No one could ever fill her shoes. She is a walking cornucopia of jokes with a delivery that is spot on every time. A classy act with a bright and wonderful smile. We love you Joan! Be safe, happy and at peace wherever you are. We miss you!
I saw her in a sleazy Greenwich Village bar (on the second floor, at that) where they had to convince us to go upstairs to see her act. That was 60 some years ago...and I still remember her joke about how it hurts to have a child. She said that she screamed and screamed and everybody in the neighborhood heard her...and that was just during conception.
And David Emmanuel was such a queen! He was obviously still trying to be in the closet. It's so funny the awkward answers he's giving Joan - you can see he just doesn't care. They obviously had a business arrangement and pretended to be married.
She's fantastic. To be able to have her comedic skills on the spot is amazing. I'm sure any comedian would agree, this format where she doesn't know what is going to be asked is the toughest.
@@michdoug1 bc some people look for ways to feel offended these days and cancel anyone they disagree with, which makes comedians afraid to say what they really want to say. Look up Lisa Lampanelli from 10-15 years ago and the stuff she said was hilarious but would never fly these days.
Such a masterful first minute, I really enjoy watching it. She takes such care to warm up the crowd and flatter it, then BOOM! Knocks everyone's socks off with a classic!
Absolute Best “ Lady comedian “ of all time! Like Robin Williams, you can just watch it over and over and over again and it will keep you warm inside and your cheeks aching.
Im reading a biography about her now and apparently she got a lot of flack early on for delivering her jokes to fast which is so strange to me when I think her fast paced delivery is part of what makes her performance work
Her irreverent sense of humor is priceless. She's so brilliant it wouldn't be possible to get offended by her jokes -- even though she's taken on some taboo subjects. Best comedian of our time.
Ms. Rivers' brain was a spit fire. She was in the UK & adapted her act to accommodate plus the V sign. She adapted to each English speaking country & never missed a beat.
I’m 70yo Australian we never saw much of Joan but she has always been on my radar This is her best performance I have seen so far Apart from her comedic talents , she is a very very attractive woman
Ms. Rivers was dynamite. Vastly superior to so many other stand ups. Clever, clever, clever. I truly miss her. She'd be 90 this year amazingly. She never lost her quick wit.
It seems that I was 8 when this show was aired. But holy creations… Joan is so “over the age”. No matter how old you are you get into her sense of humour. A real Diva.
Yes, always entertaining. The Joan Rivers show, interviews and more can be found on UA-cam. Fashion Police is fun to watch, she is great in whatever she did. Even selling her products on home shopping tv, was entertaining.
The good old days? Did you miss the part where she mentioned she didn’t get a break for 7 years because her comedy was considered too wild and offensive?
I'm no prude but repeatedly Joan Rivers would swear using the f word I cannot understand an audience finding that funny because it's not.Comedians are doing it all the time to get cheap laughs.

Just someone that lights up a room ..blue..red and all the rest ..LOVE her so much ,I want to find all she has done ..and Lenny Bruce got her too ..WOW what a compliment .
OMG. Joan. What an entertainer. She’s beautiful in this video. And her WIT is incomparable. RIP to a woman who had a great career … she SHOULD have had a phenomenal career …. She is the BEST comedienne (male or female) EVER.
Thank you for uploading this. She was a treasure. Xxx great respect for her!!! I needed this today, I was feeling blue and came across this. What a treat!
isn’t it incredible how so many of us hope and wish she’ll come back, even though we know she can’t and won’t. We hope she’ll just appear and come back. We love you Joan. What a sad world it is without you. Rest in peace, requiescat in pace - Joan Rivers (1933-2014).

Truly one of the greatest women - fast observant clever sassy a one of a kind. I adored her I miss her every day. Thank god so much was captured on film. Look at Joan and look what passes for “comedy” in 2023. No comparison. I’d love to have seen her destroy the wokes of today.
The last part with the piano player was so hilarious. I mean her whole act was but if a show could be encapsulated into one montage, it would be the ending LMAOOO
Thanks so much for these videos! Long before the overused "f#*k" overtook her act, she was hilarious. I met her writer of many years who is as sensational as Joan. The World is filled with fascinating people.... like you and I!
nobody will ever have comedic timing quite like Joan. What a treasure.
Yes, other than what she did to her face as she aged. She didn't even look our species.
Spit fire comebacks. She was brilliant. Unabashedly not politically correct.
@@youknowme8578yes she does. But prettier
She really is a tornado, no other comedian works with such timing. Is like music and she hits every mark. LOVE HER!!!
May she R.I.P.🥰☮🦋
"SHE" ⁉️
No one could ever fill her shoes. She is a walking cornucopia of jokes with a delivery that is spot on every time. A classy act with a bright and wonderful smile. We love you Joan! Be safe, happy and at peace wherever you are. We miss you!
And she is smart she married an Englishman. From an Ex Brit.
I love her as a comedian! She was hilarious 😂 r.i.p. wherever you are! 🎉❤❤
Rest in peace joan you were the best.❤😊
I saw her in las vegas
She gave me and a few guests flowers. Laughed so hard next day my throat was sore.
Her stories at the end about Lenny Bruce and Johnny Carson are pretty incredible and sincere. She was truly the best.

🤣
Ha
Killer lines with impeccable delivery and genuine warmth. A pro.
So many of the audience are no longer with us. I miss Joan’s acerbic wit. May they RIP.
Joan's delivery is just music! Amazing. She was also really good looking.
She has added so much joy and laughter to my life. It is an enormous gift to see her many shows and interviews on UA-cam.
The couple who Joan was teasing about the ring are the Emanuels. They designed Princess Diana's wedding dress.
That’s great to know.
Oh that's so interesting. 😂
and how ugly was it ?
that and nothing else,
And David Emmanuel was such a queen! He was obviously still trying to be in the closet. It's so funny the awkward answers he's giving Joan - you can see he just doesn't care. They obviously had a business arrangement and pretended to be married.
The amazing Joan. No one touches her. Fabulous talent 🙏💋
She's fantastic. To be able to have her comedic skills on the spot is amazing. I'm sure any comedian would agree, this format where she doesn't know what is going to be asked is the toughest.
Agreed! What a pro.😊
Joan was the BEST! The world could use her comedy again. Everyone is so thin skinned and offended by everything.
She was brilliant, so quick and sharp
Now THIS is comedy!!!
Microaggression. CIS offender Reported and Cancelled. LGBURQT+ community informed of your transgression. Repent.
You’re right, comedy has been subdued….

2023 still hilarious 😂
Such a masterful first minute, I really enjoy watching it. She takes such care to warm up the crowd and flatter it, then BOOM! Knocks everyone's socks off with a classic!
2024 - still relevant, still hilarious! She was the force of nature ❤❤❤
Made my year seeing this, wow she was a force of nature. So many faces from the past of British tv.
Timeless and brilliant.
Sad that she's gone! So quick witted and funny!
She was hysterical and beautiful. I’m so happy I found this and that you posted it! Thank you 💗
Thank you for uploading the full version of this! The other video on UA-cam is missing a bunch of parts, but this one isn't! Thanks!
I'm glad you like it
Absolute Best “ Lady comedian “ of all time! Like Robin Williams, you can just watch it over and over and over again and it will keep you warm inside and your cheeks aching.
She has the best timing ever most comedians can’t even come that close RIP Joan

Love her always
Truly A Legend! One could hate her yet what is there not to love. RIP Joan. Some beings are to big for life and it shows to me in her spirit!
God I miss those days and really miss her.. There's just noone like that anymore..
Again Ms Joan had me in tears from laughter. Miss her so much!
Joan at the peak of her elegance and beauty! WOW thanks for this video!
She's one of the few people who make me LOL over and over!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
She and carol burnett.
This is world class comedy!
5:50 "Isn't that a great joke? Marie Osmond told me that joke." 🤣
She really nailed that Marie Osmond joke.
Ms. Rivers' brain was a spit fire. She was in the UK & adapted her act to accommodate plus the V sign. She adapted to each English speaking country & never missed a beat.
Except when she said are you nursing, which is an American term for Breast Feeding.
I’m 70yo Australian we never saw much of Joan
but she has always been on my radar
This is her best performance I have seen so far
Apart from her comedic talents , she is a very very attractive woman
It’s so iconic. Those people not laughing seem like the barriers and she is just reading straight through them. A true legend. Loved this!
Complete comic GENIUS ....no one comes even close . What an enormous talent she was
Ms. Rivers was dynamite. Vastly superior to so many other stand ups. Clever, clever, clever. I truly miss her. She'd be 90 this year amazingly. She never lost her quick wit.
Ever since the early 80s, I had loved Joan and her sense of humor! Rest in Peace~
Great stuff. So nice to see all the famous faces.
only practice can keep you on your toes like this. Hard worker and self-made!!
I love that she had "Anchors Aweigh" playing before and after the show. It's a navy song.
There’s no one like “The Joan Rivers.” I miss her…
And I love how everyone in the audience dressed up and exert a lot of effort. Miss those days.
Wow! 1st time I’ve come across Joan Rivers… gonna be hear for the next generation xx
It seems that I was 8 when this show was aired.
But holy creations… Joan is so “over the age”. No matter how old you are you get into her sense of humour.
A real Diva.
I haven’t seen this one. I was laughing the whole time. The world misses you ❤
I suffer from severe anxiety and depression. When I watch this, I forget that I have anxiety and depression. Joan makes me laugh. I miss her a lot.

Those people not laughing have a lot of explaining to do! Such an iconic comedian and person!
Its the culture
Actually, there were more of the same people laughing from the middle of the show to the end.
I think that’s the English way, Stuff shirts..they do not understand American humor.
@@Marie70272Humour is humour.

Thank you for this!!! I haven't seen this since I was 12. I love her so much.😄
This means nothing as you could be 13 or 97. Idiotic statement
Fantastic. So Good!
Love ❤️ you Joan and Paul !! You both will always have a special place in my heart ❤️!! ,…. See ya soon !!
I love the fact that she went full Jewish Mom mode on the ring 😂😂😂😂😂

I watch Joan anytime I need a pick UP! Non STOP ACTION... And MARILYN is in the Audience What a Surprise!!
Jesus how does she do it? Incredible
The most hysterical woman in the world!! The best comedian ever! RIP Joan!
The only comedian that makes me laugh out loud
This was before Edgar killed himself, and Joan was still in a good frame of mind. His death greatly impacted her and her comedy.
R.I.P. Joan!

When today’s women comedians do comedy, it really feels like they are complaining.. Joan Rivers is thr comedian.. rest are fake..
She’s 50 here. Well, some of her is.
Rate of about 300 jokes per minute.
What a hoot. The old good times when everything was better.
Thanks so much for posting this video ❤
Those designers she goes into the audience to talk with are David & Elizabeth Emmanuel who designed Princess Diana’s wedding dress.
And David Emanuelle 😮😂looked like such a massive queen!
Talent overload!!!
OMG - I laughed so hard!!!
Aw, hearing about her first big break in the USA on the Johnny Carson show was sweet.
