She’s beginning to annoy herself … Candice Bergen | Today 2:00 amHumming. In my later years, I have started humming, sometimes singing, all the time. And usually when alone. And my husband is humilated by it. I, myself, am humiliated by it and try to stop but can’t. It’s like a tic. Maybe it’s like smoking or using a pacifier or keeping myself company. But it’s always the same thing that I hum and I made it up. Some lame-assed tune, and it is...  

I started a teeny movie Monday for three weeks just to break the patternCandice Bergen | Today 12:00 amThe past year! I have not worked since last November. But actors have that as a job description. In fact, I started a teeny movie Monday for three weeks just to break the pattern.  

They’re a team with a fantastic and long history …Candice Bergen | Today 12:00 amWell, Liz seems to have a strong point of view on this (as on all else) but I, while knowing little about the Yankees, loved following the World Series. I think they are a classy, charismatic team with a few colorful characters. Derek Jeter is a natural captain. Loved watching Rivera pitch with a poker face then break into the great grin when they won. Andy...  

Who did Candice and her daughter watch religiously on ‘Sesame Street’?Candice Bergen | Today 12:00 am My favorite Sesame Street memory is watching it when my daughter was tiny and loving Count 1, 2, 3, 4 and teaching kids to brush their teeth with a huge toothbrush that had two big tufts of bristles. One for each fang. Also doing a show and bringing Chloe to the set. Watch Elmo interview Candice Bergen below...  

Katharine Hepburn and Marlon Brando had both rented the house …Candice Bergen | Today 12:00 amMy first adult purchase was a house. A very quirky but fabulous house that had once been John Barrymore’s aviary where he kept exotic birds in a large skylit room that became my bedroom. Katharine Hepburn and Marlon Brando had both rented the house and it had stained-glass windows with scenes from Barrymore’s movies. It was a tiny house with a little...  

This Los Angeles girl only trusted milk from one man …Candice Bergen | Today 12:00 amWe had a milkman in Los Angeles and he was the Adohr man. There was also an Arden milkman but I mistrusted him as I was an Adohr gal myself.    

She says travel since 9/11 … I argue otherwiseCandice Bergen | 11/02/2009 4:35 pmWhen my daughter, who is 24, and I talked about the biggest changes in our lives since birth, she said the difference is in travel — the travel experience since 9/11, which has been completely transformed. But I said technology. Specifically, communications. Revolutionized. Utterly.  

Thank God, my husband walked into my apartment in an elegant pair of loafers …Candice Bergen | Today 12:00 am Handwriting doesn’t always work as two of the best and most intelligent people I know have the cursive of a cripple. My husband, however, has beautiful, graceful, sensual handwriting. It shows a level of education, the REGION in which a person is raised, intelligence and a certain intellectual organization. Or lack of. Shoes for me...  

What Letterman did to emerge as more humane, more manly, more of a mensch than before …Candice Bergen | Today 12:00 am The wrongdoing thing is interesting because it can diminish people in an instant. Clinton crumbled. Edwards — roadkill. Letterman, on the other hand, has so far emerged greatly enhanced. We happened to be watching the night he made his confession and it was masterful. Spellbinding. He handled it brilliantly. Honest...  

There was a great detail that Hughes carried a paper bag of prunes!Candice Bergen | Today 12:00 amI remember vividly the Clifford Irving/Howard Hughes hoax for its utter chutzpah and weird details on Hughes. Don’t remember the year but maybe the ’70s? And it was riveting. Everyone was convinced. And wasn’t that forger involved? Elmyr de Hory? They were accomplices somehow and lived in Ibiza? Then Bermuda entered into it? Or am I hallucinating...  

Afghanistan or Pakistan?Candice Bergen | Today 12:00 amAfghanistan? I thought we were shifting our focus to Pakistan. That’s where Al-Qaeda is said to be hanging these days. The Taliban is supposedly no threat to the West. Unless they team up. Which they are wont to do.  

Guess what wormed its way into our brain matter? Candice Bergen | Today 12:00 amMultitasking seems to have wormed its way into our brain matter and I’m not sure that’s a good thing, but it’s tough to turn back now. What’s most distressing is multitasking when driving. Oy. That gets me nuts. Texting. Talking. Drinking. Watching TV. All the while at the wheel. Insane.   And I think it has destroyed our attention spans. Well, on top of MTV...  

"Murphy Brown" followed the backstage misadventures at a fictional television newsmagazine called "FYI." Candice Bergen starred as the title character, a recovering alcoholic returning to work after a stay in rehab. Bergen won a record-breaking five ...
