I just saw the preview on Netflix. Can't wait!!!
I know Joan could be harsh at times, but there was so much more to her.

Has anyone seen it?

Is this a new program? She made a documentary several years ago called A Piece of Work. It was excellent!

I have not seen it but will add to my watchlist...I liked Joan Rivers and her no nonsense style!!!

@bathing I guess this is the same?

Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work was in the theaters a few years ago.  The documentary followed Joan during her 75th year.  It is a wonderful documentary that did well as a feature film in the the theaters.  It should have been nominated for an oscar for Best Documentary. If you have an opportunity to see the documentary, do not hesitate.  It is very entertaining and well done.  You will come away having even more respect for Joan Rivers and her career.

Enjoy it. It really gives you a new perspective on Joan. I've always liked her humor and miss her commentary on just about everything!

How about her apartment in NYC? And her house in Connecticut! She lived well, but worked her tail off for every bit of it.

Excellent documentary.

Yes she was such an incredibly hard worker.  

I loved her - really miss her.

She was one of a kind, and truly missed.  It's funny, and I don't know why, but of all the celebs we often say that about after their passing, how "sorely missed they will be", it seems we move forward and they are sort of forgotten.  But I hear others say it, and I always do too...I really still miss Joan Rivers, and wish she was still around, doing her thing, making us laugh, saying outragous things, selling on Q etc... and maybe it's because she remained on our tvs, for decades, in different capacities, I still feel the void & miss her presence!
