Here is a scene from one of Dame Edna's few American TV specials. In this scene, she interviews Roseanne Barr Arnold, at the peak of Roseanne's popularity.
Saw Dame Edna years ago in Century City, CA, and I don't know why and really can't explain it, ... but you laugh uncontrollably. Can't believe I missed her in 2009. Please come back to L.A. before you retire !!!
OMG! I thought you were talking about Tom Arnold for a minute there. No one has ever said that about him. He looks like he is going through heavy withdrawal right there on the set.
@@AmandaClody For the men, it depends. Mel Gibson, of all people, seemed comfortable (probably an act), Elton John (well, duh!), Willard Scott, were. Jay Leno on the other hand acting like he had a martian on the set. Lighten up I wanted to scream.
@PuffLippy06 - I've never experienced humor where the 100th viewing is just as funny as the first. In fact, I now have washboard abs from doubling over and squealing so many times from that one line!
Dame Edna is the best -- especially love the grimace faces she makes when one of the guests gets too winded - and with Tom Arnold that is often , he is so boring !! Thanks for posting this hilarious clip .
why has no one mentioned the way tom is acting..look at his feet and the way he keeps rubbing his hands..hes pure wired on something! and we all know roseanne ended it because of his drug addiction..hes making me nervous
***** he had a major coke problem.been clean 26 years now. on pain killers now though. John Goodmen too. He sweat so much on the show. They are no longer doing it. pain killers are the devil. I warn all people not to touch them. The doctors love to give them out , get people hooked and then wont help them,and end up on herion. very sad.
Hey - Forgot Puff Lippy password, so I made new acct! THAT makes more sense! I didn't have you tube to watch until the last few years to figure it out! I loaned my tape to a friend & (together) Never Got It Back...Thanks!
As a major Roseanne fan, I never knew the aspect of the loose meat sandwich from the Lanford Lunch Box was another element based on Roseanne’s real life.
To me, there is something very sexy about Roseanne. Not sure if it her face, her laugh or what, but she had something. As for Edna, simply a classic. Tom...hmmm moving on hahaha.
When boring is the new funny, Tom Arnold will become a massive celebrity. Roseanne has no grace. She should have said that, at least where Edna is concerned, she could never compete for Tom.
@johnbobspongepants You're bloody right I reckon!. Just look at Tom's hands, they look like two octopus's (correctly, octopii), wrestling, not a good look.
Tom is like a pet. Does anything for a treat and happy to be there.
Love Roseanne's laugh!
"What a character you are Tom" Looks at camera with subtle look of boredom, ha ha, fucking genius.

Tom's a real drag on the comedy here. What a needy guy.
mary turula zxzxxxxx 🥥
The most naturally talented comedian ever I think, and I acknowledge what a big statement that is. The guy needs a Knighthood for real!
OMG! I thought you were talking about Tom Arnold for a minute there. No one has ever said that about him. He looks like he is going through heavy withdrawal right there on the set.
"oh what a character you are Tom.." (glower)
Best ever
The facial expressions never cease to be funny!
Love Dame Edna's faces when Tom's explaining the loose meat sandwich. Would have liked it if he'd let Roseanne speak a bit more.
Edna will be missed forever!
WOW Tom Arnold is totally coked off his head.
"Is it a bit tight at first and then it gets *looser,* does it? On its... its *journey*?" ROFLA
4:55 Classic Dame Edna. It's insulting, derogatory and funny as hell.
OMG I love Dame Ednas face at 3:21 hahahahaha
Dame Edna and Roseanne are two comic geniuses. Very funny. Oz meets Utah.
Oh dear gawd! :p
Tom Arnold is as high as a kite. Christ.
What's wrong with that?
Lots of druggies online who think that's normal
My thoughts exactly. He can't even relax. He doesn't come across well at all in this clip.
She is brilliant.....what a character
Wow Tom can't hold still for a moment . He is tweaking hard
What a genius Dame Edna was...Good ol' 90's shows!
Thanks for posting! I hadn't seen it since it aired in 1993.
7:29 best part
I think Roseanne is a lot cooler than most people give her credit for. She completely 'gets' Dame Edna and is having such fun with her.
Women comedians were comfortable with Barry/Dame Edna.. The men were uncomfortable
@@AmandaClody For the men, it depends. Mel Gibson, of all people, seemed comfortable (probably an act), Elton John (well, duh!), Willard Scott, were. Jay Leno on the other hand acting like he had a martian on the set. Lighten up I wanted to scream.
The comment about Roseanne is a comment that didn't age too well, did it now?
@@boxsterman77 Yeah. I apologize, lol.
"I'll tell you exactly what I was thinking Thomas..I was thinking toilet paper" lmao you have to love the Dame!!
"Do you deliver? No, we do lamb, chicken and fish" P. Kay
I met Dame Edna in 2002-what a hoot!
Dame Edna invented Amazon omg
Thank gawd for RUclips! Besides recipes it's the only decent thing about the internet.
Class and trash, I love it!

...this dress of Dame Edna is something...those shells :-)))
:D :D
What? Is Tom nervous? Or tweeking?
Cocaine
I thought she was irritating ! But next to him she's not !!!
Lolz... Tom trying so hard to be funny in the presence of those two. If only he had an ounce of talent.
Yeah, or an ounce of dignity to stay quiet.
Roseanne being the epitome of talent i suppose 🙄
And contain the fact he's high
good lord! how high do you have to be to do the dame edna show, tom?
Dame Edna is the best -- especially love the grimace faces she makes when one of the guests gets too winded - and with Tom Arnold that is often , he is so boring !!
Thanks for posting this hilarious clip .
Get out, Janster, I am sooo jealous. Long live Dame Edna, a goddess in her own right!
That's the future of shopping and it's getting eerily close.
Barry Humphries has been funny since 1959 to my knowledge and enjoyment.
I miss Dame Edna's talk shows, and miss Tom Arnold being in movies
That was hysterical.
why has no one mentioned the way tom is acting..look at his feet and the way he keeps rubbing his hands..hes pure wired on something! and we all know roseanne ended it because of his drug addiction..hes making me nervous
Now May 2020 and Dame Edna was 'panic' buying toilet paper back then? Must've had a lot of foresight ;-)
i love Roseanne, an awesome funny woman
And a racist 😵
@@celebstagram oh horeshit how many black comedians on abc make fun of white people and how they look.
love the belly laughs!!!
Earlier in the show, Dame Edna had Tom tied up in bed. She referred to this when Roseanne first arrived.
Edna still got the last laugh, even on that, though
Both of them fighting over who got to make the stupid cheese pump joke. Uff. “It’s good cos it’s comes from a pump” Roseanne & Tom in sync.
Dame Edna is on point as always,but kudos to Tom "but isn't every night your colonic night really".
funny as hell
Two very very people.. I don't consider Arnold as anything.
Hey Tom - quit your fidgeting!
Roseanne reminds me of my mom!! Same acts and talks!!
The TV......!!!!!
Roseanne is a legend!
She's a whiney bitch
Tom is wearing pink sweatpants and a green and black striped sweater.
@LimitedNewsCorp - I did until my waters broke: Dame Edna caused them to break - and I'm GLAD she did!
Ro and Tom not long to last- see how Ro doesn’t) greet/ acknowledge him when she comes out. Wow!
@sonicfan23 - Dame Edna is actually Barry Humphreys an Australian comedian with 50 years on the stage, one of the world's smartest comics bar none.
ive finally figured out who tom reminds me of, the dad from poltergeist
WOW
Dame Edna funny as ever.
I.can't.believe.they.were.married.
sHE is THE ultimate!!!!!
@elkirbster..... he was on coke for years is why he was so fidgety...he readily admits to it now
Holy shit Tom is tweaking so much. His hand and feet are all over the place Jesus!
***** he had a major coke problem.been clean 26 years now. on pain killers now though. John Goodmen too. He sweat so much on the show. They are no longer doing it. pain killers are the devil. I warn all people not to touch them. The doctors love to give them out , get people hooked and then wont help them,and end up on herion. very sad.
jakob manzella sorry, he has been off the pain killers . He got help for that. Very good for him.. kudo's:)
4:48 😭😂

RIP Dame Edna
why is he so fidgety...
He was high on cocaine!
im guessing around 1994-1996
Dammit, now I want a loose meat sandwich, and/or a slugburger, and/or a pigsear sandwich with hotsauce. Gimme gimme gimme!
Why is Tom there?
@OrangeCounty26 Roseanne beloings on the Mount Rushmore of female comedians with Moms Mabley, Phyllis Diller, and Lucille Ball.
3:54 Man she's beautiful
+Cameron Wilson ???
I agree ❤️
Roseanne is particularly beautiful here, I agree as well!
Roseanne is particularly beautiful here, I agree as well!
I will say she did look kinda hot here from some angles.
@sonicfan23 It's funny as fuck that people around the world don't know who or what edna is. Ali G not too original really.
Why does tom look short here
Funny, that woman on the end of the sofa doesn't want anything to do with Roseanne.
juslookin3 That is what the character of Madge does with all female guests on Edna's shows.
LMFAO
To me, there is something very sexy about Roseanne. Not sure if it her face, her laugh or what, but she had something. As for Edna, simply a classic. Tom...hmmm moving on hahaha.
OMG! That Tom is something else, ain’t he? As what they say the light is on but nobody’s home. Glad Roseanne got tired of him fast.
Roseanne actually has a very pretty face
OMG why did they let Tom on tv in that condition
What is up with Tom???? Is he totally spun or simply nervous?
Roseanne is good fun
Oh wait Roseanne and Tom seperated in 1994 so maybe around 1991-1992
As funny as this is, the interactive transcript is funnier.
I know that's SO funny! (Btw, I think she says "in reality, not verily) :)
When boring is the new funny, Tom Arnold will become a massive celebrity. Roseanne has no grace. She should have said that, at least where Edna is concerned, she could never compete for Tom.
Tom is definitely coked out
@johnbobspongepants
You're bloody right I reckon!.
Just look at Tom's hands, they look like two octopus's (correctly, octopii), wrestling, not a good look.
Anything around this time of Rosie's life is a bit uncomfortable to watch, you just know it's utter misery behind the scenes.
I don't mean to sound shallow but what the hell is with Tom's pink jogging pants and striped top? LOL
I so want that FOOd. Have not had a carb since ...years. A juicy burger ziisus give me.
that loose-meat sandwich sounds disgusting. i'll pass, thank-you
i dont get it why did she divorce Bill Pentland was he supposed to be dan sdid she have a real husband names Dan?
@SuspiciouslyDLicious You must feel it in your waters like I do possum
You know it's good cheese cuz it comes in a pump.
Tom is so humourless. Roseanne kinda gets it.
The body language between Tom and Roseanne was non-existent
