[@valentinr.dominguez2892]

Ahh, the 70s. How I miss them.

[@stephaniestanley8041]

It was quiet in beauty born

[@prabhukiranz]

Rest in Peace Ed and Valerie.. Thanks for everything Sally ED Valerie . All in the family and MTM show are true Gems in TV history.....!!!

[@johnlau5066]

What a great speech! Funny and heartfelt at the same time...

[@jayjaz1873]

One of the greatest shows in the history of television

[@rebeccahopkins9522]

They don’t make them like this anymore. What a class act, dryly humorous, genuine, heartfelt and thankful. He’s still alive and kicking, 90 yrs. old. RIP to the beautiful, kind, gracious and very talented Valerie Harper, who will forever be the ultimate best friend of single women everywhere, trying to “make it after all”. ❤️

[@jamessandy5873]

This is priceless TV history. Thank you so much for posting it. What a joy...

[@nancylong3933]

Always loved his smile and laugh. Beautiful man!!!!!

[@NYNYRaider]

Valerie Harper from 1971 to about 76 is still the most beautiful brunette I've ever seen...I certainly hope that when she leaves us it's peaceful and not painful for her.

[@jamessandy5873]

Four years later, and she’s still with us and in complete remission.

[@writeract2]

I more than 100% agree with you - I always felt this - she was absolutely beautiful - face, figure, inside and out.

[@MIKIEEYEZ1975]

This is August 2020 & sadly the beautiful Valerie left us last year August 30,2019. R.I.P. Beautiful Angel!!

[@NYNYRaider]

Michael Arbassio yes my post about her here was from 2013 😂

[@lynnzino3284]

In the late 80s early 90s I worked for a large corp in NYC and found out my adorable co worker Susan was THE Susan Silver one of the brilliant writers of the MTM show.

[@JenniferMcMullenMusic]

Quality, quality, quality...heart and warmth and intellect

[@writeract2]

AMEN! Well-put - exactly!

[@writeract2]

All lost arts today - w/ dumbing down and destruction of all that is good, true beautiful in life and society.

[@susanmeisner5450]

Two Class acts proud of them

[@princessjerseygirl04]

There are no actors today that have THIS

[@sanchezmindandmusicchannel690]

Dear princessjerseygirl04. The year is 2020. And... In our year, 2020... There are STILL no actors today that have "THAT". "THAT" is a gift. "THAT" has heart and soul. "THAT" shines with a gift that is BEYOND "Charisma". Sorry Princess... I'm sad to say we've lived long past the era where actors like "THESE" graced the screens. Be thankful we were lucky-enough to witness them. Be sorry in the fact our Grandchildren will never be able to tell the difference, anymore.

[@justwondering50]

Thank you very much for posting the clip.

[@SleepyBrownEyes1]

Aww...he's such a cutie.

[@liz326522]

Thanks for posting this. So great to see what it was like for the cast and crew of the MTM show to receive the praise and the recognition they most certainly deserved. I'm a huge fan of the MTM show, Ted Knight more specifically. I can't find any footage of his Best Supporting Actor Emmy wins from the years of 1973 and 1976. If anyone can point me in the right direction, that'd be great. Thanks again for the great post, this was awesome. Ed Ansner is a doll!

[@samuraiyao]

Mr. Ed Asner, still as relevant and funnier as ever. If you haven't seen him recently on the Tom Green show, it's one of the funniest interviews ever.

[@jeanmarcks2382]

Sally who? Was there a Sally on MTM?!

[@henryr4594]

Sally Struthers from All in the Family. She tied with Valerie for the Emmy.

[@mullen25]

valerie harper and cloris leachman had a beautiful friendship and i love seeing these acceptance speeches. ed asner was a treasure.

[@kendallrivers1119]

With Mary, Ed, Ted, Betty, Valerie and Cloris all winning Emmys all you needed was Gavin and Georgia to win and then MTM could've been on that short list of shows that the whole cast won Emmys along with All in The Family, The Golden Girls, and Will and Grace.

[@elchappie8883]

Rest in peace, my sincere condolences from Germany. Like many others, you will remain an unforgettable great actor.

[@justrelax1539]

I wish I was around in the 1970s! Award shows and sitcoms seemed to be more glamous and worth watching

[@michelebartlett3921]

I love them both

[@rhodesfamily2008]

Ted Knight representing beauty! Lmao!!!! Classic!

[@rgrndu]

A Rho He would agree 100%.

[@PavedParadise]

They certainly don't give enough time for speeches like that anymore

[@joejoewest]

FYI Sally Struthers won another Emmy for best supporting actress in 1979, this time she didn't have to share it with anyone.

[@americanitalianisrael4008]

No actor today have this Class. Good Manors.Clean Vocabulary.Decentcy. Very 😢. Oh wait there is one Classy Lady. The Great Glenn Close😀.

[@constantreader7944]

Why don't you add Sally's name to the title? She deserved it too. Brilliant performances, both of them.

[@tannawannavannabittannawan7138]

Valerie ❤️

[@susansilver3651]

u r welcome thanks for the mention luv you

[@enriquesanchez2001]

Ed Asner announced the sudden death of the fantastic actor Steven Inhat who had died in Cannes at the age of 37 from a heart attack. It was a lovely gesture on his part. ♥

[@rebeccahopkins9522]

Before there was GIRLS, before there was SEX IN THE CITY, before there was THE GOLDEN GIRLS, There was Mary and Rhoda❤️

[@Dan-nt2yb]

Wait a minute, Sally Struthers also won. Unkind to leave her out of the headline.

[@cynthcorcor126]

[@baroqueobama6199]

[@michelebartlett3921]

I loved him as Lou on the MTM Show but not so much as just plain Lou Grant

[@Jake4uinto]

Ted never won the Emmy for best supporting actor

[@jamessandy5873]

Ignorant, and all you had to do was use google.

[@cactaceous]

Yes he did. More than once too.
