Last year at 75 Candice did a Sunday Morning interview with Jane Pauley. She said this about her life and it brought me to tears..."I couldn't have asked for anything more." How many of us can say that? ❤🎉

Don't forget that beautiful face graced the covers ( many) of vogue and bazaar. Love her

She has always been drop dead gorgeous and still is. Have always loved her.

Candice Bergen is such a marvelous treasure.

Isn't she just divine? Loved every minute of her.

Candice Bergen is brilliant and real and grateful and witty; these are her shining qualities, ones to admire at any age.

Candice is amazing; killer eye contact (those hypnotic eyes). And perfect composure. The cool antithesis of the 'dumb blonde'. Wow!! And a superb humorist (level above commedienne).

Saw her in Book Club and I forgot how funny of a person Candice is. She is amazing. She is so down to earth

Candice is the epitome of Class.

I love Candice Bergen. She's gorgeous - regardless of a few extra pounds (at last! She can relax and eat!), I loved her book, and I love her frankness. I also really liked the fictional character of Murphy Brown. But mostly I'm happy that she's found love not once but twice, and is enjoying herself so much. She deserves it. We all do.

Candece Bergen was and still is one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood for the last half a century. Also pure class.

Babe-hood comes and goes... delightful! Thanks for keeping me humble Lord. Love this Candice Bergen with Harry Smith interview - thank you.

Thanks Candice it was so fun listening to you

What a marvelous visit. Thank you.

Thank God! A real woman

I read her first book when I was in high school and Murphy Brown was on the air. I fell in love with her. Still am. Candice Bergen is a slight.

Such an interesting woman who has lived life to the fullest. Cudos to her.

I love her candor.

This popped up on my feed, & I've always admired her, though I didn't watch Murphy Brown. It's just that I've never been a fan of sit-coms except for a few, & still haven't watched all of those...yet. This was recorded several years ago, but here, she still looks & sounds great. She probably still does.

48:40 That reminds me of an interview I read once where Laura Linney was asked about aging and she said she had very little patience for people who complained about it because she felt offended on behalf of all her friends who did not get that chance. She said she wanted to "slap some sense into them" :) That interview completely shifted my view on the subject.

Amazing interview, so uplifting, so all inspiring and emotional at times Thank you 92Y and Candice Bergen for sharing your life with us all, I am happy I don't think of those Actors/Stars and Stage Actors from day to day that have passed on I seem to get very moved over it in a sad way. Thanks again

"the pounds". Stop doing this to women. Really. She looks healthy and happy.

Thank you Candice for entertaining us for all those years.

So great to hear what Candice has to say! Never a dull moment with her wonderful warmth and sense of humor! One of my favorite celebrities/actors! Have one book on her but will be buying this book "A Fine Romance"! Used to live on East 91rst when I was young and single but didn't know about the Y being right around the corner on 92nd St. Had I known about it, I would have gone there to these great interviews, thank you!

swoon. love this woman... simply gorgeous as always.

She doesnt look overweight to me. She looms normal.

My first TV sitcom gig was giving Murphy Brown a pregnancy sonogram. Great writing, of course...Donzig and Peterman, i.e., hilarious. Candice was amazing to work with, generous, so caring of my nervousness about it all---my tiny TV career went downhill from there, never matching that first gig! But seeing Candice again always warms my heart. And, she turned me onto California Pizza Kitchen!

Beautiful Candace, love this gal! Great interview Harry!

(Acting w/ a baby): “It was like this little grenade you were carrying around”. Lol!

What's this with the weight thing?...the woman is getting old....she was stunning in her day and she still looks good for her age.

Beautiful actress...icon....you have to love,her....🙏🏼🙏🏼🕊️🕊️👍💯👍

I just saw an episode of "What’s My Line", with her and her father; she used a French accent and you could tell then that she was a great up and coming actress.

Loved the simple candor!

she's GORGEOUS...to this day....what is it about people expecting everyone to look 19? how stupid are people? oh, wait, yeah....I get it....

Truly enjoyed this wonderful interview so relaxing and great conversations.

I've just bought her book!! Enjoying thoroughly

One of the great actors in one of the best series in the history of TV. I don’t even watch the tube anymore. West Wing was the only thing that was equally intelligent. It was all downhill after that.

Murphy Brown was the most brilliant TV show on in the 90's, a true American treasure. Ms. Bergen is in NO WAY overweight here and in recent videos, she looks fabulous.

Love listening to Candice's stories. As fir aging and beauty, she looks at as an all American gal,. Isabella Rossellini's approasch to gaining weight with age is:"Not too bad," and she smiles beatifically. I do wish American women could be more like European women in that regard. But a very young European woman once said to me:"Your country is too young to create great women." She meant it in the kindest way and I agree with her.

Candice is so charming I could listen to her all day. Love her. I'm 3 days older than her.

It’s so sad that this beautiful, accomplished, wise woman feels that she needs to apologize for her weight. Seems that those impossible beauty standards follow us to the grave. Additionally, it sounds like Harry Shearer did zero prep for this talk.

Always had and still have a crush on Candie.

Great interview on both parts!

i wonder if Candice Bergen's relationship with her father Edgar Bergen was overshadowed by his popular ventriloquist dummy Charlie McCarthy? Personally i think Candice Bergen is a generous person for allowing us insight into her life personal as well as professional. Thank you Candice Bergen.Thank you Harry Smith. Cheers

I think that she looks great for her age. Many want time to freeze, which is silly. I also think that there is a confidence with aging also with some women that instead of too many face lifts, that they get to a point where it is not as important anymore. Not to say that she hasn’t had work, but she isn’t 80 trying to look 60

❤️ her!

Became almost a victim of the Manson family if she would have stayed at Cielo Drive. Glad she moved and tragic that Sharon Tate moved in.

Great actress!

What is it with these interviewers?! Endless questions about her weight, her looks, her surgeries, her romances, her child... But, as the audience questions reveal, what people want to hear about is her work! She's known for her work as an actress and photographer, not all the other stuff. And being once beautiful and now older and a bit heavier is neither remarkable nor worth talking about for more than two minutes.

Shes class.

I was always a fan of Murphy Brown, but I didn't truly know how talented Candice was! I love her and am grateful for her sharing herself with us. One of my favorite bits is when she is on SNL with Gilda Radner. It makes me laugh so hard!! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hJNledqH25u5lKM.html

I am Swedish on my father’s side and he was very affectionate and told my brothers and me that he loved us daily. Her parents’ issues with showing and verbally expressing love had zero to do with being Swedish.

Beauty, class & enigma.

Loved murphy brown

she was right about the interviwer; charming, oozing authenticity and kindness🥰

So interesting a woman to listen 2 - loved it

69 looks great...and her weight is good too skinny makes older people look older

She is marvellous,gorgeous,intelligent,her role in MARY & TIMS 1996 was unique n wonderful,,a great artist,loved her talent n fine personality.

Lovely lady.

С годами не утратила свою красоту...В фильме,,Жить,чтобы жить,, ее красота ослепляет..

You are so beautiful, inside and out❤️

I just read the book, great overview !

Candice Bergen has a career long before she did Murphy Brown.

Shame he never talked about the movies she's done.

We need to see the Alda -Candice thing on here.

Excellent video! Subscribed. Well, this gives me even less hope that Megan and Harry will ever be taken to task for their actions. If this wasn’t enough for Edward and Wallace, then what Harry and Meghan conduct is considerably quite a bit less. I think the only problems will be if they really try to insert themselves- Harry in particular, to affairs of governments around the world. He’s been starting to do that like he did in Canada. They must be kept very separate and let the Royals do their work on the world stage -no confusion. Yes, many times truth does come out in the most astounding ways . But the winners in the past wrote the history books or passed down the oral history, and they often tried to obliterate any hint of a former king or Pharaoh. Or give them such a terrible reputation with terrible stories.. that it is hard to sift through to find the truth. Or the opposite- everyone had a reason to be extremely flattering. Takes centuries to discover truths, some things are just lost for good. In this age, I don’t think that is possible.

No one is mentioning Candice's even more famous father, Edgar.

C'mon, You're the most beautiful person I know hahaha!

She's gonna be 80! Why even talk about body? Because she was so beautiful and so sexy most of her life. Many ppl don't have a moment of such beauty so I can't feel bad for her.

Honestly, weight and beauty are always issues because at any age we want to present at our best.Quite simply we want to be the best we can in every way.

murphy brown me manque ..

What's your secret, Candice?

I was looking for Harry Smith, the magicianI was looking for Harry Smith, the magician in Gnostic & Gnostic

Very enjoyable watch on a saturday morning. Shame it started out with the weight issues luckily it was pulled back. And the comment (above) about comparing Sandra Bullocks beauty with 60's and 70's stars objectifying women is still objectifying women no matter from what time period, these comparisons do not help. Candice Bergen I cannot explain why when I first saw her (noticed) in Boston Legal I was instantly drawn to her persona and presence as an actress, maybe I just have a fetish for strong female role model types.

Lady your beautiful...

When "People" Mag claims Sandra Bullock is the most beautiful woman in the world all you have to do is look at photos of Candice Bergen in the seventies & sixties (or Julie Christie, or Deneuve) to see how low the bar dropped regarding beauty today. I did read where Bergen joined the Scientology cult, though, like Seinfeld. Considering how obese it made Kirsty Alley, Candice got off easy.

Dear Candace, You look exactly like you did in “Carnal Knowledge” with a couple extra pounds (big whup), which is beautiful! You can’t fool this old fan. I’d recognize you in a NY minute in the dark in the rain. Pul-ease. 💋

As much as I love Heather Locklear, she would have been all wrong. Corky would have had to be an entirely different character because Corky and Murphy would have been too similar - no contrast at all.

I do not think she is overweight. She looks healthy. As you get in your forties you gain weight, especially If you are a Woman.

Screw the love letters, I'd rather have a husband (a real man) who could support me so that I didn't have to leave my child and go out to work!

I agree, lame jokes from Serena. Also, more than lame was her accolade for herself at the beginning 👎 There was an interesting moment when H stood up from the seat. You could clearly see how M clung to his hand and her face when he pulled out without acknowledging her was priceless. It definetely slipped before remembering the cameras

Doesn't she have a weird elvis story? She needs an honest tell all book.

Harry! Keep your fingers off your face!

Has she ever mentioned how her and Terry melcher dodged a bullet by moving out of that house just a few months before the Manson murders. Her boyfriend is the 1 Manson had it in for. 😳👎😞💩🔫

Wasn't she very close to being one of Charles Manson's victims?

Kinda bummed me out that she felt the need to start out by talking about her weight. It must really bother her that she looks like regular folk? Sad for her. I'm 5'3" 150 lbs and if it bothers anybody else... they can look away or whatever. Hope she's o.k.

This country is the greatest nation other than Israel and the only nation that has helped Israel more - God's covenant nation. Jer USA lem.

Sound is horrible,

Is she being prosecuted for failing to maintain proper hollywood image? Just give her probation to help the poor. Don't lock her up like bill cosby

I loved the movie she did with Burt Reynolds. Her husband sounds cheap

That doesn’t look like Candice Bergen.

ꜰᴏʀ ʟɪsᴀ. ❤. ❤ᴀʟᴡᴀʏs ᴀɴᴅ ꜰᴏʀᴇᴠᴇʀ ɪɴ ᴏᴜʀ ʜᴇᴀʀᴛs & PRAYERS

I can't understand why Harry Smith still has a job.

Isn't she just divine? Loved every minute of her.
