Eddie Fisher was a putz. Talented but a putz. How he managed to get not one, but three lovely stars to marry him is beyond me.
@chrisn7259 By “putz,” do you mean the laziest white man you ever saw, or the laziest Jewish man you ever saw?
He probably was very charming "! 😂❤😂
Your mother meant so much to so many!
Love her foreVer!
Todd, you and Carrie were Heaven's blessing to your mother for being put thru Hell. Love to you and Catherine.
Todd, I definitely want to read this book!!! Lordy, after you reading it, never mind! Your mama was too good for him.
Has the pleasure many years ago of seeing Debbie Reynolds perform in Annie Get Your Gun when we lived in Houston. What an amazing talent! She was one of a kind!
I adored Debbie! God bless Todd for enduring his huge loss! Enjoyed this interview very much! ❤
At least Debbie & Elizabeth reestablished their friendship. I read where they had a high old time, discussing Eddie. LOL
HOW CAN YOU FORGIVE THAT?
@@nancytabet8481 maybe they decided that he wasn't worth it after all. Who knows.
@@suehart919 That's a friendship stealing your friend's husband
@@nancytabet8481 I agree. But it wasn't my husband.
Todd, can't imagine how different yor life was being raised by two extremely famous people. Hats off to you
*Todd, Your dad certainly sounded like a he was so self absorbed in himself... thinking that he was the greatest lover on earth. But from two of his marriages, he helped a 'little' to produce 4 wonderful kids and they were all raised by two great mothers. So the question is, did he ever improve in the sack... but I guess not, seeing how many times he married & divorced... all short marriages. Debbie 1955-1959 ... Liz Taylor 1959-1964 ... Connie Stevens 1967-1969 ... Terry Richard 1975-1976 .... Betty Lin 1993-Died2001 - wiki is a great source of info.. Upon the book's publication, his daughter Carrie declared: "I'm thinking of having my DNA fumigated. Oh Carrie you are so missed... as is Debbie. You both rest in peace.🙂.*
Love Debbie!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I Debbie off a flight with SWA. She gave me a hug and we just talked..I love Debbie Reynolds
Eddie's book was oddly mean and a bit sloppy. Why trash the ex-wife you walked out on for her best friend? He never seemed to be very self-aware.
That's what narcissist do.
Thank you for sharing Todd 🙏🕊️🕯️🙏
Hope some man will learn from this ,no man I know or had relationships with was no smarter than Eddie.He got suckered in by Elizabeth
Todd, you don't need to justify your father's words in this so- called book! Debbie was the class act through and though! Your a wonderful son and brother, Your were raised well by a beautiful mother! I admire your love for these strong woman in your life!
Agreed, well said❤️
I adored your mom and sister, and really miss them. Glad you're still here, and your half sisters, too. I bought My Girls when it came out, and I love it.
My Mom introduced Debbie Reynolds to me on the screen in the Unsinkable Molly Brown when I was about 12 years old and I was wowed by her performance. I began seeing other movies that your Mom starred in and loved her performances and energy. I really loved your tribute to your Mom and sister, Carrie when they passed. It was so beautiful and such a graceful way to say goodbye to your family.
So interesting to hear you read this, and the discussion! That book has always been upsetting to me. Such a sweet and sad story about Robert Wagner. He wrote in his autobiography of Debbie, "It's fair to say she liked me very much." Aw. I wish he'd said something kinder! She deserved it!!
I am 73 now. Todd's parents were a generation ahead of me but I loved Debbie. Toward the end of her career, maybe 20 years ago now, she was still playing very small venues (Maybe Todd was with her doing her sound). We went and saw her in Lancaster, PA, Amish country. She was still great and doing it for the fun of doing it at that stage in her life. Eddie was really a self centered and awful human being. He was so hurtful to her, and likely to his kids as well. Clearly, Todd does not seem to have any good feelings. When Eddie wrote this book, for money and for his drugs and lifestyle, he was not thinking about the hurt it could cause her but only about himself. What kind of man does that? Not only that, but he was not even thinking that his hurtful words would live on for eternity and affect his kids, grandkids, etc. The public does not need to know this trash and it is just a shame he felt the need to put this all out there.
Damn!!! So glad I found you tonight. You have a profound knowledge of everything that is your family. You and Carrie tell it so well. I'm obsessed already.
I recall at Expo 67 in Montreal, at the American pavilion designed by the renowned Buckminster Fuller (and the geodesic dome is still on display to this day) there was an over-the-top display of Hollywood memorabilia....and the star piece in the show was Debbie Reynold's bed from the film The Unsinkable Molly Brown. Unforgettable!
I ALWAYS thought Eddie Fisher was just WEIRD!!!! What Debbie saw in that WEIRDO IS BEYOND ME!!!! And I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE READING ABOUT MY MOTHER AND FATHER AND SEX, YUCK!!!!
The real story behind the stories is a way of protecting the actual legacy of great people... your mother has been one of my favourites of all time, since I was a child...
Debbie was so hilarious and talented in comedy. She was adorable and so likable.
Todd, I have your book now, and I am SO enjoying it!! ❤❤❤
This was great! Thanks Todd for enduring the intimate details of your parents relations for our knowledge. ;) Taking it for the team. lol
I had no idea you two had a channel together! I loved hearing this story. I love Catherine’s cosmetic line and Todd, I am so pleased that you are able to speak so candidly about your parents and your upbringing. A lot of people can’t.
Wish I could see more of Todd Fisher. He reminds me so much of his mother and sister.
I love your stories and loved bright lights, very entertaining!! Thanks
Thank you, Todd and Cat, for sharing! I love and miss your Mom & Sister to this day, had lots of laughs going down a Carrie Fisher rabbit hole on CZcams recently, great stuff🙏❤️
My mother named me after Debbie Reynolds. She was first class!
No matter what anyone says Eddie Fisher had the GREATEST singing voice. We met him several times and he always took time for his fans. He made mistakes in his love affairs but we forgive him. Wish someone would release his "Coke time TV Show". They are GREAT. I have 15 of these wonderful shows and would love to have a complete set. Eddie should have stayed single and not got hooked on drugs.
I am Appalled at this so-called son of Eddie Fisher. He’s the one who’s turned out to be such an asshole. I don’t believe anything he is reading…l think he probably wrote this diary himself. Just to be in the limelight is all he’s after. What a Putz! To do this to his dead father is a tragedy!
Actually the opera star, Mario Lanza, who also grew up in South Philly had a much better voice.
Robert Wagner and ur mom starred in the movie Say One For Me along with Bing Crosby . I always enjoyed that movie.
One of my all time favorite films was called "Say One for Me", staring Bing Crosby, Robert Wagner and Debbie Reynolds.
this was a superb show
Love your honesty Todd😊 wish you and your beautiful wife would do a podcast as well ...always been a big Debbie fan.. thank you Sybil from South Africa
Ty TODD for sharing this book ur mom a classy lady👏🇨🇦
I love listening to both of you. Just stumbled here today. I’ve never heard anyone talk about Debbie , Eddie & Liz’s dynamic of their relationships. More interesting than I expected. Subbed. You both seem to be such authentic people. Love & respect that so much.
Thank you for this video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I read Eddie Fisher’s book and it made me so angers when he trashed your mother. Your presentation tells me your Mother did a good job raising you
Todd you are fabulous
the red car in the photo is a Thunderbird.
Eddie deeply regretted his marriage to Liz from his interviews. I always liked his voice and his performances you can see on CZcams. He is always inrteresting to me and never boring as to the life he led.
I read that book…it was very entertaining…
Robert Wagner and Debbie did make a movie together i watched it last night. Say One for Me. Bing Crosby was also in it
I read the book some years ago. The opening chapters were quite brilliant. I thought everyone should read this book. Then I read it to the end and thought 'maybe not'.
Love Debbie & Eddie. ♥
I’ve read the book. It was great and very believable.
Eddie Fischer was not a handsome man. He was short and obnoxious too.
Fred Rogers was not a handsome man, either. He did not use his fame to make passes at women during his marriage. And Mr. Rogers had musical talent, like Eddie Fisher.
Neither is Steve Buscemi, but women still love him.
@sipe34 That does not necessarily mean Steve makes a commitment to one woman then grabs another.
Neither was Micky Rooney !!! I mean Ava Gardner, MM ?!
@@spaceengineer1452 what was she thinking?
Oh, hey, liked your book, Todd Fisher. Probably the most fascinating observation was how much her father meant to Carrie and how you could take it or leave it. Probably just a result of when your dad left your life, right? Interesting observation.
Your dad was a sad soul. Just desperation. Your mother was an American treasure! ❤
Did Eddie ever talk about his regrets in losing Debbie. I always loved Connie Stevens & her daughters also. Loved Connie on HSN Shopping for a long time. She was such a warm person like Debbie. Both so so cute and down to earth.
That was funny thanks for that 😄
Todd is Great.
He should have acted full time.
Catherine is always Gorgeous. I Love her work. I met her once - Beautiful.
Todd, I might buy the book ONLY if the profits go to YOU!
One has to feel really sad for Debbie.
That is a Thunderbird.
Love Debbie and Carrie.
I wondered who was taking the dating pictures too! They had to have been posed pictures. My first thought was also that Eddie probably was clueless in bed.
That red sports car in the picture IS a Thunderbird..
You have every right to speak about your immediate family, your niece should have some respect for you
Why would he write about his sex life and why do we need to know about it?
I'm from Southern California I'm 90 years old and Debbie would have been a couple years older than me by now cuz we were almost the same age when we were in our twenties and I always wanted to make my eyebrows like her and act like her the only thing I didn't look like her I look more like Elizabeth Taylor that's weird people said I did anyway. And from what all the books I read and heard that he was well endowed and that could could have been the problem cuz it's not what you have it's what you can do with it without getting to
I need this book.
1) In the intro to Singin' in the Rain, between the star credits and the rest, the three are all walking in downpour under umbrellas with galoshes and raincoats, so Eddie's memory wasn't totally incorrect. 2) Debbie DID make a movie with Robert Wagner but it was in 1959 and when Debbie was 20 it was 1952. 3)The red car in front of which Debbie is standing IS, in fact, a T-bird. Since they married in '55, he probably brought it in fall of '54. 4) Richard Burton said of ET that every night was like a one night stand, so it probably was the same with Eddie and he was probably gaga about that. I remember hearing Eddie in the very early 50s, when I was very young. I also remember seeing him sing on the Academy Awards (I think it was '61 and the song was Tonight). He was a good singer. I actually was impressed with the cut of his tuxedo! I didn't sew then so can't figure out why that caught my attention, except for the camera angle. There was no pucker in the set-in sleeve.
Eddie Fisher sounds like he was a piece of work. Me personally, I don’t care about how Debbie Reynolds was presenting herself when she was younger and none of EF’s writing changes my opinion of her. If any of this is true, I’m glad to know that she was just another human being like the rest of us.
I don't know why , but I think your a swell guy Todd . And I must say your dad was my favorite male singer when he was hot and on the Billboards all of the time . I have his no. 1 hits CD's . for pure nostalgia of my youth . And your mom was one in a million and I'm sure you must agree on that . I seen her show when she came to Chicago here at Drury Lane . God bless you and your loved one .
The last thing I want to know as a 50 year old woman, is the sex life of either one of my parents. Ick factor is huge.
Todd has gained weight since I met him, it was either in the 90's or the early 2000's. He had a nice first wife, was the daughter of Stan Freberg. Eddie was 'different', but after getting well from the BETTY FORD clinic, He was like a regular guy and we had fun talking about different mutual interests; BOXING, OLD MOVIES, WOMEN, MEN'S FASHION etc.
Let's just call him fast Eddie
Specific so she was probably in pain a lot poor thing. My girlfriends and I even had our ponytails like her and only copied her a lot. During that time Flats were the thing to wear with capris. And sweaters. The color that was popular in the 50s was Periwinkle blue and I had a Angora sweater that was that if I knew where that Angora came from I wouldn't have bought that I didn't even think about it back then. And your Flats always had to match your sweater or your capris that's my picture over to the left here at 89 years old
He's protecting his mother. And who could blame him
Wasn't he married to Elizabeth Taylor while he was courting Debbie Reynolds?
(Apperantly he was married to Debbie Reynolds and cheated on her with Elizabeth Taylor. I remember the brouhahaha when that happened. Sorry, I got it bass ackward.)
No, he was married to Debbie and had a sleazy affair with Elizabeth Taylor which ended Eddie and Debbie’s marriage. And Elizabeth was one of Debbie’s close friends. A terrible double betrayal. The fact that in their later years Debbie forgave Elizabeth and reconciled their friendship is a testament to the class act Debbie was.
@@tammymcc-n7652 Thanks, I got it all backwards. Hard to keep up with all the Hollywood Sleaze....
No,married to Debbie....cheated with Elizabeth
@@jacquelinehayes4481 Yeah, I don't know how I got that bass ackward!
No, he was married to Debbie Reynolds and cheated on her with Elizabeth Taylor after Taylor’s husband died
Debbie Reynold spent over 50 years talking about her failed marriage - really sad ( and really boring)
I’m so glad in the 1970s, she finally found a man that sexually pleased her. The truth is, I imagine back in those days, if a woman wasn’t satisfied, she was a “bad lay” and it would be considered her fault. I think in her later years, she had a lot of fun talking with Elizabeth Taylor and Connie Stevens about Eddie. I’m sure they exchanged interesting stories and laughed. She wrote a funny story in her book about getting her mom a vibrator because she knew her mom never had an orgasm. She seemed strangely obsessed with her parents sex life for some reason. It’s cute in an eccentric sort of way and that’s what made her an interesting person.
Didn't he write two books?
Dude thats to much to know about your moms se life. I feel for Debbie Reynolds if she was ever with a Narcissist it is the worst ever
It is said love bombing is a red flag
I was best dressed at Burbank
I never understood how he managed to get these beautiful women to marry him. He had a wonderful voice but wasn’t exceptionally handsome and he was a drug addict! Debbie was way too good for him.
Poor debbie lol
ALL ENTERTAINERS AND ACTORS have somewhat narcissistic tendencies - otherwise they couldn't be so committed to their craft. Both of them grew up selling the image of men and women and believed it themselves. They thought they were real and found out later that it was not. Cut your dad some slack. Both of them were only human. Besides, mom wasn't exactly well either.
I only hope just one man can learns from this.Don't get suckered in by those women like Ms. Taylor . Ruined his whole life.
This is creepy… Todd… stop.
It is. Why Hollywood people can’t just be quiet but they love the attention too much.
How cringy this is.🤢
Hello there, I hope all is well with you and your family. I had the opportunity to meet your Mom twice. She was a Lovely person and a tremendous influence to me when I was a dancer. I wish I could have purchased one of the items from the auction years ago. .. Glad I found your channel.. enjoyed the HBO documentary as well years ago. Have a wonderful weekend. 👠👠 Gigi 📿🥀🙏
Ty TODD for sharing this book ur mom a classy lady👏🇨🇦
