Oh, these classic ladies of comedy! Gilda was one of the first female stars on Saturday Night Live to show that boys weren't the only ones who could steal the show. From her character Roseanne Rosannadanna, the narcissistic news anchor, to her amazing impersonation of punk legend Patti Smith, Gilda was rad.
One thing I love about
The View is how the ladies never fail to gang up on Barb. When our gal in tie-dye (Whoopi) makes the unfortunate decision to talk threesomes, Barbara proposes to take an informal poll on who's "done it." All of the ladies seize the opportunity to quickly turn the question on Barb.
I love how all the ladies on The View have been giving "the great" Barbara Walters a hard time about any and every embarrassing unmentionable on the planet. From
Barb's peculiar public bathroom behavior to her one-night stand bedroom behavior, these women have discussed it. And discussed it.
Barbara has a phobia of getting locked inside public restroom stalls, so she she avoids them at all costs. But when she must journey into a bathroom, she keeps the door unlocked! Am I the only one frightened by this tidbit of TMI?
I've often thought that "The View" was an embarrassment to women, and this clip certainly doesn't change my mind. The new co-host Sherri Shephard told her other co-hosts that she doesn't know if the earth is round or flat. Either this comedian I've never heard of has her "straight face while telling a joke" down flat (pardon the pun), or she's dumb as bricks.
