Ellen Degeneres has GOT to be... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Nanny Fine · 02-10-2004, 12:48 PM

one of the funniest, if not the funniest, woman on the planet. I swear - I look so forward to her talk show every day, I tape her Ellen show at night...

Today she did a nature segment where she was getting out of her studio to 'travel'. She wanted to travel to Germany, India and Mexico. Mind you, she was still in Cali but she had on this ridiculous hiking gear, this dorky hat, and was carrying a guitar. So she is amazed to find a weinerschnitzel restaurant where she goes in and acts like she's in Germany. Same thing in India. Gets to Mexico (Mexican restaurant) and gets tanked with what she calls "spring break in the us" girls.

I have not laughed like that in ages. If you missed the episode I of course taped it (as I've taped every other episode of her talk show) I recommend seeing it. It was also her special 100th episode.

She's is classic. I think I've found a comedianne I like better than Fran Drescher.

oh that was great wasn't it?!?! I love hershow she is so funny she always cracks me up!

Ellen is a hysterical comedienne, have been a fan since 94. Ironically, I always have looked up to her because I came out of the closet around the same time as she did in 1997.

I'm glad she finally found another vehicle that's great, her second sitcom from 2-3 years ago wasn't very good, and that is comign from somebody who watched "Ellen" every week.

I still wish I could see ellens show- I watch her monologues on the website whenever I can- it looks great. Maybe someday I'll trade to get tapes of the show- I don't care who's the shows guest, ellen is funny all the time! Ellen's never done a very successful film where she gets to use alot of her comic talent (except for Finding Nemo, but that's just voice work)- I hope she does another film sometime, hopefully where she's in charge creatively.

Has anyone seen Pauly Shore's new(ish) film- it's independant, and didn't get a theatrical release (it was called 'You'll Never Wiez in this town again') and it was eventually released- but only on video in Australia under the title Pauly Shore is dead. I want to see it, it's full of cameos (he's imprisoned in the celebrity wing of a jail in LA)- including ELLEN!

Yeah, she's hilarious. I love her show, one of my new favorites.

I love Ellen. And her 100th was a hoot!

peter may · 02-17-2004, 07:02 PM

Ellen DeGeneres is absoultely terrific , I would not mind spending at least $100 on one of her tickets to her show.

I just ordered her new book online, has anyone read it yet?

jterry · 02-19-2004, 09:09 PM

I saw that at least 10 million times, it's great.

Procrastinate now, don't put it off.

jterry · 02-19-2004, 09:27 PM

EXACTLY! I like the "pickle claw" too LOL

SPLAIN · 02-24-2004, 04:49 PM

Ellen is definitely the best new daytime talk show and she is a riot, so funny, on any subject. Her show should be syndicated to more markets to make her available to a bigger audience, she is currently the best talk show host around!

bb25 · 03-03-2004, 02:31 AM

I agree, I LOVE Ellen! She seriously has a funny comeback line for ANYTHING, ANYBODY ever says to her, and that's a rare and hilarious talent. She's great.

Anyone seen Mr. Wrong? She's great in that...

Esp. the part where she's drugged in that camper thing..."Hola Mama"

She is hysterical! I love her sense of humor.

So do I and so does my 9 year old daughter. We love to watch her. I hope her show goes on for years and years.

Rhiannon · 03-07-2004, 09:57 PM

I wish I had the network, because I've seen the show before at friends' houses and it's just soo funny!
