!!

I LOVE how beautifully dressed these 2 hilarious ladies are!💕

I've rarely ever seen Rivers laugh like this, with a guest. She was delighted to meet her match!!

Awe these women were just adorable, it's very bittersweet to watch this, so full of life and I'm in awe of Betty, her resilience to keep going is truly inspiring - she'd only lost her husband Allan less than a year before this was aired, she could keep it together and with such humility, kindness and dignity. Joan was a legend! ❤️❤️

Two of the funniest ladies ever.

Hysterically funny they kept me in stitches. I love the bantering back and forth between them. They were both good buds. There will never anyone who will top her comedic abilities. Love them both. They t missed. RIP comedy legends

I loved Joan Rivers and Betty White. Both great entertainers

What I adore about Betty White is she never ever put a person down. She may poke fun at herself but does not appear better than. Always classy.

And even when the joke is barbed, it never feels like she’s putting Joan down, at all. It feels like a cheeky remark and never a catty one. Sharp, classy and witty.

Watching this while sick with a cold and i have to tell you it’s the best medicine; I miss these amazing ladies!

these two icons just bring so much joy and character through the screen that rarely anyone in Hollywood has 💞 RIP JOAN & BETTY 🫶

Y’all witnessed it here! Betty White was the first to say Gucci as a positive adjective!

I miss both of these ladies.

The world dearly misses these two comedic legends. I hope you're both laughing in heaven.

Betty White such a class act

I'm so grateful to have met both, and they were just as funny and sincere as you would have expected. I met Betty at her book signing of her memoirs, at Beverly Center (back when there was a bookstore... think it was B Dalton's?). She was pleasant and friendly. Still have the book in my bookcase, signed to me and my 2 former cats! 🤗😻😻 I met Joan at Spago, on the Sunset Strip, after celebrating my "graduation from college" dinner. She was with her husband Edgar and another couple. Was nervous, but told her I enjoyed watching her late night show. Also told her had tickets to see the show in a couple of weeks. She gave me name of contact once I went there. Long story short... was able to get 2nd row aisle seat about 10 feet from her, when she did her monolog with the audience. I also was on TV just above her shoulder, as the camera turned towards the audience! Next day had about 1/2 dozen people say they saw me on TV! 😎🤣 Then few years later I went to an open house in Bel Air, that turned out to be Joan & Edgar's mansion, where Melissa grew up! Later was purchased by Janet Jackson! When Joan passed, it hit me hard, as I truly felt I had a personal connection with her, and when Betty passed, it felt like losing my grandmother again! I miss both of them! 😢

These women as still national treasures. Thank you KZread.

So iconic!! RIP to these legendary queens ❤

these two are so funny. Betty laughing so hard at even her own jokes is classic. I'm glad we have this in their absence. RIP Betty and Joan - you broke the mold!

Oh how I love these ladies. I miss them so much.

Two true GIANTS of comedy!!! Loved this :)
