I miss seeing these Crime Stoppers PSA announcements after Motorweek on KBTC PBS channel 28.

linda when I see you or john forsythe I regret that this time is over. You two are the couple, even if it was only on TV, a couple that reflects what love should look like. I love you both so much

My rapist father was there in the 80's. I fucking hate that bastard. They let him out but he's dead now. He should have never been released but hey man, the 80's were wild. This shit was ignored until a fucker was charged at least 3 or 4 times and even then the sentences were shit.

I used to see John out and about in Seattle. He always was nice and courteous.

Is this the house she rented to Dolly Parton in California? I didn't think she sold her ranch in Oregon. The kitchen looks identical to the one she had in her house on the ranch though.

So funny!

Americans really have a poor taste.

My bullshit detector pegged out. Rick Jordan was lying out his ass!

love that lady

One of the nicest/greatest guys to bless our Northwest. Yes, I was on his show like hundreds of others and JP treated each kid like he knew you personally. TV certainly will never be the same.

Wait a minute. He says he’s completely satisfied with how his new recording turned out and makes a brief reference to the musicians on the date. And you don’t ask him to identify any of them? Just because you didn’t think of that follow up question beforehand is no excuse.

Wait

Hi john let me introduce my self my real name is tony Figgiani my stage name was Tony Gerard I had the honor of appearing with this wonderfull lady at Caesar’s town and country club Rochester my 1977 year I was her opening act what a thrill As an up and coming singer phyills was impressed With the way I sang she said to me when I came off stage without a rehearsal with 17 musicians You. Were great I was very happy to hear that from her what a great lady I never thought this could Happen to me she also knew that I appeared with Rodney dangerfield 10 times at his club in New York City I never will forget how nice she was to me This is a true story Thank you Phyills Love Tony Gerard I live in Tamarac Florida

That awkward look she had at the very end

This is like looking into the past.

What a great wonderful woman, one of my favorites

she worth 50 something millions! bet shes happy camper!!

Can’t hear a word he is saying.

JP & Bob Newman were brilliant ad libbing comics that took what could have been a short lived humdrum "paycheck job" and turned it all into a major force of fun and inspiration for the North West. These guys created something truly special and touched thousands of lives as they did it. They deserve their status of treasured icons.

It is no longer in use now.

Linda kept the home almost identical to how my grandma had it. Those chairs in the dining area. I can never forget those.

Amazing writer and woman RIP Ann.

That's not a mansion 😂😂. Omg, it's a typical house for that part of Lakewood. The mansions are on the other side of town, where I grew up.

Looks like full house episode showing credits :)

love the house

The most awkward handshake at 1:23. What's crazy is my family used to own this home. The Christmas tree we had in that living room was EPIC

When I was a kid I would beg to stay up late when she was on tv. She was hilarious.

John, this is a terrific video and I enjoyed it so much that I forwarded it to my friends.

Exploration Northwest was on TV KOMO4 my whole young life. It seemed no limits to our outbacks and small communities, tradition was fun and wild maybe dangerous and this show did it all.

I have the "Swingin' the Blues" cd. It is excellent. One of my favorite discs. :)

Francais svp

i cry when i realize ive read everything she ever wrote and there is no more..thanks for the stories

rest in peace, ann. i'll always be a fan of yours :)

Well I worked and lived there 75-80, actually loved my job fixing the boats and operating them and got paid for it.

I was there 96-97 and remember the great view of Rainier from the yard!

Music is too loud.

She 90yrs old here- raised 5 kids-started her career at 40yrs-lived here since 1965-housewife never killed anyone-why take a chance she says-Bobs her mentor!Her autobiog is called 'Lampshde in a whorehouse' must read.Colourful wig room-her wedding ring turned her body green.Entertain to the (3 to 80yrs audience) dont show off is her mantra-she likes Rozanne Barr Jack Benny.

Phyllis Diller and Lucille Ball were such ground-breakers for women in comedy and in the show-biz industry. I was too young to watch them when they were in their heydeys, but I watched their re-runs and films and just loved them. Many generations of comedians (male and female) owe everything to these two women.

Definitely one of Ann Rule's most interesting books I've ever read.

is it bad to be proud that i come from the family that owned this island? this is very interesting what im finding out about my family's past.

I have unlimited respect for this woman. She is a legend for ever!

In the last 1 1/2 years, I have become a huge Ann Rule fan. She writes the stories as if I were watching it in a movie. I will continue to read her books. Thanks Ann.

I loved her work, whenever I saw her. I hope she is enjoying her transition and is surrounded by family and friends.

God bless Phyllis and her family. She had a wonderful life and was such an iconic comedian. Allot of modern comedians could learn allot from her as well as other icons like Red Skellton.

thanks Phyllis for making life funny!!!

Such a great lady. I've tears running down my face because this beautiful person brought so much joy to me for many, many years. She was one of God's gifts to us. RIP, Phyllis. ♥

Oh phyllis we will miss you! You have made me laugh for 40 years, We will miss you RIP.

one of my childhood friends actually lived next door to her! We once lost a hula hoop in her yard (went right through the gates.

I love her books and she seems so down to earth easy to see why people want to talk to her.

John, this is Dennis Sparling son of Robert and Agnes Sparling; my cousin is Chuck and Visenta Sparling--there son Cappy Sparling. I graduated Bellevue High School 62--are we related? my KZbin is next to yours.
