Suzanne was in a lot of great old Disney movies, and on the long running Newhart TV show. She did a few more more movies too I think one with Elvis. I'm a huge fan!

[@johnallen2771]

Yeah, Suzanne Pleshette up live and in your face. What a great actress she was. I watched her all through her career and never saw anyone any better in screen tests and such.

[@northover]

I was having dinner in a restaurant with a gf in a small restaurant adjoined by a Holiday Inn In Thibodaux, LA in the early/mid eighties. The restaurant was almost empty and just a couple of tables over was Suzanne Pleshette eatIng with a companion. She was down there filming a movie. Her voice was unmistakeable as it got deeper as she grew older, no doubt from smoking. She was a beautiful woman, but we did not bother her or her dinner companion.

[@bootsnsaddle8289]

Suzanne Pleshette was dreamy beautiful. The tax guy was the doctor in “The Thing” the great 50’s sci FYI classic, playing the scientist willing to sacrifice everyone at the arctic research station to save the alien monster from destruction. Great show and Suzanne was such a natural actress.

[@TheViewmaster1971]

They were saying that the guy is the only person with THAT blood type within the LOCAL AREA. I can see how that could happen in a small town. AB- is the rarest blood type. Only .6% of the population has this AB- blood type. The thing is, someone with AB- blood can RECEIVE from OTHER blood types as well: AB-, A-, B-, and O-. This being a TV program, perhaps the blood type they are referring to is fictional...? You can donate blood platelets every 2 weeks. You can donate whole blood every 8 weeks. There are stipulations and regulations regarding these rules, but most people with normal health can donate at regular intervals. Most people, however do NOT donate which can cause some real issues for people in need. If you have O- blood type, you really need to donate as it is the "universal" blood type that most people can receive. It's what they use in hospital emergency rooms when they need to give someone blood quickly but they don't know their blood type. Super important to donate as only about 5% of the population donates even though about 95% of us will need blood or their components by the time we are 75 years old. www.donateblood.org

[@arx754]

mark: I'm O+. Decades ago, after donating a few times, I was told not to donate anymore because I was more trouble han my blood was worth. I passed out each time. And, once, I even stopped breathing. So, I stopped giving blood. Not angry or resentful because I could see their position easily. Thankfully, I'm not of a blood type that is needed. Even now, I have to mentally prepare myself when I have to have blood taken just for tests.

[@TheViewmaster1971]

Yes, I understand. My niece has the same issue with donating because of once having mononucleosis too. Makes it especially tough for you since it's such a rare blood type! Mono is certainly no fun to go through either. Thanks for responding!
