    ... but at least with good reason. She's got a reunion with the cast of The Mary Tyler Moore Show. The show was a little before my time, but I've caught enough of it in syndication to be a fan. Show's on right now, locally in Cincy. Check your local listings.

    (As I was writing that, they just did a montage of the best of the late, great Ted Knight. Damned funny stuff.)

    a homage to one of the truly great and groundbreakintg sitcoms of all time. in spite of the reunion occurring on "oprah." the "mtm show" was a tremendous ensemble.

    when i worked the lobster shift at the daily news in the late '70s/early '80s, we'd watch reruns at 2 a.m. ah, good memories.

    what a stunner! "oprah" sucked!! too many guests not enuf time, especially since so much time was wasted by "oprah" and staff jerking itself off to how they re-created the sets.

    hardly any of the former actors on the shos had a chance to say diddly. "inside the actor's studio" would do it a thousand times better. ;) ;) ;)

    shame on me for thinking not even "oprah" could eff this up. she sure did.

    It's a painful lesson you've learned, Shockey.

    But one you will never forget.

    Reunions from non-kid shows are depressing because you just see how ancient everyone is now.

    BTW, Oprah is totally full of shit but they did an incredible job building those sets to match the detail of the originals.

    woulda been better without the sets and just concentrating on the actors. 8)

    lesson learned, indeed, byh. ;)

    We're still here for you, Shockey.
