God bless Jackie! She's wonderful!

[@mikedescoteaux2840]

i loved, loved this series. i wish they could create a new season based on other actual facts that are not in the book the series was based on

[@mikefilimon1584]

Love “Mamacita/Dragacita!” haha 😂

[@tillyboos]

I LOVE Jackie Hoffman, have for YEARS and YEARS and YEARS.........I think I first remembered her from Kissing Jessica Stein.

[@irisheyes4935]

Loved Mamacita....

[@kylejnicholson]

Ryan Murphy will use her again.

[@teeniebeenie8774]

she is awesome

[@tillyboos]

He'd be STUPID not to.

[@bweb6]

The interviewer looks terrified at times throughout this conversation 😆

[@marjoriemargel1567]

B I think she’s realizes how out of her depth she is with this talented Second City Alumni. Wow. Laura sucks here.

[@lindasturm699]

Jackie was great!!

[@zeemedia-c4g]

She also voiced "Connie Crane" from "Disney's PB&J Otter"!

[@teeniebeenie8774]

looooooooooove her shows hilarious.

[@sanfrancisco89]

Is this filmed in the old Tower Records store at 4th and Broadway. If so, I worked right across the street from here in the 80s.

[@suzannebear4194]

Kinda reminds me of the great Ruth Buzzy

[@morganolfursson2560]

Except mamacita was nothing like the film describes her. She was shy and servile and was truly a maid . Her job was to be invisible and make sure everything was clean and tidy. There was no friendship or going to restaurants sort of thing. She was the maid and was treated as such . Crawford hired her because she couldn't speak English and therefore would not understand most of the things said . The kind of cold ballsy image they show in Feud is so far from reality . Joan would have never put up with any of that shit . My grand mother knew Joan very well and they often had tea , she also knew Anna Marie Brinke and there was none of the friendly relationship shown in feud . We were watching feud together the other day and she laughed all the way , saying "as if Joan would take Marie to the restaurant, or as if Joan would put up with that kind of attitude" It was the 60s , a maid was a maid not a friend . Joan had friends . And also always according to my grand mother who knew Crawford until the end and even went to her funerals , Marie is the one who abandoned Joan at her weakest and went back to Germany with apparently a few of Joan's possessions, like jewelry and precious collectible . She actually stabbed Joan in the back more than anyone else . But this is Hollywood and as my grand mother says, they are of course going to turn the thief back stabbing maid into a heroine , because she was a Jew . Had she been black she wouldn't even be in Feud . Sorry but i trust my grand mother a true close friend of Joan over Hollywood .

Morgan Olfursson Fascinating. It’s nice to hear a first person account from your Grandmother, and you. I was too young, didn’t personally meet JC, but my family knew her in the business too. Nice to hear your story.Thank you.

[@grammy965]

Morgan your full of crap

[@benfisher1376]

Yes, but this whole series was about revisionism, I guess. Not much was realistic, it was about projecting a 21st century interpretation.

[@tiffythekewlchick3457]

Wait...she was in the Chocalate Factory😂😂 LET ME SEE THISSS HOLD UPPPP

[@vitothepizzaguy7475]

Interviewer: your chemestry with her is really good Jackie:Thanks...yeah...cool

[@IvanVasilievOfficial]

Funny and loud, opposite to Mamacita lol

[@Malignus68]

Annoyingly loud. She doesn't seem to know what microphones are for. At least I understand her enormous mouth now.

[@farhajhassan8516]

Excuse me, who is this awesome host?

[@beachstreet101]

Awesome interviewer!

[@karltaylor4455]

You can stop using the word "badass". It's getting old. I'm glad Jackie is ripping her a new one at times

[@shwt121]

Jackie ROX....!!!!!😆😄😃

[@MrJulien100]

Hilarous/awkward

[@eltiochusma]

Pretty much like life, really.

[@suzannebear4194]

Also she's having the interviewer for lunch yikes!

[@richardwilson1234]

Do they have a training school for bad interviewers?

[@richardwilson1234]

And I hope Graham Norton gets Jackie Hoffman on his show.

[@danielsparrow3701]

Give the poor girl a break, she's clearly a Jackie Hoffman fan! I think she's lovely

[@beachstreet101]

She was incredible at interviewing her. She definitely did her research.

[@Mike-fp5rc]

Oy~ now that is one mieskeit.

[@rogeliogonzalez3300]

the guys from the audience from the q&q are always the same :s

[@81jeremylbradley]

You lost me at feminist.... @2:28. The interviewer is so unprofessional.

[@teeniebeenie8774]

sexy dame !!!

[@peterb7189]

So it was all fuckin children

[@LatinaKamilla]

Jackie came off a bit arrogant tbh...and she should do research on the characters she plays. There’s a reason Jessica Lange is so loved and appreciated by her peers.

[@sambrownsings]

Lol. Jackie will never be Jessica Lange and she doesn’t want to be. That’s why she’s great

[@nicolemonrue]

The interviewer is....too much

[@kcook7921]

The cringiest interviewer ever

[@beachstreet101]

She was great actually.

[@SWAluv]

Love Jackie, but the Hostess if awful!!!!
