Gilda Radner Calls The Real Life Emily Litella | Letterman

[@cammieg4381]

I feel privileged!!! We got to hear the ORIGINAL "Never Mind"!! Thank You Gilda - we love you and miss you terribly! ❤

[@johnboys4697]

such a sweet thing calling her and hearing the voice she was a good sport!

[@gdb520brig8]

“As long as there’re laughing, that’s all that matters”. Best quote this year.

[@reesespeanutbuttercups7584]

well, of the year 83, not sure about this year though

[@halfstep44]

I like your screen name, buttercup ​@@reesespeanutbuttercups7584

"As long as they're laughing it's ok" what an angel.

[@GardenGirlD76]

So very sweet!! Talented Gilda lost way too soon, never forgotten!

[@denabergman6543]

SNL had some of the best. Gilda’s comedic timing and originality set the bar high.

[@miltoncallan1471]

I love Gilda. She was so wholesome and truly funny. Tragic loss.

[@Tommyr]

Gilda will always be awesome.

[@DaddyOfTheSugarVariety]

Gilda seemed so sweet & funny!

[@gailreese4102]

Still have my copy of the book. Gilda was a gem!

[@TJamesBell]

Gilda kind of choked up a little bit there when they were saying goodbye. Her getting a little emotional kind of made me verklempt. I miss her.

[@sanityassassin8161]

I'm sehr verklempt as well...😥

[@lindahuff8976]

My dad used to laugh so hard at her characters that he would almost fall out of his reclincer. Great, great talent.

[@maryannr8464]

Gilda, so talented, so beautiful the world lost a true talent too soon.

[@kasondaleigh]

She was so beautiful. That smile!

[@CarlosLopez-md1ei]

Never heard her natural voice, what a doll.

[@MbM-xz9zf]

When they had to acknowledge her passing on SNL, with Steve Martin holding back tears.....💔 heartbreaking

[@danettegallaher8493]

She’s one of the best!😂😂😂🙌🙌🥰🌸

[@ajn465]

Our sweet Gilda.. 🌈💕

[@steverinhop]

She seems like a sweet person. As a kid, I used to enjoy watching her on SNL.

[@franosbornblaschke3694]

Awe! She was adorable!

[@charlenemack7040]

Rest In Paradise Gilda 💖🙏💖

[@panowa8319]

Emily Latila, Roseanne Roseannadanna, and Baba Wawa were memorable characters she played.

[@buelan.6525]

The Walter Cronkite skit was my favorite!

[@davidfuller764]

Purportedly a Gilda Radner quote: “ I make most of my clothing fashion decisions on what doesn’t itch.”

[@petewhite85]

A real gem.

[@shawnuel]

When booked on Letterman Gilda always got to see her old friend, Paul!

[@chiefscheider]

Just last night I watched Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee with Martin Short. He mentioned dating Gilda for a couple of years in the 70s and did an awesome Paul impression in a coffee shop!

[@chipdamutt108]

What a sweet and beautiful lady. ❤ Would love to read that book.

[@claudiaporter4269]

I sooooooo Love her and still miss this Beautiful lady

[@Opus313]

Gilda was so entertaining. Still miss her...

[@leahartlee29]

Me too! She was awesome, amazing!

[@mewregaurdhissyfit7733]

I miss her SOOO very much!!!!

[@irvingsherwood1234]

Thank you for posting this.

[@vanessawhitneypro]

ICON. Loved her so...

[@rhuephus]

RIP .. Gilda .. you are missed .. as is Rosannadanna

[@rockturtleneck]

Great clip--Letterman always has a hard time dialing

[@kinsmed]

Nice. We needed that.

[@carlosa7807]

She was a very close friend of Paul's. The reason Paul didn't come out in the Blues Brothers movie is because he was busy working on Gilda's one woman show

[@BCTGuitarPlayer]

She wasn’t a beauty queen, yet one of the most beautiful of all women entertainers.

[@echopathy]

Is this why Paul Simon asked to push back his chair a bit? For stage blocking and lighting perhaps? Sideways talk. What a sweetheart. Sweet stuff.

[@chiefscheider]

Interesting tidbit: Dave called Canada, just outside of Hamilton. Martin Short is from Hamilton, who dated Gilda in the 70s. Bonkers!

[@ianstewart8301]

Love and miss Gilda

[@RatPfink66]

Gilda Radner either had a gift from god, or _was_ a gift from god. I think it was how natural she was, how unaffected. You could not _not_ like her. I mean, look at her telling these silly bullshit stories about the book and totally disarming everyone while doing it.

[@evilvet]

i got that book for xmas that year.

[@walkerpantera]

Gilda seemed SO real and unspoiled. How rare. So very rare for actors. Almost forgot this was 36 years ago.

[@Shesawakeandyouredumb]

They don’t make good folks like that anymore 😢💔🙏🏼

[@marcpeterson1092]

Wow, I remember phones like that. It has been awhile. My family still had a rotary phone.

[@jfjoubertquebec]

Beautiful moment.

[@gongqi67]

Woah. Touching.

She was a true Icon and so was Gene Wilder

[@Aaaaaaaaaaaaa558]

39 years. This segment is 39 years old!

In three years, she'll be gone longer than she was alive

'Can you hear me now?' Remember busy signals?

[@mylittlebug14]

"Dibby" was 90 at the time. And Gilda said "she's 90. Isn't it wonderful?" Wish Gilda could have lived as long as her Dibby ❤❤❤ We'll keep celebrating the life and legacy of Gilda Radner, regardless ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@diane8937]

Geeze, Dave, you cut her off!

[@weegeesworld69]

miss gilda

[@antonioHollywoodLA]

I have the book and Gilda signed it 🎉

[@kathleenherron594]

There was a push to change the name of her organization that partners comedy and cancer treatment support. Their reason was “no one knows who she is anymore.” Saddest news story. Solution: They created a show about her life. The name stayed.

[@sselt]

No updates on endangered feces?

[@jenniferdixon7633]

I miss Dave Letterman. He was so deprecating.

Tom Hanks got Forrest Gump's voice from the boy who played Forrest as a child.

[@ramonpooser2434]

She’s so ordinary here. Nobody like her anywhere.

[@RatPfink66]

that's it. something about her always rang true. lots of comic actors can crack you up but to do so with such genuineness, such heart, is truly rare.

[@geobee265]

Could you give a heads up when you post a video of someone who has just freshly departed...???? I click on a video to see you interact with a person I love and admire.. Only to find out.. THEIR DEAD...!!! Could you maybe put an RIP at the front... ? So they aren't so jarring... ?

[@ArtificialBanana]

@Conor McCabe "Never mind!"

@Conor McCabe Are you Dense..... ? I wasn't referring to this specific video... Duh!

[@tiagoramos4111]

Freshly departed when talking about dead people is a nice pun

[@jimcarey7150]

What a boring segment. I love Gilda and saw her on tour. No wonder I never liked Letterman.
