Tracey Ullman's State of the Union....

I hope this doesn't necessarily post in the main page because it isn't a recent video but posting here so others have it as reference if you have access - starts the 25th I believe

Political characters appear to abound in this season of Tracey Ullman's show starting tonight - hopefully a few of the clips will eventually make it to YouTube for posting, but I added a link below from Huffington Post that you might enjoy seeing a brief glimpse of 'Rachel Maddow' and 'Arianna Huffington' ... I'm not with Showtime so hope this doesn't appear like a promo post - it isn't.

1. Damn! Too bad I don't get Showtime
Tracey Ullman has always been one of my favs.

5. Thanks for the link!
Tracey is awesome, and oh, so talented. The impersonations that she does with ease is absolutely amazing - and funny!

Her take on Rachel Maddow was spot on!

Did you know that the Simpsons were started on her show? Cool, isn't it?

:)

6. yuppers - and she is willing to work to put a show together - you can see it in the variety

a lot of folks would just spit out garbage and make their own work easier, but this was obviously a lot of work and research and DOING - not just regurgitating. I was also shocked to find this video of her. I had NO, absolutely NO idea!

3. Another great show that isn't talked about much is Wanda Sykes Show
Although it is on Fox ... just hold your nose and watch the episodes online anyway!
It is hilarlious ;)

I am amazed at how much Wanda gets away with on her show. On one of her episodes she bashed FoxNews and even wondered out loud if they'd get rid of her! LOL.

4. agreed - which is probably so counter-intuitive about Fox v FoxNews

must make viewers go crazy who are in love with FoxNews who dabble around their channels
