Here is the one and only Esther Rolle for you guys who don't know who you are voting on. With Thelma Breasts. And a robbery by Shirley from What's Happening Now.

When comedy was actually funny.

Is this the scene that blake said he scripted for her?

blake said...

No, no, I scripted a pilot as a vehicle for her. But Lear wasn't interested because it wasn't socially relevant.

I don't do social relevance.

And that lack of vision is why Esther Rolle and Shirley Hemphil did not end up starring in the "Gilmore Girls."

Now you know the rest of the story.

Tragically, I don't even remember what the hell the pilot was about. It wasn't my idea; a friend of Lear's had the idea and needed someone to write it.

One of my many adventures that never actually went anywhere.
