Phyllis was NOT ugly! I feel such sadness that she felt that way as a child.

That part about assessing the audience while you’re performing is amazing. I got to see Phyllis perform every night when I worked at a summer theatre. Each performance was a little different. Some jokes were dropped, some added. Her delivery was “shotgun” - one joke after another in rapid succession building until the audience was whipped up into a frothy state of hysterical laughter. But if she was off by one milli-second, you could feel the high energy lower a bit, get a little quieter, and it would take her 3 or 4 jokes to get them back up to their former pitch of laughter. But she always did it. Astonishing!

Saw her once performed 22 minutes at Rascals Comedy in West Orange NJ but it was like 300 jokes in shotgun fashion.

@@tomwestfld392 Yes, exactly, that’s how she worked. Her ability to “read” her audience, I believe, determined which of the many jokes she would use during a particular performance. It’s an amazing ability!

Thanks for posting the video. Loved Phyllis. Fun watching this.

Love and miss you Phyllis...She lived to be almost 96. She was so funny ...She was a year older than my mom too. And she was a from my home state of Ohio. Rest in Peace Phyllis!

not kidding. I'm 57 too. Always liked her in my youth you know someone you noticed on TV. probably 20 years went by and I never thought about her. I was off work on medical leave in 2012 I never sleep during the afternoon but afternoon I crashed on the couch drifted off as I awoke I felt a presence someone very very familiar I knew it was a older woman diva character humorous but I couldn't place who it was then I decided it was my aunt Blanche my mom's best friend she was a spinster character of that vintage she always picked on me but loves me I realized it wasn't Blanche I lay there in a semi slumber for several minutes frustrated I couldn't figure out who it was and then it came to me like I woooosh. it was like a rush my eyes still weren't open but popped up from the couch eyes wide open screaming to myself it was Phyllis Diller. shook my head and laughed got up and started doing something and it stuck with me and I had to look her up online I thought to myself she even still alive sure enough I looked her up Phyllis Diller was still alive she was 95 years old I thought it's not something. just so you know there was no radio or anything else on. the next day or the day after I saw on the news where she had died I double checked the date it was the day after I had this experience. tell me there are not forces at work. Loved her too even more after that. Will never forget that experience

My Grandmother was very quiet but her two sisters were just like Phyllis. I loved them.

Awww, where's the rest? Wonderful to see Roseanne interacting with Phyllis.

Great interview. Very interesting listening to both of them.Thank-you.

I love it "GET A STICK n KILL IT b4 it multiplies" lol love her sense of humor .

Love love love Phyllis miss you funny beautiful lady ❤❤❤

I am citing this interview for something I am writing. What would be the best title for this?

Two beautiful Legends comedians Phyllis had a laugh that would make your heart laugh and cry she had a wonderful catchy laugh the world should listen to it and spread laughter around and Roseanne is the same way spread laughter make the world a little bit nicer especially when there's mean girls out there and mean people I just make a joke

I love this!

Phyllis, Lucy, Carol, and now we have Roseanne. The Queens of comedy

love you two together1

Phyllis Diller....a classy lovely lady...down to earth and a good cook...wow to your spaghetti and meatsauce

Well Roseanne you're on my bucket list your number one I would love to meet you I think we were sisters in another lifetime we're so much alike well if you see this get back with me let's make it happen

She reminds me of my aunt. I love her.

The best, male or female. Brilliance.

Phyllis, divine, Rosanne Brilliant!

The only drawback of immortality...No retirement...

They are both very beautiful ladies 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Wow love you both.

I love this video ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

i saw phyllis do a make over to look like fara faucet and it was a beautiful thing , wish i could see it again.

Never ugly!! Beauty in everyone

Rozanne call her Goddess of Comedy-I should be so lucky to live up to her clean standard- they speak of dark and death as funny???.Her hello disarms the audience before they shoot her..nothing kills a meal more than food critic screwing their face up.

intuitive, unlearned comic sense

Love Miss D!

Contrary to what both Phyllis & Roseanne said - death is NO joke. Folks! And the choice as to where we go after that event is very important. There are only two destinations to choose from - make your choice wisely, please!
