...on the DVD for the 10th series. She seems horrible! All she did was be mean about Lisa Kudrow's acting, laugh at the producer's/writers, and make out that the whole thing was a joke...does anyone else agree how horrible she is?
shareI thought the same thing... maybe she thought she was being funny? Who knows for sure but she really didn't come off well.
shareShe also resented playing Lisa Kudrow's mother and thought it was a comedown for her. She even thought Tootsie was a comedown since it wasn't the lead role. She has quite an ego. Interesting that after a bad experience with Lisa Kudrow and also having worked for Michael Patrick King, Kudrow and King developed the series The Comeback about an egotistical deluded bubbly Hollywood blonde. I'm convinced that Valerie Cherish is Teri Garr.
shareBecause Teri Garr was once a hot babe, and now she is fat & old. Time is not a kind phenomenom.
shareShe wasn't rude about Lisa Kudrow, in fact in her book she says that she would have loved for her to be her own daughter; I do think though that she had a rough time with the idea of playing her mother - she isn't honest about her age.
And as for Michael Patrick King, he actually gives a quote on the back of Teri's book - 'fun, sexy, unpredictable and a joy to spend time with'. I think it's a fun idea that The Comeback was based on TG, but that doesn't seem to be the case. (And Valerie Cherish wasn't blonde).
thats so weird because when i was watching the friends "the one on the beach" episode i actually thought she must be phoebe's real mother guest starring because their mannerisms were so similar and they look SO MUCH alike.
shareI can't believe you people. Teri has Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and it's been getting progressively worse. I think at the TV Land Awards she was in a wheelchair. She's very bright, funny and a terrific actress. She comes off quite well in interviews and in her funny, honest bio "Speed Bumps". I've loved her since she appeared on "The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour". You people haven't contributed anything to pop culture and here you are criticizing a woman who continues to work despite a crippling illness. SHAME!
shareI thought the same thing. The whole time I was like...Wow, what a betch.
shareSpitting image, nothing else comes close.
