Aww you're wonderful Judy and described everything so lovely!! All I have to do now is act like a crazed hep-girl on here. been waiting to do this for a while GEEEZ. Here we go:
Bonus features on the Katestah:
ALSO, do you not LOVE and GUFFAW over Phyllis's special guest appearance (wearing red and white, I might add, in a sort of sparkly number hahaha). SO. CUTE. And she walks in front of the camera a couple of times, too. Oh Phyllis, you are ridonkulous.
Phyllis tells Kath that her hair's out of place and a few men come around to tug and pull at it, but they're not satisfied. So Kate goes: "Don't tell me what's wrong, just fix it." Makes Dick Cavett chuckle nervously because he probably knows the whole interview is going to be charged with Kate's take-over energy.
And HEE. I loved the way Kate said "oooooOOOOH-OH!" too!!!! While the Dick man was in mid-sentence (but she did that a lot, they all did actually...he just rambles on sometimes haha)
Her badass almost-leap over the little wall thingy was funny too. Awww. "I thought it was my gLAHss." *giggles*
Oh man, the drug thing had me dying. And this was only the bonus clip?! It was the most excited I have ever been in watching a DVD for the first time.
"You poor thing you can't even answer me." <--KATE DON'T TEASE THE GUY!! tsk tsk katty.
The actual interview: L.M.A.O!!!!!! "I should think he would be impotent! The life he's lead -- I should think that at forty he is impotent and has a prob-blem. I should hardly think that his prob-blem is terribly interesting to me. I'm sure it's terribly interesting to him." <--- OH EMM GEE. HILARITY. But what I think's so special about it is Kate doesn't know she's being so funny. I mean, she just goes on an on so sensibly while everybody else cracks up.
Okay, there is SO much more for me to squee about, but I really have to go to school now. Aww shucks. School's a BOAHHHHH.
PART DEUX coming soon!!!! No worries, probably later tonight.
(But I just have to say JOHN HUSTON IS SANTA CLAUSE AND I WANTED TO JUMP IN THE SCREEN AND SIT ON HIS LAP AND ASK FOR A PONY. and when the hell did his get meaty? hje was sooo skinny and then he got all snuggle and I love it!! )

If anybody has a chance to read the book about his life please jump at the opportunity as its very funny . I think its simply called Dick Cavett . Probably out of print . 1974 is a long time ago .
Sadly Dick's wife Carrie Nye died recently . She was an actress and apparently the marriage withstood just about everything including Dick's bouts of bipolar disorder

Ah, Judy, great post. Reading your words made me feel as though I were watching the Kate segment again. Shaun -- if you can't buy a copy -- hang in until it hits the video stores and your local library BUT I really hope you can buy a copy because this interview with Kate will just electrify you -- it's that good.

I saw Bette Davis' appearance on Cavett the other night. I dare anyone to call her a bitch after seeing that show; she seemed very warm, likable and wise. My dvds still haven't arrived. I'm anxious to see the Kate one. Maybe I should start harrassing my mailman.

HEHE it's some good tiiiiimes, but I've discovered I don't have the time to squeal about the rest of it on here. *le sigh* Oh well.
It's SOOOO........amazing. Yah, that's the word for it. You think Bette Davis was good? Wait till ya see Kath's. You'll be drooling over her. Completely gaa-gaa, walking on air. I mean, singing Kate songs, whistling, etc.

Got [glow=red,2,300]IT[/glow] today - jumping up and down. Great show - forgot time and place  Many many thanks to you guy's for posting the arrival of the DVD  ;D  especially to Judy  ;D One of my favorite moments where when she told about her niece falling of the horse - one could see how proud she was - the reaction of her niece I mean. It seems to me (also in several books about her) that it was very important to her, never to show pain. Great

I saw it! I saw it! I saw it!!!!!! WOW! Best moments 1. EVERYTHING, but to be more specific: 2. Her willingness to diss that ugly arse carpet. Good to know she still had good taste in the 70s, a time when all furniture was puke-worthy. I speak soley on my knowledge from old 'All in the Family' reruns so I could be a little wrong. Doubt it though. 3. She had her foot propped up on that table the whole time!  4. She kept her wisdom teeth. Now when I have to get mine yanked I'll have an excuse not to...Kate didn't!  Too many more to count. For those who haven't gotten this yet, do it immediately! That is all.

All In the Family is the epitome of fugly arse 70s interior design. I think one word to sum up the 70s could be "throw-up". That's all it was; just one big sloppy pile of up-chuck. Yes.
The STUFF ::takes a wiff of her gelly lip-balm:: <---- Dick had to make it clear she wasn't getting high on anything because, hi it was 1971. A sign of the times, man. But who'd think that Katty would get high on that stuff anyway?
I love how she made him blush a BILLION times through the course of the interview.
oops, hafta do my paper now. bye.

Heh. The only moments I disliked were when the cameras were facing the audience. Looking at them alone made me cringe. So goddamn hairy they were -- but to tell you the truth, as a lover of the past, I would love to be in the 70s right about now. Gonna shot me in the face again, Amber.

Too many more to count. For those who haven't gotten this yet, do it immediately! That is all. Hi Shaun, Glad you finally saw it. Your comment that what you liked was: EVERYTHING -- really says it. She's perfect. I'd been a fan of Kate's for 14 years by 1973 and that was the first time anyone had ever seen her do an interview and I was just totally thrilled cause she was as totally awesome as I'd always imagined she would be. She was funny, warm, witty, intelligent, and charming and that smile just lit up the room. I loved the fact that it was very obvious that Cavett was thrilled to death to have her as a guest and that he was totally charmed by her. It was so funny when she told the story about playing in "Night Hostess" back in her twenties when she was supposed to be a "wicked fascinator" and at that point she wasn't a fascinator and never did become THAT kind of fascinator. But it was quite apparent that by the time of the Cavett interview Kate was the best kind of "fascinator" and she knew it and the audience knew it and we loved her for it. The other thing that just leaped off the screen for me -- back in 1973 and now -- was the fact that not for a second did I think of the fact that Kate was 66 when she did the interview. She exuded a very young vibe and she looked terrific. Loved that she showed up wearing her "uniform". Sherry

WHAT the HELL? How did I manage to overlook this thread? How did I completely forget that the Cavett interview was going to be released? Or wait, was it in its entirety??? I must get myself to a video store. AHH!!!!!!
