Product Description

Phyllis Diller’s brand of comedy is as timeless today as it was in the 1960s, when she became a regular on popular variety and talk shows. From her outrageous costumes to wildly teased hair, Diller was a pioneer among female comediennes, paving the way for future stars. Who can forget her hilarious housekeeping and marriage tips, her beleaguered husband Fang, her cackling laugh and self-deprecating sense of humor? Phyllis Diller: Not Just Another Pretty Face highlights some of her best routines. Special guest stars such as Don Rickles and Dean Martin make this a fun trip back in time.

5.0 out of 5 stars You Gotta Love Her!!, May 31, 2008

By	William G. Ratcliffe "wearevinyl" (Lawrenceville, New Jersey United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Since Phyllis was rather popular when i was younger (late 60's), I cannot imagine any female comic not saying 'thank you' to Phyllis for opening doors. Here is a delightful dvd that includes a few of her tv specials. I don't remember these when they were first shown on tv, I guess I was in bed early or something.
Her outrageous outfits, perfect timing, clean jokes, and special guests makes this dvd a good evening for those who would like to experience her wit, and happy go lucky attitude.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not a Very Funny DVD, October 7, 2009

By	Kathleen C. Taylor "AllKitziWrote" (Tampa) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

In her day, Phyllis Diller was entertaining, hilarious, and a trailblazer for women in comedy. Unfortunately, humor, like clothing, changes with the times. Diller's fast-paced, vaudevillian gags worked well back in the sixties, and even the seventies. But the wisecracking, quick-response stand-up is no longer funny. These performances have great value in the history of humor: but they are just not funny anymore.

Great laughs here and there. Not quite as funny as I'd thought it would be.
