    She was also one helluva 6. This episode was just recently on.

    Damn, damn, damn. 2017 isn't starting any better than 2016 ended.

    Along with her comedy success, thought she was terrific (though not very likable) in a dramatic role as the mom in Ordinary People.

    That cast has some longevity, Asner, Gavin McLeod, Cloris Leachman, Valerie Harper and, of course, Betty White, all still around.

    RIP namesake.

    I bet 2018 will have celebrity deaths as well.

    Dick Van Dyke still kicking at 91. That was another great show. I loved it when Morey Amsterdam would get on Mel's ass.
    Morey Amsterdam's wife in the show (not sure we ever saw her) was named??? AND NO GOOGLING!!

    Sundance TV, or what ever it is called, airs several episodes back-to-back one morning every week. I enjoyed the program when I was a kid and have enjoyed watching reruns lately. Wish my satellite provider had MeTV. My understanding is The Fugitive runs (pun intended) there. As it is, RIP to a lady who seemed to be a classy dame.

    Ted Knight left us a little too early, but agree, that's a strong run.

    MTM was also a heavy smoker for a long while.

    Can't remember, but I also loved Rose Marie as the always-trying-to-snare-a-man Sally Rogers.

    The genius of that show was making Rob a comedy writer so they had an excuse to tell jokes and do sketches for no reason at all.

    Richie's middle name on that show is another good trivia question (they did an episode about it)

    Pickles.

    DVD is probably my second favorite comedy of all-time after "Get Smart"
