IMO, if we had ever seen Phil, I think that the only person who could have played it as Phil was described was the late DIVINE. If you don't know who this person was, do a Google search. I couldn't even imagine how funny a scene with DIVINE and Bea Arthur in it together would have been! Especially with Estelle Getty mixed in with it!

Oh, Divine would've been hilarious, but he might have made the show too over the top. They still could've had Brenda Vacarro play Phil's wife. It might've worked.

Wow... Divine as Phil! That would have been... divine... [loud groans inserted here]... He was brilliantly funny in Hairspray as Ricky Lake's mom! :lol:
