I watch this episode once every six months..Joanne was such a great and beautiful guest. Too bad she left Rocketboom. Gary, invite her back on the show. www.winelx.com

Just visited rocketboom.com after watching this episode for the 12'th time (one of the GREAT WLTV episodes), and it seems that Joanna has left the site!

Mr. GV - how about asking her, to come visit again, to tell us what's been up since the first episode with her?

Just saw this episode by following the link from the 2000 Legras St Vincent. I am still laughing my a** off. What a funny and charming guest! Love this.

I'd never seen this episode before, but Damn that was funny! What a charming guest!

One of the best episodes.....and really awesome guest.....fantastic

Great guest. Two years later and this ep rocks. Cat food! Beauty. I'm looking for a cheap date like her. A 2 sniffy sniff Betty. She is also very real and intelligent. Never heard of Rocket boom till now. Will have to check it out.

I am going to be honest. I only watched this episode because I thought the chick was hot but how much did she have to drink before the show???? She was pissed.

Wow, this is one of my favorite episodes so far. The chemistry between Gary and Joanne was phenomenal. My favorite portion was near the end when they got into a "smell off" and Gary mentioned " RBI BASEBALL 2 FRESHLY OPENED FROM A NINTENDO PACKAGE" that cracked me up, great content for sure.

I know this is pretty late to be commenting on this episode, but screw it, I'm a developing Vayniak and I'm ripping through the archives.

QOTD: Joanne didn't get it, she's sorry!

GREAT episode...she was FAB!!! It's always great when a guest relates well to the camera! Hugs and kisses from Kentucky

Visited because it is a "Joanne-link" and enjoyed watching her get a little tipsy. Simply love Joanne Colan and Rocketboom.

I'm glad I visited--my first visit. If Gary's other programs are this interesting and informative, this will become a must-visit site on a regular basis--enjoy his enthusiasm and love of wines. Let me guess; it is no longer active. I'll find out soon enough with future visits.

Thanks Gary. And thank you, Joanne.

This is great stuff, although im really new to this wine stuff but great job on making the show really informative and entertaining, gary. and joanne is so lovely, amazing personality, honest, fun and witty. I'm sure people will be thrilled to have her back on your show sometime in the future.

CLASSIC WLTV. This is the goods right here, the meat and bones of it all. This is the episode you show friends when you want to get them hooked. I could ramble for donkeys but I have 200 plus more episodes to watch to catch up. QOTD: There was none that I could make out so I'll just go with "Monty Python is genius."

i think i love her....... great accent, nice on the eyes, smart and witty. your best guest ever

I loved this episode! A strong female that's not afraid to say she doesn't know much about wine, on a wine show, I loved it! Can't wait to see more guests.

Loved the show, very unique stuff!

A bit behind on my commenting :)

Oh well.

Good show! I liked Joanne...will have to check out Rocketboom.

one man's opinion, and we all know what that is worth...
compared to Joanne, dear sweet Pipes is like nails on a chalkboard.
Luv 'em both. Luv one more than the other.
I want Gary & Joanne simulcast on WLTV & Rocketboom!

QOTD: I think it's very clear that the answer to the question is 42

An intelligent, beautiful woman? Your show has jumped in quality 10-fold.

Fun show Gary!

Joanne was a nice guest, good looking too.

Want to see Joanne in a bikini romping on some island the tropics, watch "Any Given Latitude" on HGTV "HD" Saturday mornings. I thinks it's also on the HDTV network.

Wonderful French, Joanne!

GV,
Great episode, she was a great guest.


QOTD: Purple with a little bit of red on the edges

Great show! Joanne has a great sense of humor!
I would have preferred to see more of her - seeing from the mid-riff up leaves so much to the imagination.

She never finished her QOTD. What is my Guinness Book World Of Records related to wine (?).

I guess that I will give one of my favorite wines that I have ever drank. I would say that a wine tasting that I had in Puligny Montrachet where I was at a lunch tasting and drank some phenomenal whites, including a Corton Charlemagne grand Cru (I grabbed a rock from the Le Montrachet vineyard).

Thanks for friending me up! My 18 year old daughter thinks it is a bit weird that her dad has a facebook account.

great show, what a fun, cute brit.

Gary and Joanne, Really great show! sorry that I am a few days behind, but your on-screen chemistry was great! Somebody mentioned a morning show with wine. . .I don't think that's too far off. Joanne, thank you for coming, you were a real pleasure. Gary, I agree that it's a great idea to engage non-wine internet personalities. . .maybe some vice versa?

Cheers!

Fun show GeeVee! But why is there a picture of a penis on your chalkboard?

Super great show!

Great show - Joanne, you're awesome.

Nice change of pace!

BRIT ROCK!

Joanne was absolutely CHARMING. And I'm not just saying that because I'm single, or because GaryV could pass along my email addy to her......

My QOTD -- Does Joanne twirl?

Great Show freaking hilarious :)
QOTD: ??????

Nice change of pace. How did you ever manage to get the wine tasting in? Joanne is a cute girl, fabulous personality and kept us entertained for 28, that's right, 28 minutes. You'd normally have to give away free stuff to keep us glued to the show for that long.

Great episode awesome guest! Can't wait for you to bring Joanne back for an encore.

This was a very entertaining episode and really seemed to polarize the audience. In response to comments on both ends of the spectrum: Lighten up and don't be so rude. Keep the guests coming, but not every episode. Keep us guessing.

Great show and wonderful guest. Refreshigly entertaining!

I enjoyed the episode very much (even at 28 mins – yikes!) However, I did not enjoy Koolbooy’s (et. al.) rude and salacious comments below the picture (I don’t really care for that feature anyway.) Crass commenting may be a part of cyber-culture but it’s hardly “kool.” Hats off to Mikemc and Hewins for stepping up and calling Koolbooy on it.

Joanne was great! You two should be on the Food Network as a team, absolutely brilliant tension/chemistry, humor. Good stuff!
