Here We Go Again
Here We Go Again: My Life In Television | Betty White
23 posts | 15 read | 21 to read
A memoir of Betty White's first five decades on televisionas irreverent and irresistible as the beloved actress herself. Betty White first appeared on television in 1949 and has gone on to have one of the most amazing careers in TV history, starring in shows such as Life with Elizabeth, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, and The Golden Girls, among many others. She is one of the hardest-working actresses of any era, and her sense of humor and perennial optimism have seen her through half a century of industry changes and delighted millions of fans. Now, during Bettys sixty-first year on screen, a year in which she has enjoyed a huge resurgence of popularity, her 1995 memoir makes a comeback too. Here We Go Again is a behind-the-scenes look at Bettys career from her start on radio to her first show, Hollywood on Television, to several iterations of The Betty White Show and much, much more. Packed with wonderful anecdotes about famous personalities and friendships, stories of Bettys off-screen life, and the comediennes trademark humor, this deliciously entertaining book will give readers an entre into Bettys fascinating life, confirming yet again why we cant get enough of this funny lady.

For #weremember I wanted to make sure I Read something about one of my favorite actors, Betty White. This read as if she‘d sat down next to me and told me her story. Such a fun read. She was beloved for a reason. @egg @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I know my #AudioColoring picture doesn‘t match White‘s character on the show, but this is the only picture I have finished in my #GoldenGirls coloring book! I bought this title in an Audible sale, and have been meaning to listen to it since the start of the year. I loved listening to White recount her television (and radio!) career from the forties to the early nineties! It‘s a pleasure to listen to- I only wish it had more detail!

SilversReviews Love your picture!! 3y

What an amazing human being Betty White was… this was a fun look back at how she started her career and the trajectory that it took! Every time I picked this up I felt like I was having a conversation with an old friend!

TV icon and just generally awesome person. I started reading this on what would have been Betty's 100th birthday. I thought I knew a lot about her career, but man, was it amazing. Still sad that's the world has lost such an amazing person. #07-2022

Who doesnt love Betty White! I could listen to her for hours. This was only her life from 1949-1994. I must see if she has another.

mom2bugnbee She has a few, I believe! I've listened to a different one, & will definitely stack this! 4y

I love Betty White. While I knew her career spanned decades I didn't know what that entailed. It's amazing all the people she worked with or met along the way. There's also a little about her personal life; nothing too deep but just enough to get to know her. Unfortunately there is not a lot about the Golden Girls and I have to wonder if that's not on purpose given the fact they didn't always get along? Overall though, I really enjoyed this.

Booklovergirl By the way, what did you think about her book? Is it any good? Is it worth the patience and worth the reading time, energy and ca$h? 5y

Author #7 - This one may be a little tricky. Who am I? Guess the author and name a book she writes. If you have read any of her books I want to hear all about it! 😁Here is a little hint: After reading her book, I have been so creeped out I keep looking over my shoulder when going on runs alone and I felt like I needed 1000 showers after each chapter lol

Craftylikefox Caroline Kepnes oooo boy You creeped me out, and messed with my head. 7y

Once again it is impossible for me to be unbiased. I have so much love for Betty White, and it was an absolute delight to here her talk so much about her life, both on camera and off. 💗⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💗 #Audible #AudioBook #Memoir

Betty White narrates her own audiobook about her start in Hollywood and the ups and downs of various shows she appeared on throughout the years.I enjoyed her commentary about her time on The Mary Tyler Moore Show and the Golden Girls.
