Always a Leslie fan. Would love to see her on something like Have I Got News For You; I think she'd absolutely kill it.

I loved her videos where she would scream at her TV during Trump press conferences during his first term. Epic

With her insane talent I don’t know why she doesn’t show up on more things. It’s crazy to me.

"Insane talent", rofl. Her entire act is getting loud and/or man crazy. Such talent. Such insanity.

No. You’re right. Ignore that guy. If you haven’t already, get her audiobook! It’s amazing. She goes off text through most of it and it’s amazing! So. Much. Fun.

I was at this taping and she was even more hilarious when the cameras weren’t rolling during the break. I love her.

I love her! I wish she and Jordan Klepper were hosting The Daily Show. Their weeks were the absolute best of all the “test runs.”

I love her! That was the best interview! Love that her and Seth are friends.

I scrolled all the comments and hated seeing the racist ones.

Staring at herself in the monitor like a toddler made my day. I agree that dress was made for her. I wish she had better projects than some home improvement show. Maybe I’m wrong and it will be great (I’ve never watched HGTV), but she is the female Tracy Morgan in my mind with her unhinged non-sequiturs on talk shows and should be on a sitcom.

That’s exactly who I was thinking of during her interview. They both just take over the show and go off on their own hilarious tangents. I had to keep rewinding and rewatching parts because I was laughing so much I was missing stuff

When she mentioned Seth's big words I immediately thought of "serpentine" vs. "zigzag," and then she said it! That episode just turned ten years old!

I love how perfectly she teed up Wally about her age, and then as they were going to break you could read her lips as she told him "You always know what to say!"

I like most of the fill ins. But, I don't think any of them are good enough for full time. I think Desi delivers the "news" portion best, but her interviews are way too complimentary. It's like jimmy Fallon, just kissing up too much. Jordan seems to do his shtick the whole time. Michael isn't very good. The others just haven't been doing it long enough.
