Throwback Thursday Comedy Special: Joan Rivers - 50 Years Ago on Hollywood Palace


For today's Throwback Thursday comedy special, we go back fifty years for a Joan Rivers standup comedy stint on The Hollywood Palace.

 The date was February 5, 1966, and Joan's performance was a preview of the themes that she would use for the next 40 plus years of standup comedy.

 Enjoy!

    This really is so dated. Anti-gay jokes, fat shaming. Can't believe we once thought she was so funny.
