Oh, Gilda.

Oh, Gilda. How I love thee. One of my favorite things to do is watch classic SNL. And when I say classic, I mean classic circa first 5 seasons- when it was at its absolute best. Some of my twenty something counterparts may think of Sandler, Farley, Spade, and Ferrell as classic but they are sadly, sadly mistaken. Don't get me wrong- Those fellas were good but they simply can't compare to Chevy, Jane, Gilda, Aykroyd, Bill, Belushi, etc etc. Gilda is my all time favorite SNL prime time player. Belushi once said that there are no funny women comedians and for the most part I would have to agree with him. But as far as Gilda is concerned I don't think that there has ever been/will ever be a female comedian who can come close. I admire her for many reasons but mostly because she is so damn funny.
