(Don't tell that to his victims; they don't deserve such temerity). Apropos the, let us say, infamous table, at which his public victims sat: in case anyone wanted to know, where my issue with Chuckles lies, a particular interview with Madeline Kahn might serve as a typical example. He badgered her in his rosey manner (not atypical of the wannabe journalist who thinks interrupting and steering the agenda of getting at something personal that would not otherwise be revealed). Basically he wanted to know if she regretted being known exclusively as a comedic actor. His redirected projections interrogated a disappointment at not being considered a serious actor. She was clearly, in my opinion, annoyed by the insinuation. And the a-hole rebroadcast the interview on the night of her death. So, as for the table: firewood! davidlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04754707934311038544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020960402708303830.post-8627379008452105312017-11-22T13:56:21.180-05:002017-11-22T13:56:21.180-05:00Naja, ich meine, für mich persönlich war die Schan...Naja, ich meine, für mich persönlich war die Schande nächtlich im PBS ausgestrahlt. (Sag das bitte den Opfern nicht, sie haben meine Kühnheit nicht verdient). Apropos der — sagen wir mal, nun — „berüchtigter Tisch”, an welchem seine öffentliche Opfer saß: falls man wissen möchte, woran mein persönliches Problem mit Chuckles liegt, als Muster dafür dient ein Interview mit Madeline Kahn, worin er ihr ausführlich "badgered", ob sie denn bereut, bekannt ausschließlich als Komödiendarstellerin zu sein. Impliziert wurde, wurde nicht ernst genommen. Es hat sie, meiner Meinung nach, offenbar sehr genervt. Und der Arschloch hat am Abend ihres Todes diese Folge wiederholt. Also, was den Tisch betrifft: Brennholz!davidlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04754707934311038544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020960402708303830.post-71605104733725525962017-11-22T10:33:04.412-05:002017-11-22T10:33:04.412-05:00Best wishes for Thanksgiving!
