You beat me to it RG! A long great life of a Hollywood legend. Known mostly for her stand up routine about how ugly she is Diller appeared on a variety of televison programs throughout the decades on programs ranging from Family Guy to Scooby Doo to Bold and The Beautiful to her own specials as well as several movies.She remained active up until last year. It appears she suffered from complications from a fall recently and died peacefully in her sleep.


I wanted to post the whole episode but apparently copyright problems prevent that.


A couple of her comedy routines!

Being a game show fan, she first appeared playing You Bet Your Life with Groucho Marx. She also did...

Missing Links
Hollywood Squares
The Dating Game*
The Gong Show
Tattletales
Body Language
Super Password**

(*She quizzed 3 bachelorettes to choose a date for her son)
(**At the end of the week, her contestant partner was really a con artist!)

I also remember seeing her do Full House where she made an appearance @ a comedy club, stealing Joey Gladstone's moment.

She will be missed.

This woman was really funny.

I don't care if any movie or tv show she did in her life was considered bad; she honestly made me laugh in anything she was in.
