Think about this. There was Mary Tyler Moore as the 'star' and the continuing supporting cast included Ed Asner, Gavin MacLeod, Ted Knight, Cloris Leachman, Valerie Harper, and the late addition of Betty White. And every one of those SIX supporting characters went on to headline or equal co-star in a future TV series each of which lasted at least 2 years, usually more. Name me one other show that had such a large AND strong supporting cast that were considered able to carry their own shows...and did! Yes MASH, Seinfeld and Friends were all great comedies, but none had as many successful spin-offs, or that kind of supporting cast on their own to accomplish such a feat. (spin-offs: Asner -Lou Grant (5 years), Harper-Rhoda(4+ years), Leachman-Phyllis (2 years); non spin-offs: MacLeod-Love Boat (10 years), White-Golden Girls (7 years)& Hot in Cleveland(5 years), Knight-Too Close for Comfort (3 years)). Not only were they all talented, but the MTM production staff was able to find them and make excellent use of all of them

Wouldn't call Friends a great comedy, it's so overrated. But, the only other shows that I can think of that had a supporting cast so strong that they went on to carry their own shows that at least went 2 years or more were The Steve Harvey Show and Taxi which even had a few that went beyond television and would become movie stars like Danny Devito and Christopher Lloyd.

@@nadi1010 Well, actually Andy Griffith was one of the first to do it with his show in the 60's, but yes; Mary, Andy, Jerry Seinfeld and a few others were so unique as leads with their own shows and names as the title that were perfectly happy to play straight to everyone else and it payed off spectacularly for all of them. Heck, Jerry co wrote for the show for a lot of episodes and in the first one he wrote a producer told him "You know, Jerry the show is called Seinfeld, you can put yourself in it." Lol! He so enjoyed writing for his co stars that he completely forgot to give himself any lines. Since when does that happen?

Media and entertainment have always catered to the most likely to be offended, while the rest of us just kind of had to take it, and get our laughs where we could from watered-down entertainment. Looking back, one always yearns for good old days that didn't exist. The painful thing about the current days is mainly due to people having a voice to say "You're a repressed asshole," because we are no longer dominated by 3 t.v. networks and a handful of newspapers and magazines.

@@harrymills2770 I have to agree. Media censorship actually started by a Reverend from Missouri Donald Wildmon who formed the American Family Association which still exists today. Back in those days it was the religious right, but I am alarmed to see the left adopting cancel culture. The American Family Association boycotted Sears endorsement of All In The Family, Charlie's Angels, and Three's Company and tried to get ABC to take them off the air. They succeeded with Sears pulling sponsorship. They tried the same thing with Married With Children. They felt that more religious programming should be on television, so they lobbied Reagan's FCC to repeal the Fairness Doctrine which gave to the rise of televangelists in the 80's. Ownership deregulation and the media monopoly has made the problem much worse, because now instead of independent affiliates you have one corporation that control the entire network. That was Bill Clinton who lifted ownership rules and allowed cable companies to buy up our over the air networks. I'm making a documentary about this. It's really fascinating stuff.

My favorites of these bloopers are: when Lou dumped the drink on his former girl friend, when Sue Ann got the seat on top of the cake, and the group hug!

Pat Hough One of my favorite scenes is when Johnny Carson made an appearance, the lights are out, and Johnny says "Mary, your dog is licking me", then you hear Sue Ann's throaty laugh.

I remember when my father,who was in TV and local radio news, sat in his wingback chair watching this show and screaming in laughter at pitches far higher in pitch than what seemed humanly possible, as he watched the antics of Ted Knight's golden-voiced, silver tongued boob of an anchorman, and he'd remark liking "Lou Grant", but that he knew some people in real life who reminded him of "Ted Baxter." Hard to believe most if not all of that cast is gone now.

Ted Knight as a young actor, was working on a radio production of Abe Lincoln in Illinois starring Raymond Massy. During the scene where Lincoln was leaving on a train to go to Washington, all the crowd was saying their goodbyes and Ted called out “Goodbye Mr Massey”.

Watching these videos it occurs to me that every man on that set must have been love with Mary. She had it all! She was beautiful, had a world class smile, obviously a tremendous sense of humor and seemed to be very sweet. How could any guy not fall for her?

I remember the time Lou had to host a party at his house and asked Mary to come over and help him set everything up. Mary came over and found the place in a complete shambles and told Lou to get 6 or 7 glasses together to serve drinks while she tried to clean up the place. Lou came out of the kitchen with a jar of jelly and said he didn't think he could eat that much jelly as he was going to use the jelly jar as a glass LOL.

Gavin Macloed's daughters went to my school in the San Fernando Valley in Middle School during the late 70s.. They were very sweet and occasionally I'd see Gavin's brown Rolls Royce in our parking lot when we had a choir performance, which we were all in. In the late 80s, as a young actor, I appeared on the last episode of Valeries Family with Valerie Harper, of Rhoda fame. It was very cool being on shows that I watched and loved as a kid!

For that birthday cake scene, I'm sure Gavin was strictly told to get it right on the first take because there was probably only one cake and they would run into overtime if Betty had to change clothes and the crew had to clean up the set.

Mary Tyler Moore - the queen of television! She was on two of the greatest (and most beloved) sitcoms in TV history. First, The Dick Van Dyke Show and later, the star of The Mary Tyler Moore Show (the greatest sitcom of all time IMHO). And she was so gorgeous and lovable!
@maestroclassico58012 жыл бұрын
The story goes that they originally wanted Mary to be a divorcee not just a broken engagement....but CBS was legitimately concerned that viewers would think that she left Rob Petrie.
