Gilda Radner died 19 years ago today. Rosanne Rosannadanna, Baba Wawa, Emily Litella (never mind) – and all the other characters she created as part of the Not Ready For Prime Time Players are all gone with her. I miss her and the old Saturday night live. I miss Jon Lovitz as the pathological liar (ya ya that’s the ticket) and Dana Carvey as the church lady – I remember the skit where the church lady interviewed a parody of Tammy Faye Baker (that was redundant) – classic.
My Big Bang Theory favorite quote for Monday night was
– I’m glad you are learning Mandarin
– Why?
– Because when you are fluent you will have a billion other people to annoy besides me
We had company for a few minutes and I missed the end of the show – aaar!
