RIP Paula Kelly aka Leggy Peggy

I didn't watch Night Court or Brewster Place. But I did see her in Uptown Saturday Night.

Been a long time since I saw it but other than Richard Pryor or Sidney Poitier, I strickley remember Leggy Peggy, Paula was great in that role.

Endless thanks for uploading this. Paula Kelly's name/picture should be beside the word unsung. Her name is never mentioned among the great African-Americans pioneers of the arts! She has conquered so many genres of entertainment. I admit I had never heard of her until she appeared on Sanford & Son lol but even in that hilarious Afrocentric episode, she was captivating!
