    I love this woman. She had a rough start, but grew to be a real role model for women in comedy. Thank you, Queen Phyllis!

    I remember watching this episode of You bet your Life back in the 80s, and when Phyllis came out the audience just GASPED at her appearance. And I was like, what are they gasping about? What's wrong with them? lol. Phyllis was way ahead of her time in many ways.
