    Ernestine, as always, stands tall and proud for the phone company on Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In.

    Actually, the one which has considered her best, is the one with "Cher" which to me is #1, don't know why that is not listed in the top 10, maybe they didn't consider it as top 10, but maybe in the Hall of Fame. People pull up the one with Cher, it is hilarious.

    If Saturday Night Live had Lily Tomlin come back and do Ernestine a couple of times, I wonder how Lily would go about having Ernestine getting use to the way things are now, I mean would she have the Ernestine set somewhat changed & have it where she has been gone for awhile and doesn't know a thing about it, would it be she has been there for the whole time and now teaches other operators on how to do things, or would she just keep it the same and go from there? Either way I am sure it would be as funny as hell. LOL

    Ernestine was my Sisters FAV. My Sister started with SNET when she was 18 at the New Haven "Snake Pit". She just loved this woman's portrayal. She often said she was the Youngest retiring employee, and could have retired years earlier but for her age. Must be good show, First Commercial Break at ONE Minute. Very Interesting, but too many commercial breaks bye.

    Never a fan - a bit corny, but to each its own. However, the one line I loved ❤ when I originally heard it back in the day was “We are the telephone company, we don’t have to care!” How true it was... classic.
    However, now looking back, the Bell phone company was a goddess of quality service technicians in contrast to the egregious gross embarrassment of pretend customer service at COMCAST, a gold plated flaming joke! How fast can we leave you in disrepair is the pass the buck game. Think about it, a phone bill was $20 back in the day. The phone company came out the same or next day and the techs fixed the issue. COMCAST is charging you way over $100 a month. Makes you wait for five days or more to get a pretend tech who can’t help, no amplifier in my truck (3rd tech actually has the part). Zero brand loyalty. I will celebrate the day I cord cut! 5G?
