    The comedian James Gregory was an extremely gifted funny man. The world has lost as wonderful storyteller. Please revisit the video and remove the pictures of the actor James Gregory that passed away in 2002. They are not the same person.

      Why do you not research the topic before you post a video? You need to redo this video. You did a disservice to both these men. Redo it.

      She though didn’t say they were, there was no conversation about the actor, she did say comedian countless times, that’s why people need to listen and, pay attention! Just that picture was it and, yet people were getting confused, really? No offense to one who can’t hear or has hearing trouble but, if one listens and, pays attention to the information you can pretty much figure it out, despite knowing that isn’t a black & white picture of him!

      Again, though if your paying attention and, listening she’s talking about the comedian that just recently died! She really never said 2 cents about James Gregory the actor that died in 2002, all she was doing was showing a black and, white picture of him, that was it! I could count over a dozen times that she said, comedian, she never said, actor one time, so, why would it be that hard to figure out?

    • @ModelARider

      Well, most people would like to stick with the original person they were trying to find out about. That should make sense to anyone. If you were watching a memorial about Hank Williams, a photo of Robin Williams may not really be accurate for the story.

      The emphasis is though was on the comedian James Gregory she didn’t talk about the actor James Gregory, so, there’s that! If you listen and pay attention people shouldn’t be confused! But,how many times do a lot of these channels talk about someone famous or a reality star and, there’s multiple pictures about the person they aren’t talking about? Therefore, there was only one but, she also showed pictures of the right James Gregory the comedian as well, I am just saying!
