I loved pretending to be a middle-aged Jewish woman. I just wanted to do what I saw Gilda Radner and Carol Burnett doing. But I'm not a particularly good impressionist. It was never my strong suit.

I loved the late Gilda Radner. I love Carol Burnett and Lily Tomlin.

I was obsessed with Carol Burnett and then Tracey Ullman. Like, obsessed with their shows.

Carol Burnett, who played Miss Hannigan in 'Annie', is as funny as it gets.

I grew up idolizing Madeline Kahn and Lily Tomlin and Carol Burnett, Ruth Gordon, Rosalind Russell, Amy Irving, women who were stylish and real actresses who did real work and could not be replaced with anyone else. You cannot cast anyone else in Madeline Kahn's roles.

Carol Burnett was particularly funny. She swore for the first time on television on Larry Sanders.
