    Mom of Ben Stiller. Husband of Jerry Stiller, with whom she had a successful comedy team in the 1960s, and she made a number of guest TV shots and game-show appearances when I was a kid, and also had a regular role when "All in the Family" became "Archie Bunker's Place."

    Can't remember anything she ever did that I didn't think she was damn good.

    RIP to a fine comedic actress and condolences to Jerry and Ben Stiller.

    She was one funny lady on the small screen; thanks for the laughs.

    I think I first remember her from All in the Family and ALF.

    I think she played Patton Oswalt's mom on King of Queens.

    Obviously not her biggest roles.

    Her dramatic turn in Fame blew me away.
