To go along with today's extensive InDepth InterView with comedy legend Joan Rivers, enjoy two exclusive clips from tonight's episode of JOAN & MELISSA: JOAN KNOWS BEST? on WE TV at 9 PM.

In the clips, Joan reaches out to Melissa to help her find a ride to a liquor store while on the road to colonial Williamsburg on a family vacation, while in the second clip we glean a glimpse of Joan protesting the banning of her most recent book at Costco.

Joan discusses JOAN & MELISSA: JOAN KNOWS BEST? in this excerpt from our conversation.

PC: JOAN & MELISSA is better than ever this season, as well.

JR: Yes! I love doing JOAN & MELISSA! I just love it. It's a joy to be able to do both.

PC: And you even kiss a woman this season on JOAN & MELISSA!

JR: That's right! Can you believe it? I'll do just about anything for ratings! [Laughs.]

PC: You, Jane Lynch, Jane Wagner and Lily Tomlin all at the same table - an Unforgettable convergence of talent.

JR: I know, I know - legends! I have to tell you, though, the stuff we didn't show for that episode - the stories going way back many, many years with Lily and I and Jane and her friends; it was just a great, great night. I'm so happy we got it on the show.

PC: Aren't we all! What stories were told?

JR: Well, it's just amazing to think of all the years Lily and Jane have been together - and they are both so smart! Wonderful, wonderful women - all of them at that dinner. As I said, it was a great night - just a great night.

PC: Tell me about what we are going to see on this week's JOAN & MELISSA - you go to colonial Williamsburg, do you not?

JR: We do! We do! I mean, have you ever been to colonial Williamsburg?

PC: I have.

JR: Oh, isn't it great? It's fabulous.

PC: It is.

JR: It's wonderful, but it was a little weird, too. But, I have to tell you: ugh, our trip - it was a total mess!

PC: What happened?

JR: Well, first of all, we went on Willie Nelson's old tour bus and the toilet broke! We get on the bus and then the first that that happens is the toilet breaks - we honestly didn't plan any of what happens. You'll see on the show. It was a great, great trip though - a lot of fun - and it makes for a good show, too!

PC: I bet! Did you find any goodies left behind by Willie?

JR: No, but I know what you mean! [Laughs.] I think the driver was a remnant still left over from Willie Nelson - and Steven Tyler; he's another one who had that bus for a while.

PC: Thank goodness for HD technology, too: JOAN & MELISSA: JOAN KNOWS BEST? is now in its third hit season on WE TV. How great!

JR: Yes! Yes. I am so, so happy we get to do JOAN & MELISSA all the time - it's a lot of fun to watch, too, isn't it?

PC: Of course. This season has some of the best episodes yet so far.

JR: Oh, this season has been fantastic - and we're only two episodes in!

PC: You look great and your clothes have been beautiful this season. Where did you get that cherry-themed jacket in Episode 3?

JR: Oh, the one I'm wearing on the episode this week? Yeah, I love that one, too - it's gorgeous. I think that's either Dolce & Gabbana or it's from my own Joan Rivers Collection. I'm not sure, but it's one of the two.

PC: Speaking of Dolce & Gabbana, I adored your remark on JOAN & MELISSA that they are the only team you follow.

JR: It's true - they are! I don't watch sports. [Laughs.]
