The more I’ve read and learned about Phyllis, the more fascinating she became. She wasn’t just a comic; she was a classical pianist, a designer, a tough businesswoman, and a mother to five children. Amazing life.
I love Phyllis she was definitely a wonderful person and woman. She was classy. She didn't have to cuss to get a laugh. She may be gone but she will be missed.
Dunno if anyone gives a damn but if you're stoned like me atm you can watch all the new series on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my gf these days xD
I always bust out in laughter when I watch any Phyllis Diller reruns. She was the best comedian who could make anyone laugh with just a facial expression.
when I visited PD I got her homemade cookies and they were awful!!! and I thought they would be great, as a reaction she said you should taste my pancakes they are something to die for!!!!
This is one of the best interviews I have seen of Miss Diller. The interviewer is excellent and doesn't interrupt her like a lot of them seem to do nowadays.
Heavens to Murgatroid ! What a wondefully entertaining & heartwarming interview ! Two thumbs up ! I adore this lady & her talent ! How sad she's not longer with us... :-(
"A homeless family of seven." Comedy is an amazing source of healing. Phyllis Diller is a powerful force for all girls and women to aspire. Death will never descend on her story of success or her wonderful sense of humour. What an inspiration for all of us. Thanks Phyllis for all the years of smiles and laffter. 1917 - 2012
Brilliant interview, David Hartnell. So well prepared you were. Heavens, I miss Phyllis! Got to spend an afternoon at her house in 2008. Such a thrill.
A friend of mine in NYC was her doorman at the Lombardi hotel . He described her as a generous, delightful lady . He also described her apartment decor as everything purple .
I am so sad that I never got to see her perform her and Joan Rivers are legends and I would have loved to seen her and Don Rickles Pur classic art and very genuine
I've been watching so much Phyliss Diller Lately, she is like a woman I grew up With...Just Beautiful! I was looking for the Doc that talked about her Artwork as I knew she was an Artists beyond Comedy!
I have enjoyed many presentations by her and people like Bob Hope, Jack Lemmon, and many appearances on Ed Sullivan and other talk shows. So many great memories...
Wonderful house. I always liked a rambling ranch. And Phyllis is terrific. I had one of her first albums but don't remember which one. I love that she said when on the Sonny&Cher show "my God people are eating" Very funny line. Boy, the interviewer knew a lot about her. Ends too abruptly

Phyllis such a Beautiful Talented Lady💃🎶. she supported her kids n husband worked herself to Fame.☀️ A very Funny Comedic Actress😊🌷🌷We Adore Her♥️🌷🌷😊🌷🌸🌸💃😊
180 degrees opposite her character in the 60's sitcom 'The Pruitts of Southhampton', where she played a woman living in a mansion after all the money was lost to taxes.
All those murdered Animals made me sick. I had a fur coat in my 20s but never again. Its pure evil to do that to a living being. I stopped watching when she said Fox. They are like a cross between a Dog and a Cat. Who could do that ? 🤮🤮🤮
The culture was very different in the '60's when she acquired those. She was really such an animal lover she had large bug pets. Forgive what you saw, and I did as well.
Editing is choppy and that in itself is distracting, ruining what might've been a good segment. The other 19(I'm the 20th) who gave this a thumbs-down may well have had the same, or similar opinion.

I agree! You can add painter to the list. Such an amazing soul.
I love Phyllis she was definitely a wonderful person and woman. She was classy. She didn't have to cuss to get a laugh. She may be gone but she will be missed.
What an excellent interview. Phyllis was such a down to earth person. RIP Phyllis....you are a comedy legend.

@Tomas Gibson yea, I have been using instaflixxer for since november myself =)
When I saw her on Groucho Marx, I thought she was BEAUTIFUL, and so graceful!
I always bust out in laughter when I watch any Phyllis Diller reruns. She was the best comedian who could make anyone laugh with just a facial expression.
Top shelf woman...RIP
Bless her.
I love you Phyllis.
Her face lift was successfully done
when I visited PD I got her homemade cookies and they were awful!!! and I thought they would be great, as a reaction she said you should taste my pancakes they are something to die for!!!!
Her fav book was magic of believing!
💐🇦🇺🇺🇸
Still funny
She looks so much more attractive in older age was it surgery?
This is one of the best interviews I have seen of Miss Diller. The interviewer is excellent and doesn't interrupt her like a lot of them seem to do nowadays.
What a treat of a woman :-) To be able to visit with madame Diller, sit in her scarlet scullery and hear all those stories.
I was very fortunate to receive a signed 8 x 10 glossy of her in Vietnam with Bob Hope shortly before she passed away. I treasure it.
You gotta LOVE Phyllis Diller!
RIP Sweet Lady!
I loved Phillis Diller!"She was sooo funny and I loved the interviews of her. She's sweet and down to Earth. Such a icon!
Heavens to Murgatroid ! What a wondefully entertaining & heartwarming interview ! Two thumbs up ! I adore this lady & her talent ! How sad she's not longer with us... :-(

She was 95. A good long life!

Loved reading your thoughtful & perceptive comment ! Thanks so sharing !
Such a hoot and intelligent and kind
Not like the crap today
Well said and well put, David ! THANKS for your comment !
Agree 100%. Love her.
Brilliant interview, David Hartnell. So well prepared you were. Heavens, I miss Phyllis! Got to spend an afternoon at her house in 2008. Such a thrill.
Awesome interview. Love her. 💕
So glad she found true love. She deserved it. What a lady!
Phyllis Diller was an amazing talent! She was a fascinating lady :-)
Loved Phyllis, and couldn’t agree more with her about swimming pools, money pits, wish I’d never put one in.
My mom absolutely adored her. I think Phyllis and Carol Burnett were her idols.
Such a delight. Love, love, love her!
What a great gal!
Phyllis was a genuine, warm, real woman, in a VERY different time! how those times and she is missed!
At 89 she looks fabulousm surgery or not, Phylis was great
Amen to that !! :-)
This lady is INCREDIBLE!
Love this intelligent and very funny women. A true comedian and a classic.
Read her book and I don't care WHAT the title is. It's exactly as she says! She is fascinating!!
I grew up with and loved Phyllis Diller. God Bless her and Fang.
Phyllis once said in an interview that she originally referred to her husband as 'old fang face'. She later shortened it to 'Fang'.
A friend of mine in NYC was her doorman at the Lombardi hotel . He described her as a generous, delightful lady . He also described her apartment decor as everything purple .
My Dad worked for SCE he was on call with another worker to fix the wireing at her house. They said she was so nice!
She is a true legend. Unfortunately they don't make them like Phyllis Diller anymore. She paved the way for every single female comedian after her!
She was brilliant , so endearing .
I want to have her plastic surgeon's phone number. She looked fantastic after that complete face lift she had.
Which one?
Now we know why the Dean Martin Roasts were so darn funny. LOL
I am so sad that I never got to see her perform her and Joan Rivers are legends and I would have loved to seen her and Don Rickles Pur classic art and very genuine
OMG she bought that house when I was born. But she has been my favorite comedian since I was little😂😹🤗
oh jeez isnt she wonderful
Such a kind and wonderful person in real life she was. Still love her!
that laugh, gonna have to get her book. amazing woman. an pretty good on that pump organ and harpsichord.
So interesting, accomplished, and fun. One of a kind!
Time goes by way too fast. Thank you for sharing these memories!
I got kidnapped in San Francisco CA at 3 minutes old
I love that house. Her personality sure came through.
Bravo!
Thank you so much for this!
♥️
A UNIQUE FANTASTIC COMEDIAN...!!!
I have a notion to second that emotion !! :-)
Beautiful home. She did well for self in showbiz
She was excited about life! How great is that?🐓🍏
Her home show be turned into a museum. A national treasure for sure
Unfortunately, her home was sold after her death ànd torn down to make way for a big modern mansion. The stained glass windows were saved.
@@hollywood101usa oh man how horrible. Thanks for letting me know
Robert Mitchum named his goldfish "Dookie" 😳
ah the dqys when we had journalists who knew how to interview..........wonderful
She was a genius and an incredible woman! I love that she painted and played piano too!! Rip we miss you Phyllis
She was so different. I grew up watching here. Loved her.
I MISS HER!
Wonderful lady.
The best!......her looks were out there.....Phyllis Diller the original punk rocker......a true STAR 🌟
I've been watching so much Phyliss Diller Lately, she is like a woman I grew up With...Just Beautiful! I was looking for the Doc that talked about her Artwork as I knew she was an Artists beyond Comedy!
I have enjoyed many presentations by her and people like Bob Hope, Jack Lemmon, and many appearances on Ed Sullivan and other talk shows. So many great memories...
Wonderful house. I always liked a rambling ranch. And Phyllis is terrific. I had one of her first albums but don't remember which one. I love that she said when on the Sonny&Cher show "my God people are eating" Very funny line. Boy, the interviewer knew a lot about her. Ends too abruptly
What a fabulous legend RIP 💐💐💐💐💐💐
THAT is how you live a life.
Really liked Phyllis Diller
This was a wonderful, funny woman she was a great lady and she had a great sense of humor and a wonderful laugh
Phyllis Diller wanted to look glamorous and that is why she had all those surgeries.
Funny lady RIP...

Love this woman!

An absolute Icon..

She was a hoot !
I wish she had made harpsichord recordings.
She and Cloris Leachman could have played duets.
Phyllis is a legend. Always loved the Pruits of South Hampton when I was young . She deserves that bust .
She sounds a bit slurred during this interview I wonder if she was recovering from a stroke
what year was this?
2006
She must have done pretty good as a comic to afford those houses and cars or married money or both I guess
Lovely!
Perfect!
gostei muito da senhora e da sua casa nao conhecia esta actriz so tem bom gosto
Absolutely Fabulous Ms Diller a spectacular artist in all ways
All of her beautiful possessions sold for peanuts!
That's sad
All those murdered Animals made me sick. I had a fur coat in my 20s but never again. Its pure evil to do that to a living being. I stopped watching when she said Fox. They are like a cross between a Dog and a Cat. Who could do that ? 🤮🤮🤮

She probably wouldn’t have them today.
All of her furs were from animals that passed away naturally... either that, or they laughed themselves to death.
She was a classy Lady and was born when furs were the thing.
Editing is choppy and that in itself is distracting, ruining what might've been a good segment. The other 19(I'm the 20th) who gave this a thumbs-down may well have had the same, or similar opinion.
What a crybaby. You’d prefer if it wasn’t uploaded and no one was able to see it? Get a clue.
She was so cool the world misses her 😎
