Buy Lily's CD, called Lily Tomlin- This is a Recording...instead of this vcr tape of Peak Exp. The other CD is much better, than this vcr version! Peak Experiences is very short/poor quality & does not do justice to the great Ernestine.

I LOVE Ernestine. I love Lily Tomlin. Naturally this is a MUST HAVE. You get 3 clips on this video.
1. Ernestine's 1st appearance on "Laugh In"
2. A Satuday Night Live commercial parady that is a minute
3. Ernestine's apprearance on a TV special called "Live and In Person" in which she "Flashdances".

These are all very funny, classic clips. I can't wait for this video to get a DVD release.

The problem/issue here is......Lily's Ernestine is such a great character that has been around for so long that it must've been hard to pick a select 3 clips to put on this video. I think instead of it being 15 minutes, this "best of" Ernestine video should've been an hour or two. There are many wonderful appearances that Lily/Ernestine has done on many shows, including Laugh In, over the years that why stop at 15 minutes? We LOVE Ernestine. Keep her coming!!! Like the previous review mentioned, the CD "This Is A Recording" was a record of the Grand Miss E and was/is hysterical. This video should have had the same premise. Just put together hysterical bits of Ernestine. We'll eat it up.
In any event, we love ya Lily.

This video is packed with a half an hour of fun with Ernestine! The Mr. Veedle, We're The Telophone Company, Flashdance, and Tonight Show skits remain hilarious and do not suffer from age. The Mr. Veedle skit was on her "This Is a Recording" album as well.

This video is a bit short, but the quality is high. Fans of Lily Tomlin and her caustic, incisive comedic wit should seek this one out.
