I used to like her. She was sharp but veryfunny. I particularly liked her self-deprecating humour - because as nasty as she sometimes was to others, she was vicious about herself. I remembr a skit she did about aging, many years ago. About the way everything shifts downwards - now she looks down and thinks, twelve toes!
In later years she started to irritate me sometimes. She could still be funny, but a lot of the time when she was being nasty about people it was just nasty and not very funny. Easy targets like Adele, because y'know - fat. Not said in a funny or clever way - just that she's fat.
*shrugs*
But I don't believe the later stuff negates the humour of the earlier stuff.
Incidentally: I'm curious about why that show in particular made you feel 'home'sick?
