Full Larry King Interview: Mary Tyler Moore

[@badwater]

Magnificent interview! Mary was fearless and honest and unguarded in talking about anything he threw at her. I loved MTM. Rest in peace, beautiful, brilliant lady.

InstaBlaster...

[@Matthew-vp9rh]

She was literally asked easy questions lol.

[@pamelamays4186]

Larry King was one of the best interviewers ever.🎙️

[@mallurypollard7815]

Meh. He asked about adoption as if he wasn’t aware about her son dying. He misunderstood the full context of her saying ”I don’t have any kids.”

[@katzolitamason6729]

I love Mary Tyler Moore- so talented, super honest, intelligent, classy, sometimes childlike (which is nice), and funny. She is a performer through and through. Brilliant.

[@davmar5648]

total class... what an intelligent lady... very astute..

[@ladybirdadams1038]

I will miss her smile. She was a wonderful actress.

[@sameera3469]

MTM went thru so much pain in her life. RIP MTM.

[@scorpioguy3234]

Thank You Mary Tyler Moore for all the laughs!! R.I.P. Mary😘❤️❤️

[@Buffalo1622]

She was so classy, well spoken and intelligent. A true icon! 🙏❤️

[@robertcringle4865]

In 1974 I fell forever in love with Mary. I was eight. RIP Mary

[@georgimihailov4906]

We adore you, Ms. Moore. She was such a talented lady. She will never be forgotten.

[@InFltSvc]

Boy! She was my mom 100%. My mom is still with us and she was MTM to the T. When I watch the shows , everything from the fashions to the actual story line was the 70’s for sure. These were great times when America was still together. Thankfully we have it on tape

[@suzannebear4194]

Just flat out the best. We were lucky to have had her as long as we did.

[@texan903]

She only stayed around for 80 years. Most of her co-stars who were older than her, survived her, some of whom are still alive.

[@guyinnyc1]

As always she is so well spoken! And what a difference this interview is with the much more guarded, subdued Mary that came across in Barbara Walters interview from a dozen or so years earlier. She was repressing so much back then whereas here she's really comfortable with herself, and self accepting which makes her even more endearing. She was one of a kind.

[@louisgonzalez8846]

Probably because Barbara was interviewing her, with all the wrong questions to ask. !!!!

[@melodymusik261]

She is very articulate. And she touched more lives than she could ever know. R.I.P.

[@AlanJobe]

I've been in love with her since i was 11 years old. I just love it when I see an interview with one of her co-workers and they say she is a wonderful person. You dream of being in the presence of someone like her. It's a cliche but she really did turn my world on with her smile. I loved her.

[@sameera3469]

Why is it such a big deal when a woman marries a young man. Its acceptable for a man to marry a woman 20 yrs younger.

[@frederickrapp5396]

Sameera A younger woman will marry an older man if he has money. And a younger man will marry an older woman if she serves as his mentor, that is, she shows him the ropes.

[@brvndxxxn]

It’s acceptable

[@acousticguitarfan55]

Mary Tyler Moore....what class! RIP...

[@1trschaefer78]

She was such a gem. Great interview.

[@jspud10]

In 2021, love the fashions in the original MTM show.

[@Swampzoid]

She was so open and honest about herself. No Hollywood pretense at all.

[@vinnyvincent2862]

Larry discussing marriage is hilarious ! Considering he was on his 8th marriage when he passed 😢

[@RightAsAlways5759]

One of my All-Time Favorites ❤️

[@andreewert1925]

a big role model for me..I loved her Optimism, her Fragility, her Decency

[@AlexandraRieloff]

Larry King! don't interrupt!! Don't project!. Listen, to her, not yourself. "Isn't it painful?" ...really? Mary Tyler Moore, was a talented courageous person. His questions are shallow and inappropriate!

[@proudtobeautistic]

The world lost a true gem of a human being on 1/25/17 RIP Mary Tyler Moore.

[@IlovethesIlovethes]

I love her and always so pretty

[@TheRoyalBavarian]

I hope Mary was always smiling because she knew we loved her. We never tried to hide it.

[@jackiehusein6267]

"After All" I gotta own that amazing book!! Amazing Mary!!! Amazing, amazing, amazing!!!!

[@freshbeanne]

I love her so very much ❤

[@geetagill5920]

I like her! 😊

[@lenwelch2195]

Intelligent, full of heart, and as Laura and Mary Richard’s we all fell in love with her. Thank god

She's soo interesting, I want to read her book now Luv Mary

How can you not love Mary Tyler Moore?

[@selwynmiller3282]

Nice interview!

[@pamhoward5102]

Mary Tyler Moore, Was a great person. It very sad her son who died so young. It said her Mary Tyler Moore show was only real experience. That happened in 1977. She was great in the movie Ordinary People. She was so mean to her son who try kill himself . He loved her so much she couldn't touch him.

[@ferraridinoman]

Comes across as a nice lady RIP xx

[@reginamaraist3340]

MY TWO VERY FAVORITE WOMEN ENTERTAINERS WERE MARY TYLER MOORE AND BETTY WHITE. BOTH ARE SORELY MISSED, BUT FORTUNATELY WE HAVE THEIR SITCOMS ON YOU TUBE. TO REMEMBER THEM.

[@SandySaunders9142]

Larry is a lousy interviewer. I never understood how he managed to have such a successful show. Here he manages to not interrupt as frequently or ask as many ridiculous questions as he usually did.

[@AlexandraRieloff]

I completely agree! I can't get through it.

[@marbury2403]

He really was bad at it. I think most of his guests liked the fact he didn't throw hard and difficult questions their way.

[@GenXevolution]

He let MTM speak here without interrupting because they were good friends in real life.

[@monichat]

I admired Larry King, found him very interesting. And cute !

[@thomasmagnum3588]

I remember reading “After All” and loving it. She had quite the amazing life, full of triumphs and tragedies. Larry King did his usual mediocre interview here, sometimes interrupting at the most inappropriate times.

[@shelteredsparrow2736]

I write humor. I am so impressed with the quality of humor. They also saw that you don’t have tell a dirty joke to get a laugh

[@shihlin1]

I do sense deep inside she's a shy, reserved person. But wow, how she's impacted not just single women, but hordes of loyal fans like me who will finish watching the entire episode collection from her seven-year run. The earlier Dick Van Dyke shows don't interest me much. I believe her legacy is her groundbreaking show from 1970-77. People don't realize it now, but there were so many taboos and rules broken with that show. Mary really turned the world on with her smile😊😊

[@CycloneJack]

The Dick Van Dyke show allowed her the opportunity to earn the fame and the ability to make her own show. It is very much part of her legacy.

[@mandeljay]

It has been over 4 & 1/2 years since Mary Tyler Moore passed. (since then, every other cast member of the MTM show except for Betty White has died) Now, to the interview…Larry King is fair at best as an interviewer, and Miss Moore looked fairly well for 60. (though remember, she had had face work when she was 41) When I was younger, I loved Mary in her eponymous TV show. (and remember crying with some 20 others in the TV room at my alma mater in ‘77 when we watched “The Last Show”) But, Mary is an actress and the camera (in an interview) does not lie. She came across as guarded and a bit cold. (it wouldn’t be a stretch to say I place her in the same category of not nice individuals as Lucille Ball and Jerry Lewis) As far as her late son, Richie Meeker is concerned, I read her book and it wasn’t just her being driven in her career that she should have corrected. She even missed her son’s high school graduation because of the filming schedule of her show. (as a father, if I were her, you film the ceremony, and have a party, afterwards on the weekend) “You reap what you sow.”

[@reginarodriguez-martin4928]

Yes, every cast member of MTM has died except for Betty White, unless you include Bess, Lisa Gerritson. She’s still living, fortunately.

[@musicfanhawk4523]

I believe Mary suffered every day after her son died. I think she was much different than you compare to Lucille Ball. Mary was kind under it all but very driven and in control.

[@musicfanhawk4523]

[@cookie5335]

Larry is soo bad in this interview. She just gets into it and he cuts her off. It's soo disappointing gto listen too , she had soo much to impart

[@garydubois5539]

Its Soo sad. I loved "The Mary Tyler Moore" when I was growing up but I had the extremely unpleasant experience of waiting on her at a restaurant I worked years ago in upstate New York. I have been a server for almost 40 years and have waited on several celebrities and she the rudest nastiest person I have ever come across.

[@GlennaVan]

When was it as related to her son's death? Or her brother's death? Grief definitely affects people.

[@garydubois5539]

@@GlennaVan it was many years after her son's death. It was in the 90's. that I waited on her. I've waited on many celebrities thru the years and Mary Tyler Moore and Jerry Lewis were the worst.

[@GlennaVan]

@@garydubois5539 I'm sorry to hear that and hope it was a single incident. I can see, based on her performances, where she could come across as being curt. Comparing her to Jerry Lewis, however, is horrible based on what I learned about him. I have two friends who had very close contact with him for extended periods, neither of whom had anything kind to say about him - one was related to how he treated his own children and the other was how he behaved behind the scenes on the sets. My husband liked him while I could not stand him *before* I had first-person stories about him.

[@joniheisenberg6691]

@@garydubois5539 What did she do that was so awful ?

[@garydubois5539]

@@joniheisenberg6691 she was with a party of about 8 people (friends and family) I was working at a restaurant in Millbrook NY near her horse farm. The party was originally sitting on the patio but were moved into my station because the bees were bothering them. Anyway I overheard her say to one of her guests that she liked the food here but the service wasn't very good. I have been a server for almost 40 years and I've been told I'm a good waiter. However I am not the kind of waiter who tries to remember an order without writing it down especially large parties and as I was clearing the entree plates Ms. Moore started calling out the coffee order for the whole table i.e. she'll have an espresso, my husband will have a half decaf latte with extrea foam etc.. I said please give me a moment to clear the table I would be happy to get their coffee order. We'll miss America can turn the world on with her smile have me a look that could have withered Napoleon. She decided to test me in front of her guests and I failed so she was able to prove her point. Hope that made her feel good. My impression watching her was she was much more like the character she played in Ordinary People than Mary Richards. And I'm not just talking about the way she treated me. She was pretentious and snotty. Merly Streep, Joan Rivers and Jane Curtain were warm friendly approachable and pleasant when I waited on them. MTM sent a cold shiver down my spine from the moment she walked into the restaurant. I still like her TV show because some very talented people are necessarily the nicest human beings. My favorite classical composer is Beethoven and most accounts say he was an asshole. LOL

[@jacksmith5692]

Diabetes and drinking aged her badly. She was so beautiful up to her 40's.

[@katg7965]

She aged pretty damn good if you ask me, at any age.

[@PattyBlock]

I think your judgment is wrong. Just imagine Mary wearing a wig that resembles how she looked on MTM or TDvDS. Hair is a huge influence on people's perceptions of beauty - or not.

[@biancahotca3244]

why did she have so much plastic surgery? it made her face look fake.

[@Anna-hj6oo]

Bianca Hotca I'm a newbee in this TRUTH called "transinvestigation," but from everything I've learned on KZbin & Google MalesToFemales ALL have tons of plastic surgery as they get older for at least 2 reasons that I know of: 1) The female hormones that they've taken for decades & decades wreak havoc on their bodies & age them rapidly; 2) Despite the hormones, as MTFs age, the MALE comes out STRONG. Case in point: ALL ALL - yes, ALL "WOMEN" CELEBRITIES ARE MEN!!! If you follow their careers before the camera, you'll notice they ALL HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE! That said - none of the expert Truther Transinvestigators have done MTM that I could find...but there is a video re: her membership in "the Illuminati" which is Satan/Baphomet worship. These "elite" i.e., "freemasons" worship androgeny (like Satan), hail mysogeny, & consider 2 genders in 1 body reverence for their godSatan: substituting/exchanging THIS abomination for the Salvific Blood of Jeshua of Nazareth. Search out the TRUTH right here on KZbin - though MANYMANY Channels are shut down over & over by the KZbin Gatekeepers for revealing these "secrets." Long answer, but you deserve to know the TRUTH, sister!
