"People either have comedy or they don't; you can't teach it to them," Lucille Ball famously said. Lucy, of course, had it in spades - just like the other Funny Ladies in TCM's roundup of great comic female actresses. Each Thursday in October, Turner Classic Movies presents a lineup of rib-tickling films featuring many of the cinema's most gifted comediennes. This Spotlight is hosted by actress/filmmaker Illeana Douglas, a TCM regular who has presented other programming related to accomplishments by women in film; and comedy legend Carol Burnett, a special favorite of television, stage and film audiences for decades.—Roger Fristoe
