Absolutely wonderful stuff.

She was hilarious . . . brutally funny, and never (to my knowledge, and to her credit) apologized to anyone for "offending."

Thanks for all the laughs.

that's too bad, but i figured it was coming when they said they'd moved her to a private room and were keeping her comfortable.
back with edgar now? if one believes in that...

RIP Joan...you were one of the best and will live on in all our memories. Biting humor and quick witted, and how she would laugh at herself while laying out a line would crack me up the most. Rest in Peace......

She always owned the fact that she lead the world in plastic surgeries, nobody told more jokes about her, than she did you have to love and respect that! Very funny lady, stellar career. RIP

While her comedy is what we'll all remember, she turned in several excellent dramatic performances as a young actress. If you've never seen the film adaptation of John Cheever's 'The Swimmer', her passing provides a good occasion to seek it out. While it's completely Burt Lancaster's vehicle, Rivers' moments in the devastating story are memorable..
