    I know that one. Rosebud. And the episode was a classic.

    Role I first remember her by. In fact, I'm 43 and that's the first thing I remember seeing her in. She wasn't much of a presence in my generation, but she was big obviously to people who were about a decade older than me.

    After all those fine comedic turns, it was so jarring to see her do a 180 with "Ordinary People." Masterful character study.

    She will be missed.

    It was a combo of a bunch of names the family argued about, like Robert, Oscar, Samuel, Edgar, Benjamin, Ulysses and David, although I may not have all of those correct.

    (And how I can remember those and barely remember my wife's middle name is baffling)

    Years ago, she shot a movie (I think made for TV) in the old Richmond Newspapers building. Was there a couple of weeks if I recall, not sure what we got out of the deal beyond areas of the building we couldn't get into for a while. I saw her in passing once during that time. She had a rep of being a bit difficult but I have no idea if that's valid.

    I can still remember Rob pulling out the blackboard with the ROSEBUD down the side.

    She was seen more than once, though.
    Two different actresses played her.

    MTM, I'm so glad to see you in this thread. I was worried ...

    Sexy before you could even say that word on TV.
