Mary was quoted once saying that this one was also her favorite too. "I really DO look better than this!" Mary recorded a 1-time variant on the MTM logo for this episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygtm4SXEeTwJonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00483417885845331990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1130871072830136009.post-80994673904530234552017-01-28T10:19:41.798-08:002017-01-28T10:19:41.798-08:00Mr. Hofstede, did you see the 1980 feature film &q...Mr. Hofstede, did you see the 1980 feature film "Ordinary People"? Mary Tyler Moore was in that flick. Also, I wonder if it's safe to say that the 1976 big-screen movie "Network" owed some of its success to "The Mary Tyler Moore Show." In any case, may Mary Tyler Moore, Mike Connors, and Barbara Hale all rest in peace.Christopher Stuarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17477722106362926482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1130871072830136009.post-87648734920744919792017-01-28T09:35:21.112-08:002017-01-28T09:35:21.112-08:00A very fitting tribute!

In addition to the two sitcoms, I rate highly her co-starring role alongside Elvis Presley in his last film, CHANGE OF HABIT (1969). She was a great actress and comedienne, and will be much missed. Thanks to DVD, there's no shortage of MTM to enjoy again and again.<br /><br />Her death sparked a trifecta of classic television passings, with Mike Connors and Barbara Hale following in her wake. A sad week indeed. Gary R. Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00811008380554433446noreply@blogger.com
