Quite a shame, she was an amazing lady. Even as old as she was she always appeared perky and full of energy, and no one could ever forget that delightful cackle of hers.

She was certainly an inspiration - grating though she could be - to many comedians and women in general. It was okay to be a bit bonkers.

Same. She will be missed, though. Diller is one of many celebrities I'd only heard of through the late '70's Scooby Doo shows where they always featured celebrity guests. Without those kinds of things, I wonder how today's kids learn about this kind of stuff.

Bummer, I really liked her comedy.


The development team and this community deserved better than this from NC Soft. Best wishes on your search.

Greatest thing about Phyllis, she just RECENTLY retired. Up until then she still did an occasional standup routine and voice over spots. Just research and you find she worked on robot chicken.

Groundbreaking female comedian who started way back on Groucho Marx's tv show. And never afraid to admit her age and her battles with it. Sad news.
