Lily Tomlin on Night After Night

Lily Tomlin appears on Night After Night to pitch her new movie, "The Search For Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe."

But instead of appearing as herself, she is interviewed as "Kate", a wealthy Manhattan socialite who bankrolled the movie and only has a passing acquaintance with Lily Tomlin. Further, it appears she doesn't even like Lily that much. Alan does a great job playing along, acting at times as if he's genuinely disgusted with Kate. This is brilliant television.

Unfortunately, this is only the second half of the interview and because of Youtube's 11 minute limit, I had to fade out before Alan's outro to the commercial.

Money line: "But I do admire Mr. Allen. He's intellectually superior to Ms. Tomlin."

She's terrific.

Best one-women show ever.

Kate is cooly and authentically supercilious. "Do you believe in Christ? Well, of course." LOL!

[RideHanna]

Love her , she is just fantastic!

[loisberg10]

super de duper witty and so obviously hilarious at the 3rd person ability

[maxwelldemon999]

isn't it interesting how this idiotic host keeps trying to get tomlin to admit she and Jane Wagner are partners? And how Tomlin keeps sort of uncomfortably deflating him...

My opinion of this is that many actresses could have pulled this upper class character off. Not too difficult and, quite frankly, she could have been more witty IMHO.
