    This actually felt too short. You can tell both have immense respect and love for each other. So much quality conversation comes out when you pair two unlikely forces. Of course, it would have equally as amazing with similarly accomplished professionals, but this was so beautifully teamed up. I hadn't been aware of how much work Bowen has done behind the scenes. It was endearing to see how much admiration Jean had for Bowen even with all she has done in her career. Talent recognizes talent.

    I’ve loved Jean Smart for 35 years. Charlene is one of my all time favorite comedy characters. I can watch “Designing Women” over and over, and still laugh. Her non stop monologues on the show were hysterical, the story about the designer clothes wearing dog who throws up after eating too many cakes and pies, and Charlene wondering after reading a tabloid if it could be true that “Jackie O and Tony Danza” were dating. Not to mention her too short stint in “High Society”. She always has a warm place in my heart and brings a smile to my face. I had a second cancer diagnosis recently, so I’ve been over dosing on D.W. It makes me forget for 23 minutes and reminds me of when I first met my husband and we’d stay home on Monday nights just to watch Jean.

    Honestly Jean Smart has been brilliant in everything she's done and I look forward to more. And Bowen Yang is bursting with talent and at the start of what I am sure is a fantastic journey ahead. Could listen to them chat for hours.

    I adore Jean Smart, and I am thrilled for all of her successes. As a southern gal who grew up to be an interior designer, it goes without saying that I am a die hard Designing Women fan. It had a huge impact on my life. I joke that my stupid human trick is - I can relate any subject, scenario, person, etc to an episode of DW. I only wish all of the DW cast mates who have passed on were here to celebrate her too. This particular video makes long for Jan Hooks - Carlene Frazier Dobber. ❤️ In a coincidental aside, that will mean absolutely nothing to anyone but me 😊, I used that exact same uber feminine pink toile-inspired fabric (upholstered on the middle upper of her wing back chair) in my first apartment.

Ill give you that it makes sense the pairing because he is a stand up but thats it. What he has to offer jean is very little right now. That doesnt mean he is not talented. It is just a disproportionate pairing. Kenan thompson wouldve made more sense. Thats a guy who has been in comedy since a kid, producing his own show, snl longest running cast member, and he iiiis a front runner for a best actor nom.

      @@ernestonunez3839 buzziest, not busiest...haha! He's the one making the news lately and having a moment this year. There was a campaign to make him a series regular on social media. Also, this isn't about having something to offer the other actor. It's not a class or a therapy session, it's an interview. There's also the juxtaposition of someone having an emergence with someone having a reemergence.
