Gilda Radner for me. She was hilarious.

Cloris Leachman and Hattie Jacques also get honourable mentions.

Rita Rudner was a hoot. She kind of disappeared. Joan Rivers is wickedly funny. She just kind of got silly with the surgery and stuff.

I gotta go for Gracie, though. Style, gentle humor and the best straight man ever.

Eleanor Bron is shedding tears as we speak - how could any Beatles fan forget her brilliant scene in A Hard Day's Night?

For shame, Fraxon. :lol:

Not to mention her pivotal role in Help!

This would be sooooooo much funnier if she'd actually been in AHDN. She was in Help!.

The scene with Lennon backstage?

"She looks more like him than I do"....that's not her?

Love Carol Burnett !

She may not be the absolute funniest on the list, but not many entertainers ( male or female)
come close to the depth and range of talents that woman has- IMHO .

loved her TV show
