I loved her in everything! She was really funny in Raising Hope. I just watched her last night in an episode of the new Mad About You on Prime.
Ha! Beat you to it (8 posts above). I kept it cryptic to see if anyone would figure it out.
So you did, you wily ninja! I actually read that post and conflated it with the movie It’s a Wonderful Life . Where’s the smacky face emoji?
That’s a joke she told on herself. I’m not finding a link or clip of an interview, but it’s referenced here:
I was her… Boyfriend!
Fuck, does life ever improve?
I guess it’s a pretty obvious joke; as a child I just conflated her name with the many commercials I was exposed to.
I was watching an episode of the new season of Mad About You last night and she played a harmless but manipulative patient at the therapist office. Her performance was funny, nuanced, and not maudlin in the least. An amazing actor with incredible range and subtlety.
Very funny lady - I always enjoyed her work! She was particularly memorable as the prune-faced, death-pale, dried-up dominatrix head nurse in High Anxiety:
May she rest in peace.
I remember watching her in Beerfest a few years back and thinking “my God she is such a beautiful woman at her age!”
Aside from any genetic component, and apart from the benefits of taking care of oneself, there is a rejuvenating power in having a sense of humor.
