What is your favorite classic television show?
I was watching it this afternoon - THE MARY TYLER MOORE SHOW.
I realized I still had one disc to go in the Season 3 boxed set, and I watched almost every episode on that disc this afternoon.
Among the classics:
Robert Moore playing Phyllis' brother who starts dating RHoda rather than Mary. Phyllis freaks out thinking she and Rhoda might become sisters-in-law. Rhoda assures her it won't happen; Phyllis' brother is gay.
Mary having a week from hell where everything goes wrong, the very week she must attend the broadcast for the Teddy Awards because she's nominated. No wonder Mary TYler Moore won the Emmy this season for Best Comedy Actress. I wonder if this was the submitted episode. Her performance is among the best, most realistic ever given on a comedy series.
Mary loans Rhoda $1,300 to open a plant boutique, and despite it making bucket loads of money, Rhoda stalls about
paying Mary back the loan.
