A little song, a little dance, a little seltzer
down your

Ah, those were the days.
And for the record, Rhoda was waaaaaay hotter.

Something about her is so interesting to me. She was breathtakingly beautiful on Dick Van Dyke Show but only ten years later when she was 35, she was just meh. I dont get it.

If you like women in tight slacks, thank Mary. She was the first woman on TV that routinely wore them.

Women lose their looks starting at 30. She also may have hastened the process with the typical hollywood diet of coke and booze, but even if she didn't, nature was going to do that to her, anyway.

He's right, but a woman who grows older gracefully can be as beautiful or more. But if a woman whose 35 tries to act and dress like's she's 25 or 20, its just going to be apparent.

Well, someone just needs to call Chris Hansen on you.
...unless you're referring to her in the spin-off Phyllis. She was legal by then, which means Aunt Mary and Aunt Rhoda should have introduced her to the sapphic sisterhood in a very special episode to be aired only in theaters.

DVD was a well written show, but Laura Petrie wasn't a fully drawn character. She pretty much began and ended at "cute." Mary Richards was a much more developed character. I suppose Laura seems sexier because that was the axis of her entire character.

I watched the "Chuckles Bites the Dust" episode a while back online. I'd forgotten how freakin' hiliarious it was. Gotta love the internet.
It's too bad that she didn't allow herself to age gracefully and is the poster child for over-aggressive plastic surgery.

You really are a tool, aren't you? She's had diabetes since she was a kid. And only someone with brain damage woould expect someone to look in their 20's their entire life.

The Mary Tyler Moore/Eon Flux mindworm is now burrowing into your head. Through the scalp, past the skull, and into your brain, where it will curl up around your cerebral cortex and remain there forever.

If you could be into making even a lick of sense, that'd be great. But my guess is that you really are as stupid as you've shown in this thread, so we've already seen the best of you we're going to see.
Congrats on being a retard!!

You made general statement that women begin to lose their looks after age 30. Perhaps it is a matter of taste, but I not only disagree with your statement on a personal level, but also think it is factually dead wrong. How, pray tell, does that make me a 'retard?'
Once you grow up, you are going to have a miserable adulthood if you think women begin to become less attractive after 30.

She may have hastened the process with daily insulin in the days before diabetics diagnosed at 20 routinely lived to 50 without losing their feet (if they were lucky).
Her making it to 75 is a staggering win against Juvenile Diabetes and a demonstration of how far we've gone in improving treatment.
Plus she's a magnificent entertainer and a wonderfully gifted comic actress.

It makes you a retard when you think that somebody who think women look better in their 30s and older than in their 20s must be gay, just because you yourself are a grandma chaser. Get it?
But if the thought of changing Mary Tyler Moore's diapers turns you on, bully for you.

Sheesh, lighten up, Francis. All I am saying is there are plenty of women in their 30s and 40s who look just as good or better than they did when they were younger. But if I follow the logic of your statement - if I find a 32 year old woman attractive, I am a grandma chaser?

there is not one (not ONE) gorgeous woman alive that looks better at 40 than she did at 25, granted that she was in shape and gorgeous at 25. I defy you to find me one.
there are some that look about as good (Kate Beckinsale, for one, she looks about as good, but that is also granting tons of make-up and possibly surgery) but there simply aren't many.
and most simply don't measure up to their younger selves. I am not saying that older women are not attractive. i am saying that you can. not. beat. youth.
youth wins. that is why plastic surgery\magic creams are a multibillion dollar a week business.

Actually Mary's one of the original cougars--her husband's 17 years younger than her and they've been married close to thirty years.
