      I didn't have a crush but I always thought she was so pretty and had such a fascinating smokey voice. I've seen her in several movies and always enjoyed her work. Like many, i was so saddened to hear when she passed. She's one that you always think will always be there. I agree with you: She was a great one!

    Those were the days of great television. Bob Newhart, Mary Tyler Moore, Dick Van Dyke, Perry Mason, Twilight Zone, Carol Burnett, Johnny Carson, Hollywood Squares, Price is Right, Happy Days, Sanford and Son, Mash, All in the Family, The Jeffersons, Lucille Ball, The Odd Couple, Little House on the Prairie, Good Times, Dallas, The Brady Bunch, Love American Style, Taxi, WKRP in Cincinnati and the list goes on and on. You don't fnd TV like that today, especially when it comes to late night TV. I am blessed to have been born in the 60's so I could watch all these shows during my youth and right up into adulthood. I still watch them today on MeTV and UA-cam. My favorite show was Rockford files.

    Saw Bob do his stand up show in MPLS about 7 years ago- Maybe it was the Geritol but even in his mid 80’s his timing was precise and he absolutely killed it that night. His dry deadpan humor is timeless- a true legend!

This one is a real killer to watch in 2024 with Mr. Carlin showing up in a dress, earrings, purse, etc. and the reactions of the group, Bob and the new psychologist. I miss that show and I miss those days.

And Walter Cronkite, back when you could watch news, not just constant opinion, slanted far one way or another. Anyone else feeling like yelling to these long ago people “Go back! The future sucks! “

    When Mr. Carlin enters in that dress, you can hear Mary Tyler Moore show co-creator James L. Brooks laughing in the audience; it's that slow "Haaaa haaaaaa haaaaaa". His distinctive laugh could also be heard in episodes of Mary Tyler Moore, Rhoda, and later Taxi. I wonder if Brooks was actually present during this filming (considering The Bob Newhart Show was also an MTM production and filmed on the same lot as the aforementioned shows) or if the show is just lifting some laughter previously recorded to "sweeten" the audience reaction.
    At the end of that season, Maude and The Carol Burnett Show also concluded their runs. And while the series wasn’t ending, Sally Struthers and Rob Reiner left All in the Family.
