Cloris Leachman Steals the Show
user
Eighty-two-year-old
firecracker Cloris Leachman exposed her quick wit during an
appearance on Comedy Central's "The Roast of Bob
Saget." The "Young Frankenstein" and "Mary Tyler Moore Show" legend
stole the show when she opened her comments by saying, "I am not
here to roast Bob Saget. I'm here to
f- John Stamos."

Leachman's award-winning career started in the
late 1940s. She studied at the Actor's Studio
under the famed Elia Kazan. But she is best remembered for her role
of nosy landlady Phyllis Lindstrom on the "Mary Tyler Moore Show,"
and as Frau Blucher in the original Mel Brooks
movie, "Young Frankenstein."
The eight-time Emmy Award winner brought down the house with
naughty references to handsome John Stamos as well as her late
friend Jack Benny.

My sister told me about Chloris Leachman, I was cracking up . I remember how funny she was as Phyllis on the Mary Tyler Moore Show.
I hope they decide to air Bob Saget's Roast again.
