leenorman Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 Still mad at her for not coming to Jamestown, when she appeeared at Chautauqua Institution, about 10 miles away; but, whomever did the lighting on this very interesting interview should be taken out into the public square and shot!!!! WHAT IS THE H is wrong with her face? Not to mention her make-up person; can't call them an artist, for obvious reasons; not to ignore the hairstylist either; what a mess.. I am embarrassed for her. Interesting that Lucille gave a black-tie baby shower for her; never heard THAT story. Sorry for the RANT; feel a LOT better now. If Ken had shuffled those damn cards one more time, I was going to turn the thing off!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope with that roster of guest stars, Julie is tempted to climb on board for a few episodes of The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt next season! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Posted June 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 It was basically just Carol introducing a handful of (incomplete) sketches, interrupted by pledge breaks. I think the only complete sketch included was The Dentist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I adore Carol and her work, but retrospectives and specials on her work tend to be so repetitive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie2 Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 I looked at the list of sketches featured and figured it wasn't anything special. Those PBS pledge drives drove me INSANE because they always constitute thirty second clips of your favorite shows, interrupted by five minute segments of middle aged women with big glasses and perms answering phones. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvsbway Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 But don't you need a PBS tote bag? Don't donate money unless you plan to pay or Elmo and Betty White will make you flea to a South Seas island. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mot Morenzi Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 Sounds familiar! This is true, but Carol herself contributes to it. Lucy's TV career was at least more varied, it's just in this day and age where everyone focuses on "the chocolate factory" and nothing else. Carol did one show for eleven years and has spent the remainder of her career talking about it, over and over and over again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carol did one show for eleven years and has spent the remainder of her career talking about it, over and over and over again. She does have a habit of keepin' on a subject till it gets sickenin'! No, not really...but when you put it in this context, fans and the general public of course are gonna focus on, zone in on what each are most remembered fondly for, right or wrong, as that's just human nature.... I;ve been a fan of Carol's ever since I can remember but despite the critical acclaim etc. for her dramatic turn in such vehicles as "Friendly Fire" and others (i.e. the one she played the alcoholic, I can't remember the name of it at the moment), I don't care if I ever see them again as both were (naturally) painful to watch in many ways; I'd rather think of Carol for all the laughs and pleasant memories (not that I want to take anything away from her as an actress, far from it). Same with Big Red: despite having seen most of her finer dramatic roles (Big Street first and foremost), I'd much rather think of her in terms of her long-lived Lucy character (even Lucy Barker!) than anything dramatic she ever did (and yes that even includes the overblown, beloved Mame!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
