hacks is honestly the best comedy on tv and jean and hannah are perfect for their parts

I love jeans character but Hannah’s is so annoying. She is so sanctimonious and entitled. She reminds me of those eco fascists who deface precious works of art

It's not a comedy.
Yes! More of her please. I love older women who have settled into themselves and can give insight into life and their industry

@@josephmanning3179 It wasn't really watchmen, it started many years ago when she was a guest start on 24 and was Emmy-nominated. Then around the time of watchmen she was nommed for Mare of Eastown and actually won Best Actress for her own new show which she headlines, called Hacks.
I have just adored Jean Smart since Designing Women. She is so talented and just a pleasure to watch. I'm so happy she is seeing more roles especially being a older lady. Love you Jean💜💜
Jean Smart is one of those rare actors that gives me goosebumps when I watch her performances. She is amazing. I love her SO much! I haven't watched Hack yet, but it's next on my list!
Have adored her since Designing Women in the 80s. In that show she was capable of making you belly laugh & well up within seconds of each other. That's how well written that show was, and how talented Jean Smart is.
She was absolutely fabulous on Fraiser!

Frasier is my favorite sitcom, she was soooooo awesome in it, loved her! glad to hear, that she got her first Emmy for it, so well deserved!
I watch Designing Women to this day. Jean was so good as the sweet and naive Charlene that it was a shock to me the first time I saw in a different role as Aileen Wournous (sp?) She is so versatile and talented and the respectful she speaks of her colleagues speaks volumes about her!
No mention of Legion. I loved seeing her in that and her playing opposite Jemaine Clements. Her character somehow set you at ease and on edge. Great stuff. She's great
Love her in Frasier! I can tell she had great fun with the role, she really cut loose and let her character be off the wall. She and her son Kirby the slacker were such fun to watch bickering.
Jean Smart is a treasure. I hope we get to enjoy her in the big screen and on TV, particularly Hacks, for many years.
I luv her so much!!! I was disappointed that they skipped over her role as Mrs. Ditmeyer on the Brady Bunch Movie, she was so hilarious in that. I would’ve loved to hear her go over that role!

Jean Smart is absolutely A+. What a talent.
I have loved Jean Smart since Designing Women and I'm so glad to still see her in awesome stuff like, Hacks and Fargo.
I wish Frasier got a fraction of the hype Friends has, with Gen Z and with international audiences that are obsessed with Friends.

Friends is about 6 friends. It’s so relatable. Frasier not so much.
finally, finally, *FINALLY* she does this type of video
Jean Smart, it is WE who are grateful! Such talent and charm, wow!
I love the sound of her voice so much.
She is flippin good in everything!
Icon! I loved her in Scarlett! She instantly elevates every project she's in!

That's my favorite role she's ever had. She brought so much to that character.
I loved her in Frasier & I adored her in the Bruce Willis movie 'the KID'
love her voice
I worked for someone like Jean Smart’s Hacks character, and the portrayal was spot on. It’s also the best comedy ever.
I adore Jean. I grew up watching her on 24! And she blows me away on hacks.
Didnt mention she won an Emmy for the series Samantha Who. She played Christina Applegate's mother. A great show nobody seems to remember.
I freaking love this woman. She is incredible.
She's such a beautiful human being, inside and out! Hope she knows how much she is respected and loved even across the pond in Eastern Europe.
Them not talking about her role in "Legion" made me wonder if she ever was in that show ... She was a freaking good part of it !!
I STILL watch her on Designing Women!!! Charleen is one if my fav sitcom sweethearts!
Jean is amazing. RIP Richard Gilliand.💗
I wish Jean Smart and Delta Burke would guest star on "Young Sheldon" in a (sub)plot with Annie Potts' Meemaw. It'd be another "Designing Women" reunion, but the characters make tongue in cheek comments about the show and characters while watching a rerun of it in the closing scene.
one of my favorite shows she was in was mid 90's. Called "High Society" it was like the US version of Absolutely Fabulous with her and Mary McDonnell. She's amazing.
Missed legion series 😞 Her character in legion is so underrated

I was gonna say the same thing!!
I’ve been a huge fan of Smart’s forever and am over the moon for her success in Hacks.
She’s so right about the scene getting cut. But my god I can’t wait to watch Babyon! Love Jean she’s so inspirational ❤
Great video and I love Jean Smart she is a great actress.😁
I grew up loving Jean Smart, watching reruns of Designing Women. I lost my mind when she showed up on 24! She was so good there. She's honestly incredible in everything she's in, but her recent run has been great and well-deserved. Her role in Mare of East town was probably my favorite because she was so dry and funny, but also super emotionally impactful. Her last conversation with Kate's character at the dinner table was understated and devastating.
I adored her in Designing Women. One of the best shows, right next to Golden Girls.
Give this woman an oscar role

PLEASE!!!
So glad she got to talk about Frasier!
A legend. Pure and simple. Hopefully lots more to COME!
I'm peeved that they didn't talk about her portrayal of Roseanna Remmick in the TV series "Harry's Law", in 2012. Such wonderful performances!
Patiently waiting for season 3 of Hacks!!
Love these series.
LOVE her and im so glad she is getting her flowers!
I was so hopeful that High Society might get a quick moment of coverage! 1st grade little me loved that show and wanted to be exactly like them when I grew up! Designer suits, pills, and cocktails, I have to think this was the blueprint for Karen Walker.

I was hoping for a clip on this show too.......... I was older than you, but loved it. I thought she and Mary McDonald wer great together. It was kind of a US attempt at "Absolutely Fabulous"
One of my favourite TV moments ever is still Jean as Charlene in “Designing Women” miming “Signed, Sealed, Delivered… I’m Yours!” over and over because the record on the radio keeps skipping back to the same part. ❤
So good in Mare of Easttown
LOVE HER SO MUCHH💖💖😭
That was such a good season of _24_

It really was! I rewatch it every so often because everything about it was fantastic
Could not love Jean more. Watchmen--especially the third episode, where she is introduced--is the best thing I've seen in 20 years.
Jean is our Queen ❤
brilliant,brilliant,brilliant actress who deserves all the accolades and more. Such an incredible journey to becoming the person you is now. Congrats on everything ❤❤❤❤
Ms. Smart was great in Mare of Eastown!
She is such an icon! I could listern to her talk and talk all day and night. Talk about such phenominal talent, and someone who just doesn't slow down!
Dr. Ann Possible!😊 Such a great video to get me caught up in some of what this overlooked performer has done in her career.
Love to see her do a career look back, but how do you mention Fargo and not mention legion??!! The same network. The same creator. Please if you love jean smart, see legion! She is absolutely amazing
I love her so much. She's so beautiful
What a lovely lady. Just so modest and complementary of everyone else. I can’t believe she didn’t win an Emmy for designing women?!?
Always LOVED Jean Smart.
Hacks is such an incredible show - brilliantly funny and intimately profound!!!
Jean Smart is the best! 😍
She's right Frasier was a really good show!
I don't know why it took Watchmen for me to realize how cool she is. This video shows she has clearly had a remarkable career that only seems to keep getting better.
I'm in love with Jean Smart. What a talented woman.
Love her so much
She was soooo good in Garden State!!
The greatest working actress.
She's magnificent ❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely love her. 💙
Love Jean so much!!!!!
Loved her in Designing Women, she is a great talent!
I loved her in Designing Women! Much later she played my son-in-law's mother in a guest spot on a different show.
Jean Smart I love you!! You are the best!!
she can do anything always has its called committed n life & craft. I love her..
She's so brilliant
If you love Jean Smart, check out her short-lived CBS sitcom "High Society". It was sort of an American version of Absolutely Fabulous. She is hilarious in it.
Love her!!!

She was so funny in watchmen
I will always love Jean Smart for Designing Women if nothing else. But what a career! She's just so smart and can do so many different things. I'm glad she's getting the acclaim she deserves.
I just love Jean Smart 😍
Just love her❤
I just realized she did voice acting not only in Disney's Kim Possible, but also in an episode of Batman The Animated Series: she was Helen Ventrix in See No Evil.
Shame on me for not previously recognizing the depth and breadth of Smart's career .
Very good in Mare of Easttown
Uhm... excuuuuse me but where is "Forever Fabulous"?! That beautiful trainwreck of a movie is one of my most praised mp4 files!!! And Jean is wonderful in it. I'm not expecting this to gain traction but IT IS on youtube if anyone is interested.
LOVE - HER!!!🥰🐕
Such a talented lady. Just watched the sag screener for Hacks, she great!
Brilliant actress
Aw, I love that Kate Winslet calls her Mummy. Jean Smart is amazing!
Jean é fabulosa em todos os sentidos , amo muito ela
Awesome, but they didn't cover her role in Legion?? She was amazing in that!
Great in Mare of Easttown
LOVE her.
This woman is a GEM!! SO talented!! Wish they would have also included The Brady Bunch Movie... she was A RIOT in it
I loved "Designing Women" Jean Smart was my favorite...but that was a killer ensemble. Annie Potts is still fantastic on "Young Sheldon".
One of my favorite scenes in a movie not mentioned: "Oh, guys, don't stay in here all day. I took the batteries out of the carbon monoxide detector. It was beeping all night." One of the best small part characters. She slays it all day.
i can't believe they don't have her talk about her critically acclaimed performance on the first season of the hawaii five-0 reboot
