I used to think that Taylor had tons of prepared material for interviews like this because she always seemed to have a funny response ready to go. But then the jokes just kept coming and I realized, wait a second, she is just that quick. Either she has a massive rolodex of jokes for every possible situation or her brain writes jokes like ChatGPT. Either way, I'm looking forward to her show!

For the record, I am 65 and find her to be one of the funniest women comics in the world. I would go further and say she is one of the quickest minds in comedy. She is Robin Williams with breasts. Just as with all the best comedians, she seems to live for hecklers. The best ones look, scan the audience, for hecklers. That gives them a vehicle to keep the rest of the crowd entertained. She is literally that quick. I have no problem putting her in the same category as Robin, at least as a comedian. I don't know what kind of actor she is, as I can't recall her being in anything, but I would wager she could aquit herself just fine in a film.

I've only seen (and really enjoyed) her stand up, but good stand ups have so many transferable skills that moving into hosting, acting, or other disciplines usually pays dividends. And with her self-deprecating humour I'm very much looking forward to seeing what she does. But just in case the TV companies have forgotten, it's not "1 in, 1 out" so you're allowed to bring back Sam Bee and Amber Ruffin. 😉

But I've interviewed a lot of actors in my industry and the thing that you're never prepared for are the celebs who are actually more good-looking in real life, to the point that they don't even seen human. It takes your brain a little while to catch up to the questions your mouth is asking because it shorts out for a second just trying to get your head around their face.
