opus May 31, 2015 Share May 31, 2015 (edited) It's Julia Louis-Dreyfus. She was on SNL, Seinfeld (which her Top 10 line vaguely referred to), The New Adventures of Old Christine, & now, Veep (& has won, or been nominated for, Emmys for most or all of those shows). I've seen every SNL, Seinfeld and Veep. I was typing fast and knew I messed up the spelling. Edit to add--ok, maybe not every SNL. But definitely the other two.

Basically she just has two French last names. Thus the spelling not like it sounds. Even on her mother's side it's all French (her mother's maiden name is apparently the very French "LeFever").

Mumbles September 20, 2015 Share September 20, 2015 Thrilled about the NatGeo news. I had feared that Dave would do what Johnny Carson did and become a bit of a recluse. Dave has a voice and a point of view that I think we need to hear, and I'm glad that we'll be hearing it, and hope this leads to some more specials like this. In my dreams I would love for him to seg into a PBS-type show, weekly or monthly, where he talks about an issue he cares about. I never thought Colbert was going to "replace" Dave and I think he's fine. But Dave just called bullshit on so much fakery and nonsense in our society and nobody is doing that now. I miss that now more than ever. He would be having a field day with all the presidential candidates. 1 Link to comment
LJonEarth September 21, 2015 Share September 21, 2015 I kind of assumed he would be a hermit too because of how he and his guests have always spoken about him. But in all of the post-Late Show interviews that I've seen, he...kind of won't stop talking. It's great. He seems really free and fun again. I can't wait for this new mini-series. 1 Link to comment
