    I've heard her name a few times growing up, but this is the first time I've ever seen her, or heard her. She's funnier than I thought she'd be. Rest easy, funny lady.

    Aside from comedy, just imagine how much she experienced in life. It’s crazy to think about

    That line about Trigger is just too much. She’s right there between Merv Griffin and Arthur Treacher lol. I laughed so hard. “Moms” is such a legend and more people need to appreciate her ❤

      I love the look on Merv’s face when she says it. When Whoppi Goldberg directed the documentary on her a few years back her production company reached out to us to license that exact joke.

    I too saw Moms Mabley in person. But I really like her version of the Sinatra hit “I did it my way”. Here she sings it : “I did it His Way”. Love it.

    I always thought she was one of the funniest female comedians ever. I just wish there was more and longer TV recordings of her. You really have to search them out. Maybe 4-5 tops.

    This was on Merv's brand new show on CBS to compete with Johnny Carson. It's scripted, and I heard Moms' "Trigger" joke before on Merv's Westinghouse syndicated show. But it's a classic, always funny.

    This is a performance, not an interview of the real person. It looks as if she hid behind the character and would not allow her real persona to come through or to be seen.

    This darling woman was raped at 11 and had a baby as a result. Again at 14, and gave both babies up for adoption.

      She didn't. As part of her "moms" act.. she'd take them out backstage.
