Joan Rivers passes

[G.]

She could be annoying, but this woman was FUNNY. You have to catch her off network TV to believe me (not E!). :laugh:

RIP

Actually she was pretty ruthless in Fashion Police, and although the obscene stuff always gets bleeped you pretty much could figure out what she said. The only reason to watch that show was to hear her take apart Kim, Kanye, Bieber, et al.

She will be missed . . . . by most. ;)

Sorry to see her go. She could be brutally funny. Thanks for the laughs, Joan. RIP

A few years ago, Comedy Central roasted her.

Her rebuttal was amazing.

That's great :rofl: NSFW, but great.

Considering when she broke through with her first appearance on the Tonight Show she was one of the only, if not the only female stand up comedian.

There is a great episode of Louie where she gives him professional advice on a night he thought his career was over. Pretty authentic exchange I think... And funny, but it showed me the respect she gets in the profession.

Not always a fan of Peggy Noonan, but that was a moving, and telling, tribute.
