This will make you SPLIT your sides!

"If you like good Comedy, and you LOVE Phyllis Diller, this is for you. To be honest I didn't realize this was an HBO SRO (Standing Room Only - Remember that from the 70's?) production in Denver. I also didnt expect the video and sound quality to be as clear and amazing as it is. Phyllis gives a short biographical introduction, then its on with the show! I have personally seen Phyllis twice and let me tell you, this DVD caused me to laugh just as hard, if not harder than my two previous live experiences. This is something for you comedy buffs, a must for a classic collection with comedy. And a note to Phyllis: Thanks for all the laughs!"
Classic Phyllis Diller

"This is Phyllis Diller as you would see her in Las Vegas. Some of the material here would not have been allowed on regular television, but instead was shown on HBO in its earliest years. Phyllis includes many of her classic topics in this broadcast including her "husband" Fang, her cooking and housekeeping skills. Some of the material may not be considered as risque now, but it was back in the mid-1970's for sure. Phyllis also gives us a real treat by playing the piano.
I'd recommend this video to anyone who's ever enjoyed Phyllis Diller on television and in the movies."
The best of three

"The best of three DVD's on Phyllis Diller, which I have seen. The setting is dated but the performance is refreshing, presenting Phyllis in her comic prime. See for yourself just what made Phyllis the star she became; and, if you then want more, "Goodnight, We Love You-The Life and Legend of Phyllis Diller" makes for a good follow-up."
