I've never seen David Duchovny so relaxed and smiling! Kelly just has a way of making everyone feel at ease and thus gets great interviews! Meg Ryan is looking great and is as sweet as ever.

[@senorgato70]

David reminds me of Harrison Ford, just aging like fine wine and looking more handsome with time. And Meg Ryan is such a phenomenal actress and is looking gorgeous. Her part in When A Man Loves A Woman still hits me this many years later.

[@angellove306]

I haven't seen Meg Ryan in years glad she's back acting again

[@endthemandates2567]

What I notice about Kelly 1) Shes a genuine person 2) She lost weight 3) Amusing when she fan girls 4) Kelly is really good at interviewing and relating to people

[@taj8231]

They all three look so good. Great compatibility during the interview. Love them for their intelligence, humor, and authenticity.

Thank. You. So. Much. For me. You. Made. Life. So. Much. 😮

Kelly’s interviewing has really come into its own this season so far

[@fuckurbody]

because she is not on auto pilot for the first time … shes got a couple emmys for pretending, lets see if she would win one being 100% presents.

[@LolaB87]

Omgeeee Meg Ryan is phenomenal… my favorite movie of hers is “When A Man Loves A Woman” with Andy Garcia. I cried as a child and even more as an adult, understanding her struggle 😊❤😢

[@valerieking5265]

@LolaB87, the movie that Meg did in 1998 with Nicholas Cage called City of Angels was so good!!! It's too bad I don't have it on DVD, now I'm in the mood to watch it again.

[@tammybelgarde9994]

I love that movie!!

[@KLo-cc5tn]

@@valerieking5265love that movie

[@oywiththepoodlesalready]

Kelly is 100% right. Return to Me is IT. SO FREAKING GOOD. Seen it about a million times and it never gets old. Amazing cast, Bonnie Hunt had a massive stroke of genius with the writing, directing, and acting. It is HILARIOUS. Like Minnie once said “It’s dead funny, and someone is dead in it!” The CHEMISTRY OMG okay I think I’ll stop now haha.

[@HT-wn3eh]

Return to Me is so underrated!!

[@lyndaf248]

Meg looks great and oozes such natural charm. The haters in recent years have been shameful. Maybe some work done but she is stunning. Sad she's been gone so long.

[@lynneharper3233]

I’m with Kelly… return to me is one of my faves of David’s! David… Minnie driver… Bonnie hint… Jim Belushi… perfect mix!

[@faeriefire78]

I can't believe two of my favorite actors are going to be in a rom-com together! It's funny because I heard the song "Return to Me" for the first time in years yesterday and of course I thought of the movie -- maybe a sign from that benevolent being Meg was talking about? lol. But being a massive, unapologetically nerdy X-Files fan and classic rom-com junkie, this is a must-see. 💗

[@belvarhoades5732]

I love David's voice. "Return to me" I have watched over and over, over, over etc. He is handsome as well 😊 You ladies are awesome too.

[@angelabest4468]

The game felt like David and Kelly were on a really bad date 🤣 But he is hilarious.

[@blueyedlady]

Meg Ryan is such a legend to me. She's my childhood and young teens wrapped into one beautiful and loving person! So happy to see her on screen again!

[@eneobande7433]

Kelly looks ahh-mazing

Looks like Reese Witherspoon

[@karenmoldenhauer1421]

Good to see Meg Ryan and David. I respect both of them. Kelly is beautiful.

[@nanaobx]

1) Kelly looks fantastic. 2) She is by far the best talk show host on the planet. 3) She is an incredible vocalist. 4) She seems like a down to earth, genuine human being. 5) How can anyone not love her?

[@amber.ren_1995]

Exactly my thoughts. I love her and Drew Barrymore both of their talk shows 🧡🩵🧡🩵

I just love Meg Ryan and there is no other rom coms that I enjoy so much as the ones shes appeared in whether Harry met Sally,You've got mail....shes just the best in this genre and every xmas I have to watch one of these and also anything with that xmas NYC vibe from here in the UK,makes me feel all warm inside :)

I haven’t watched the show in a few months but Kelly seem much skinnier now, is she on a healthy diet? Good for her!! Loves it!!

[@jungersrules]

I love her no question, but love him for both X-Files and "Return to Me."

[@Fiawordweaver]

I play RETURN TO ME, all the time. I miss those old classic actors what great chemistry. Then Duchovny and Minnie Driver. Great heart felt chemistry add Minnie’s character best friend-Bonnie Hunt and Belushi a very great comedy team. Plus excellent Director Bonnie Hunt. Can’t forget David Alan Grier All time favorite movie

Ok this is a fun convo… love all three together 😂

[@Barbara91911]

Great show today with Meg Ryan and David the deal breakers were a riot esp the last one about the guy being abducted I was thinking get the net and then you said something about therapy really funny and I liked Lou what a great guy and the father daughter dancing brought tears to my eyes great cover on the song and don't worry you don't look your age ❤

[@jamesfreeman2258]

Meg Ryan talking about being in her latest movie is so spot on. She is a great actress.

[@user-yf4kc8ti9r]

Meg looks wonderful!! ❤❤❤ So happy to see her doing so well ❤❤

Return to Me is one of my go to movies too!

[@peterodriguez9066]

Kelly you look so beautiful and younger. You are always beautiful at any size but this is working for you 😘❤️

[@kerryannehogg6009]

Kelly looks so much younger since she lost weight. And her voice has softened as well. Good for her.

[@LinzyTaylor]

This was a wonderful interview. I love these three! Especially Hank Moody 😅

[@ColleenDaumen2]

Looks like a lovely sweet enjoyable film... no guns or politics, just love ❤❤❤

[@PiazzaGurl]

😂😂😂😂😂. Kelly has gotten so much better in hosting. Killing it girl. Meg and David look great.

[@katiew1560]

I also love ‘Return to me’ and I cry EVERY single time. I will watch it, not thinking how emotional it makes me… then I’m hooked and a mess. 😭😅 I grew up watching all the Meg Ryan movies with my mom, so they comfort me when I’m upset or miss the movie days we had together.💜 I LOVE Doris Day movies! My grandmother and I watched older movies together. We had a Doris Day movie marathon before she passed. 💜💜

[@paolajmnz1]

Lol ❤ love them 😂 so hilarious!!! Can’t wait to see the movie, two of my 90s favs! That last question David should’ve been like, well I have been abducted before so just make the deal with the dude he’s going back in 4 yrs anyway 🤣 ( Agent Mulder )

[@kimberlyhyde3040]

So I had to go find the movie Return to Me. 😂 I haven’t seen it in forever and it’s such a good movie. 👍🏼

The original patent for toilet paper holder shows that the TP should be put on with the paper coming over the top. So Kelly is not wrong on that! Lol

She overpowered them. She needs to chill.

[@gottmedmos3]

@@ApplePie.. How did she overpower them? Explain to us all please because we certainly did not watch the same interview. Usually David Duschovny is reserved and uncomfortable in interviews where as here he was very present and enjoying it which says a lot about how good Kelly is.
