Teri Garr deserved to be a star because: A- She was a tremendous actress. B- She kept her feet firmly on the ground. It’s sad that she is now no longer with us as she can still teach us so much. Her legacy lives on and I hope her family realise how truly loved she was by us all. Rest in peace Teri.
Teri is pure gold dust - a rare breed that always makes me laugh & keep smiling. Just a lovely woman. An inspiring human being. The years of joy that she has given us is immeasurable. And I, like everyone else, always thought she and Dave should have wound up together. I was lucky to have met her when she was way ahead of her M.S. and promoting her autobiography, "Speed Bumps". I think of her often, because I have friends who are still fighting this insidious illness, and Teri has gone through so much - too damned much. I pray that there is a cure today that also reverses the damage that the illness has done. Teri Garr will always be in my prayers & I wish that Teri, her family and loved ones enjoy something beautiful together in every day. She's really one of the good ones. As per her suggestion in this interview, if I did meet her in an airport, I'd surely be able to tun through her entire IMDB, give her a hug, let het know how loved she is, and be on my way. 💜 Teri! PS: Teri deserved Supporting Actress for "Tootsie". Her co-star's performance was listless & anemic. Teri was as good as Dustin, Bill & Durning, (& often,better than them) in that classic film. She/*Sandy" stole every scene that she was in. ✨
Every interview she gives exudes her lovely warm and funny personality, she is self effacing yet a no nonsense person. The most engaging female actress on youtube
Wow she is so smart! You can tell she is a big thinker. I bet she has a high IQ. She deserved more pay than those guys on Sonny and Cher. A truly talented actor.
Re: celebrities when they're recognized in public. It's an odd thing, actually: because of where I live, I've run across many actors in public and their responses vary. If you act like you don't care, they sometimes stare at you as if wanting to be recognized and then look almost put off when you show no reaction. Some of them like to be recognized, some PRETEND they don't like being recognized, and some actually hate it (leaving you to wonder why they got into show business to begin with if they thought they'd get famous without being recognized!). I usually tell myself I don't give a shit, but sometimes regret it. I once stood next to the late Peter Falk on a street corner, where he briefly told me abt the movie he just saw and disliked. I only said a couple of words - can't recall what - and then we parted ways. I've kicked myself since, because he's one of my favorites and I blew my chance to tell him. I guess I thought I was "above it all", but I was being an idiot. He was SO nice. It's all abt being self-conscious and it cuts both ways.
What a great discovery! Young Bobby was a fan, but he was clearly out of his element with this firecracker wit and intelligence. Terri was decades ahead of her time.
She's wrong about Gleason. Her boomer prejudice is showing. There's nothing wrong with being a show biz giant and loving every minute of it. Would she say that about Lucille Ball? I bet not.
@@JJJZANESVILLE2 I've heard Teri say that Gleason stole a character from her father, which puts that $5K into a different light. I noticed that this interview is edited around her statement about Gleason.
I think he was thrown off by her for some reason, maybe by not being able to tell when she was being funny vs being serious. He's usually very good at staying on the same wavelength as his guests. I'm surprised that they weren't more in tune with each other in this episode.
@ yep. He was at his best interviewing musicians. It was really awkward when she asked him if he was listening. She was an extremely vibe-conscious woman. What a loss. Who didn’t love her. She was simply lovable.

Teri Garr: If you read this stuff know that some of us still love and are wishing you the best life possible.
Sad about her today. RIP
Rest In Peace, Teri Garr. Thank you for being a real person not a stuck up celebrity.
I LOVE Teri Garr!
Who doesn't?!
...God...I love this women...my favorite actress...
Wow she is so smart! You can tell she is a big thinker. I bet she has a high IQ.

Such highs, and so many struggles for Terri. So happy she always had a good attitude
Terri Garr is so awesome. 😍
But to be recognized - be thankful!
Now in 2024, we are all in a strange netherworld.

She taught Al Pacino to drive to get ready for his role in Bobby Deerfield.

forgot about that. she was memorable in mccloud, too
💜
Pauline Kael said of Teri, the quintessential quirky, kookie neurotic female actress
11:00 Funny Sonny Bono story.
Watching this interview makes me appreciate Dave Letterman even more.
Let them in the comedian come on give olll Bobby boy a break
And Carson was even better.
Dave was flat out the best and most origina Late Night host to ever do it. Yes, even over Carson.

You obviously interpreted Teri's comments in a negative light but...I thought she was being thoughtful about the effects of stardom in general.

Perceptive! Thanks for the additional info.
What Knockers
I agree, perfectly preportioned from head to toe. A stunner!
She’s got the same vibe as Johnny Depp
Please explain.
Costas is terrible. She has no idea what he’s talking about. Neither do I.

Bob never came up to Teri's level in this one. He was AA to her MLB.
op. damn
RIP Terri!!! ☹
