Her WTF interview last week was terrific.
I liked it, but there were a lot of disappointing omissions

Yeah, to be honest, I'm not familiar with her stand-up. But I love her in general, and she's a personal hero of my wife's.

Roseanne and Frasier are two shows that I skipped when I was younger, but then my wife had me watch them and I'm so much better for it. Golden Girls, too.

We DVR'd a bunch of seasons of Roseanne to watch, and for some inane reason the channel skipped the episode where Fisher beats up Jackie. I think it was on Logo, too, which seems like a channel that would be fine with airing controversial episodes.

Just caught that one the other day. Fuck, what a great piece of television.
