    I see what Todd sees in Catherine Hickland - she's highly intelligent and a VERY compassionate and understanding person! LOVE this video!

    After the divorce from Eddie, Debbie married twice to a couple of losers who pretty much screwed her over financially, especially her last husband, who broke her pension plan.
    According to Carrie Fisher, her mother (Debbie) said to her one day
    Debbie: "You know, dear? Eddie's starting to look more like the good husband."
    😂 That's a great line!

      Here's another great line from Carrie, regarding the long-standing rumors about Debbie being a lesbian (she was!): "She's not a lesbian. She's just a very bad heterosexual." Todd himself spilled the beans about his mother and Agnes Moorehead. Another Carrie joke that's probably still up on TY, about when Elizabeth was heartbroken about Mike Todd's sudden death: "Eddie rushed to her side to comfort her... with his penis."

    All of the tumultuous drama in Elizabeth's romantic life! All the disappointment in Debbie's! And yet in the end they produced one of the most beautiful love stories in Hollywood history --- the one written in that photograph.

    Elizabeth didn’t answer the phone when Debbie rang the hotel - Eddie did. Debbie pretended she was an operator transferring a call from Dean Martin. It’s in Debbie’s bio.

      @@1028dianemarie Welcome to our little world where there is always love and fun to be had. I started this show at my desk 5 nights a week when we were first locked down, my intention was to just be together through a scary time and love each other. The lockdown was only supposed to be for a few weeks. A few weeks turned into months and then a year in many states. Todd joined me after walking through my office one night and asked who I was talking to. He sat down and started to tell stories with me. Hence, Our second show, Cat and Todd LIVE was born. I kept my life talks on Friday nights and then joined Todd for Saturday nights in the theater. The show took off and it’s over 4 years now. We really appreciate you (and all of you) being here. SO thank you for the kind words… and God Bless you!

    I love your show big time!! I have always had a great passion for history since I was a child, and a passion reading about, listening to, stories on the Golden Age of Hollywood. Since I was a kid, I was and I still am glued reading about Hollywood related biographies, Hollywood history, on and on! Your show is truly a great thrill for me! It's awesome! It's a casual ambience, and conversation flow of amazing Hollywood stories, Insight, and primary and some secondary experiences interacting within the Hollywood environment. You both have this relaxed conversation, and you both seem to express what is on your minds from both of your personal observations. That is fantastic and very interesting. Also, I'm not saying this to be phony trying to kiss your rings because you two are famous, but honestly you two are fantastic to observe as a couple. You both just complement each other in a genuine way, and not in a phony way or being on. I think its truly lovely to see you two as a couple.
    I remember Ms. Renyolds mentioned in an interview that her ex-husband, Eddie Fisher was bi-polar? Would that explain why your father did some of things that he did? Also, in your father's book there is a part, which he said he and Ms. Talyor rented Mr. Tyrone Power's home and Mr. Fisher pointed out that Tyrone Power and his wife slept in separate bedrooms. Wasn't that common in many rich and famous households? Was he hinting that Tyrone Power might have been gay?

I like how you integrate the photos, the props and read quotes to tell the story. I look forward to more from you both, you have a great chemistry and take a fun approach to the subject.

      You're being naive, Debbie had her problems and imperfections and the reason for her marriage to Eddie has been questioned, and that is that their marriage was a "Hollywood" marriage between a pop star and the girl next door young actress that would have made headlines.

    My favorite movie she did was the Unsinkable Molly Brown. Her acting chops were excellent prior any and all her musicals. Her depth showed more to me in that film. Also, I could tell when she was really enjoying herself in certain scenes. I would NOT have wanted to work with Gene nor Fred-tyrants from hell!!! I know because I TRIED to get into dance in all forms and get onstage but I was too short! I still had to do all the things to get there. Was working to be the triple threat, but by then, bodies not of a certain type were getting rejected! Well, ya gotta eat!!! Anyway, all the dancing and musicals she was in were my favorites above all of them, where she was the star not another character. Thank you for sharing all you have and will, as there is STILL all of us who grew up watching her and new ones too!🙏🏻❤️😉🤔

    I really enjoyed listening to Todd's insights into the HBO program as well as his personal interactions with Elizabeth; however, I must say that Todd's wife was very distracting. She had a tendency to ramble about irrelevant information to the topic and clearly had nothing to contribute. Every time that I got engrossed in Todd's conversation, his wife would interject something or offer some comment that made me want to scream! Thank you for this post, Todd...........but, please.......choose the manner in which your wife participates in certain topics more carefully.

    Lastly; as much as I respect; admire; &, hold appeal for these stories; I reserve judgment on Eddie. I am just not, yet; convinced from the material that your presented here; that he was an, actual narcissist.
    Furthermore; both Liz; &, Richard may have been narcissists; too!
