The 90's was definitely the decade of the talk shows. Ricki, Jenny, Montel, Maury, Jerry, Geraldo, Sally, Oprah, Donahue, and Cristina for Latino viewers....Did I leave out anyone?
Her talk show was such a worldwide success and made a big impact in 90s pop culture. It used to be played in the afternoons here in Northern Ireland (UK). When playing with friends after school, every friend's house I went into, their mum had this on the TV.... Followed by Neighbours and Home and Away, ofcourse. I miss the 90s so much.
Sky Black I miss her talk show definitely the 90s Ricki is grateful on her talk show I know she holds that close to her heart however she has grown past it and does different things we all change eventually don’t mean it’s forgotten she done a excellent job on her past talk show.
I really like Rupaul & his transparency. He is very engaging. I used to watch Ricky Lake’s talk show. She was good. She did that & now moved on to bigger better avenues. Time really flies. She looks good for 50!
I love how things evolve the main talk show interviewer and her and guest host now sits in opposites chairs You go Miss RuPaul And Thank you Riki Lake you are an icon
They always showed talkshow clips from Ricki on German TV in the late 90's. That's why I already knew who she was when she first appeared on King Of Queens.
Ricki and Jenny were the absolute just BEST!!! Lol, I think it’s so funny that my Dad was on Jenny Jones 😂😂😂 talking about he wanna marry a virgin! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣… I told him, I’m gonna find that tape one day and play it at your birthday party hahaha! 😂
I imagine that many people in the UK like myself used to hang around and idly watch Ricki Lake in that after school / before dinner timeslot of the day... it was always on the tv on weekdays! Perfect escapism. Loved the reunions. And the "I wear pyjamas every day and my husband doesn't like it". Or "I never leave the house without makeup". 😂Go Ricki, Go Ricki! (Also Montell was great 😂👍)
Omg I always looked forward to watching the Ricki Lake show as a kid after school back in the 90s! I remember it came on at 5pm Monday through Friday. My favorite episodes would be the ones where a secret admirer would blind fold their crush and do these random things like make them taste food or give a massage all while having to guess who their secret admirer was. Oh and the Cinco De Mayo episodes too, those were really fun to watch. I miss those days! So glad I can now watch some episodes on UA-cam!
Omg same! I know Im biased, but we had the best of talk shows back in the day. Springer and Maury were too thrashy for me but I always liked Ricki's topics....
I like this show. I wish Rupaul nothing but the best. I can't help to think about how packed his schedule is going to be. From shooting Drag Race Proper to All Stars to taping this talk show. Man. Busy. Get them coins tho hunty.
Love it when the camera suddenly pans to some audience member responding to the guest with a big smile or nodding, etc. It's sort of corny and retro, but it's a familiar device. Must take a sharp-eyed camera person to decide who to pan in on. (Or else they informed the person ahead of the show they're gonna be zooming the camera in on him or her? Maybe they pay them or give them a voucher for a free dinner? LOL.)
I was going to see if anyone else noticed that. I would say that they asked him to react so that they could capture him on camera, and i would even go as far as to say that that reaction was probably filmed earlier and they saved it for edit ... And I agree. It was super cheesy...
I don't know anything about Ricki Lake (other than she was on Hairspray and had her own talk show) but she is really....she seems very high energy, honest, and likeable. Thank you for the video.
Ricki is beautiful great no matter what age and very talented definitely was a great cool talk show host she is right for real we are in a different time nowadays we grow we change we do different things but her talk show was great I enjoyed it Back then so am happy she still going good and grateful in everything she does with her life rupaul awesome as well. I
Rikki looks AMAZING !!!!!!!!! She didn’t even change!!! Omg!!!! What a doll :) 50!!!!!! I wouldn’t have never have guessed a day over 34! that is crazy!!! Happy for her :)
It wasn’t no 1 year waitlist to see her show. I went to about 5 of her shows wait list was about a week. And if you walk outside they would ask u if u want to go in for a taping.
Im sure she doesn’t miss doing that show. She sold and exploited deep dark stereotypes of simple minded, ignorant, and underprivileged people throughout the 1990’s. It’s her experiencing a guilty conscience.
Ricki Lake was trash daytime tv for us when I was at University. It’s funny how these people end up respected. We thought she was pure trash. We were naïve too.
Ricki had the best 90's talk show
She really did! I Love her
Her and Montel
Her and Murray.
Jenny had the best makeovers.
The 90's was definitely the decade of the talk shows. Ricki, Jenny, Montel, Maury, Jerry, Geraldo, Sally, Oprah, Donahue, and Cristina for Latino viewers....Did I leave out anyone?
Ricki Lake has literally NOT CHANGED A BIT since I started watching her talk show, she still looks the same! You wouldn't know she was 50!
Big Money's Life she did look 50 back then
She looks great and so young
@@tomarnold8417 NO SHE DID NOT
I remember finding out she was in both Hairpsrays as the same character. Incredible!!!
Yeah you would. That said, she still looks good for 50 in this video.
Ricki Lake is 50 years old. Man why does time go so fast?
I grew up on Ricki Lake! She was so young when she did that show!
I know, same here.
Kempire Radio me to
Me too😂
I was surprised she was that young in the 90s!
I wouldn’t necessarily say “ so young “
Her talk show was such a worldwide success and made a big impact in 90s pop culture. It used to be played in the afternoons here in Northern Ireland (UK). When playing with friends after school, every friend's house I went into, their mum had this on the TV.... Followed by Neighbours and Home and Away, ofcourse. I miss the 90s so much.
Absolutely same here! Ugh
Sky Black I miss her talk show definitely the 90s Ricki is grateful on her talk show I know she holds that close to her heart however she has grown past it and does different things we all change eventually don’t mean it’s forgotten she done a excellent job on her past talk show.
I loved the 90s
im from northern ireland too and remember rushing home to watch after school on itv2!
I used to love watching her show in the mid 90s, back then even Neighbours and Eastenders were addictive as hell haha
I’m 33 now I grew up watching her as a kid!!
That's relatable and messed up at the same time lol
She’s gained weight I think
I really like Rupaul & his transparency. He is very engaging. I used to watch Ricky Lake’s talk show. She was good. She did that & now moved on to bigger better avenues. Time really flies. She looks good for 50!
I am so glad I was young in that era and watched it, it was fun and no social media we used to cut school and watch her shown
I even had a moment I knew the show was going to be good, so I faked bring sick just to stay home and watch Ricky Lake.
Yes two daytime show queens! Grew up on the Ricki Lake show, they dont make em like they use to
I REMEMBER seeing this woman on TV and she always had the crowd control. Congrats Ricky!
Pls tell her I love her, she literally grew me up. I was so obsessed with her as a kid 😭😭😭❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I miss her as an actress, she was so charming and funny, she has real charisma.
I love her.. she's so genuine and beautiful
I used to rush home from school to watch her everyday!!
Mines was ricki lake and Jenny jones! was my favorite!
WHY
I love how things evolve the main talk show interviewer and her and guest host now sits in opposites chairs You go Miss RuPaul And Thank you Riki Lake you are an icon
Ricki Lake is very very good at her talk show i love her she is awesome
The 90s were so fun ughhh. I loved her show !
Love Ricki! Always have, always will.
Ricki looks great at 50. I've always loved those eyes of hers.
with this Ricki Lake interview, Ru's show passes into legitimacy - honestly, I think it'll do well for a long while. Please more RICKI LAKES
They always showed talkshow clips from Ricki on German TV in the late 90's. That's why I already knew who she was when she first appeared on King Of Queens.
Miss Ricki Lake one of the greatest talk show host!!!
I miss ricki lake tho!😊
25 years ago I had the biggest crush on Ricki Lake. She's still awesome. So is Ru Paul.
Ricki and Jenny were the absolute just BEST!!! Lol, I think it’s so funny that my Dad was on Jenny Jones 😂😂😂 talking about he wanna marry a virgin! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣… I told him, I’m gonna find that tape one day and play it at your birthday party hahaha! 😂

@@lotusgrl444 Yes we did! 90s tv was the best! Springer was a mess and Maury, I only liked the non-baby daddy baby momma episodes.
I did not come here to be reminded that she had Milo 22 years ago. Jesus. Love queen Ricki!
I like this show. I wish Rupaul nothing but the best. I can't help to think about how packed his schedule is going to be. From shooting Drag Race Proper to All Stars to taping this talk show. Man. Busy. Get them coins tho hunty.
AJ and the Queen on Netflix and the podcast too. Plus the talent show he was judging on CBS.
It's crazy how the new generation discovered Ricki Lake & so many other classics during C19... The '90s Talk Show Era was WILD!!
Wow time flies so quickly makes us feel so old...And she looks the same as I watched her years back. I remember when she was pregnant lol
Wow... That was REAL & Much Respect
I love her show I always wonder what happened as a kid
I love the Ricki Lake show ! Go Ricki Go Ricki .
That shoe was EVERYTHING!!!! Basic Summer starter pack!

The whole production is rehearsed camera angles as you said could be edited in afterwards
immortalized in song.
"So if you don't rate, just overcompensate
At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake "
Ricki Lake please come back !!!! TV 9
This was the show. I needed this show to get picked up BOO
Anybody remember the episode of her show with the Wig Snatching? "Is This a Wig?" Classic.
😂😁😁😁😁 yes
Love me some Ricki Lake!

Ru Paul truly is one in a million
I love Ricki Lake
She is so beautiful. She looks like her role as pepper in Crybaby here.
Love ricki lake
Love Ricki
I’m just finding out Rupaul had his own talk show. I don’t remember this at all. Must not have lasted that long.
People were obsessed with her show back then it changed alot back then and alot crazy topics but things have changed alot since then tho
Ricki looks good :)
She didn't age a bit😚
Yes ru!
Tell you what, Ricki lake looks good for a woman who's in her fifties that's for sure.
I think Ricki needs to bring her TV show back
But she did bring her show back in 2013, I think it only lasted a season or two.
My god, I remember when she was doing the show pregnant. Time really flies
Remember when she had that man's haircut?
Go Ricki , Go Ricki....
I approve this message.
YASSSSSSSSSS MAM QUEEN 👑 👑
She does not look fifty! She looks 35-40 😯
She looks 50. Just better than some women look at 50.
Im sure she doesn’t miss doing that show. She sold and exploited deep dark stereotypes of simple minded, ignorant, and underprivileged people throughout the 1990’s. It’s her experiencing a guilty conscience.
Go ricki.
Everything changed after 911, I get what Ricki is saying
.. and we don't miss her show either.
Speak for yourself, I loved that show!
Ricki Lake was trash daytime tv for us when I was at University. It’s funny how these people end up respected. We thought she was pure trash. We were naïve too.
Rupaul sounds kinda like John Ritter when he did Clifford the Big Red Dog.
She should join The View someday.
Or a musical drama like 'Fame'
She was the first pro lgbt+ celeb that I remember.
Sipping black tea
I wish we could have Ricki Lake back. Everything is FAKE now-a-days.
Ricki Lake is a goddess the curves on her
I watched a plane hit a building. I may never work again
Loved her show was the best bit didn't like her comment about the ouch** mama like those people and black culture made your show ricki
😎SHE'S SO HONEST! (Please don't click on my face. I'm a germaphobe.)😎
Why doesnt Ricki do a talent show ?
Who’s here from masked singer?
Mama ru .. girl you are not a new talk show host 😂 are you forgetting the 90s ?
Jos and Toady 😀 TV
She looks like Celine Dion
Nice looking young men
We have Martin Lawrence to thank for talk to the hand
No we don't. Find a clip of his show saying that before Ricki.
Ricki "woke" Lake
Ooochie momma paid ur bills Ricky. Just saying. You’re a legend but u got nerve lol.
