- Comment #1 - ''talkingham'' says "I never like Doris Day. Never trust anyone named Melcher or Bush." I bet this dried up poster has one standard post that says "I never like -------------. Never trust anyone named --------- or Bush."
Doris/Clara...you defined ''woman'' for me as I grew up and watched your movies. Pajama Game was great too. Doris Day brought humor and beauty into our lives...and we love her. Thanks Doris. - Reply to this comment
- So darling...So talented...Wonderful Actress...Beautiful voice...of her own and for "all" the animals...I have adored Doris Day from the first "day" I saw her films...The Magic of Rock Hudson and she was Electric/they were so perfect for one another on and off the screen with their work and friendship! My favorite films of theirs were ALL "3"!
And with Tony Randall/what could be better! The film with James Garner/the remake of Marilyn Monroe''s last film she was fired from/the best...can''t remember the title! She was so deserving of having that "Great Home,Man and Family to share/she has her beautiful home and son/close to her heart...but I do so relate to just enjoying the animals/they don''t hurt you like human beings do!! Doris...We love you...Always Will!!!You are one of the most priceless parts of my life and I know of millions of others...We cherish you in our hearts...Happy...Many...Many years ahead !!! - Reply to this comment

She was hot. In a girl-next-door way. - Reply to this comment
- I have always enjoyed Doris Day movies and she was a joy. I hope she is very happy now. I too love animals and have never been married. It works for me.

- It is still a disgrace - no honorary Oscar. No Kennedy Center honors.

- Doris Day was one of greats of Hollywood! She was terrific in Midnight Lace as well as the comedy films she made in the 60''s. I have quite a few of her movies. They are still masterpieces as far as I am concerned.

Yes we do Love her still. She was the mother that we all wished we had, not saying my mom was bad. But she couldn''t sing a lulliby like Doris Day could either.
Glad to hear that she is alive and well. Hopefully she will read these comments and know that we still love and respect her very much. Doubt that she will see these though.
Good Luck Doris, may you live happily ever after. - Reply to this comment
- It''s time for the Acadamy to pony up for never giving Doris her due in Hollywood and acknowledging her vast talent. This woman ruled in the 50''s and 60''s and made a lot of people in the industry very wealthy.
Doris deserves an Honorary Academy Award BEFORE she dies!! She did so much for Hollywood, and SO MUCH for all her fans. Time to pay her back for the "Doris Day Backlash" that happened in the late 60''s - 70''s.
She is a woman who was never truly given the credit she deserved. A woman who did it all so very well - singing, drama and comedy ... we still love you Doris! - Reply to this comment

She doesn''t like black guys. Not her style. If you would of read her biography you would not that. - Reply to this comment
- Her singing voice almost seemed to have a smile in it.
In the early 1960s she was the top earning star, male or female. I remember being told this by my journalism teacher, who had been a Hollywood agent. - Reply to this comment
- "This is actually a VERY VERY SAD story. If you really look at it, it''''s about the pursuit of fame and fortune over the REAL and Simple pleasures in life. She probably would have been happier in her life staying in Cincinatti and being a Housewife."
I''m glad she didn''t stay in Cincinnati. I''ve managed to collect most of her movies and I get great joy from watching them. In my opinion, she was far more gifted an actress than some gave her credit for. While I thoroughly enjoy the many romantic comedies, I am just as enthralled with her dramatic efforts, especially in "Young At Heart", "Midnight Lace" and "The Man Who Knew Too Much."
I''m glad she has found some contentment and happiness now. I look forward to reading this book. - Reply to this comment
- Hollywood is a thing of the past. Doris Day is an icon of wonderful movies. I remember all of them and her singing. It was wonderful. Her comedy films were just hilarious, no one could ever have done them better. That Touch of Mink, Pillow Talk, the hypochondriac Hudson were all so funny. It was sad about her son. I am sure it was so painful for her, we all feel for her.
Thank you Doris, for all the laughter and good singing you gave us.
Love always from your vast fans-who have gathered around the record player***

I''m happy to hear she''s not dead like I thought...I like all of her movies...- Reply to this comment
- She was probably the best female comedic talent in Hollywood next to Lucille Ball. We all adored her. She is America''s lost treasure. I wish her all the best.

- She was blessed with an appeal. I was crazy about her when I was around 5 or 6 ...I think she had a sitcom called "Please Don''t Eat the Daisies". That''s what I remember. She had two boys and a dog that came running in and jumping on everyone sometimes.

- I absolutely adore Doris Day the actress and singer, and my heart goes out to Doris Kappelhoff, the woman. It took me four tries (in the marriage department) before I got it right, Doris, and I''m just thankful that I didn''t give up. If I could, I would turn back time and grant you the same.

- Doris you were a true American treasure and you brought happiness to so many people with your films and your beautiful voice. Thank you. I wish you a VERY long life and excellent health to enable you to continue helping animals. You are doing God''s work.
