R27- Something about her reminds of the character Mildred BOOM BOOM Turner on an episode of All In The Family and or also the character of Mary Jo Loomis the Southern belle the same actress played on another episode of All In The Family- she was such a good actress the woman who played both characters on the show.

R29- That was theatre actress Gloria LeRoy. She was cast in the original Broadway production of "Hello, Dolly", but I think her role was cut out of town. She was quite good in both those parts, especially as Mary Jo Loomis in the scene where Edith confronts her about "coming on" to Archie.

Her brother was Broadway dancer and Jerome Robbins' fave Ken LeRoy. He was the original Bernardo in WSS, and was also in the original Fiddler and several other musicals.

R28- I know there have been several whispers (mostly on DL) regarding John Ritter being in the closet, but do you have anything more than just speculation to back up this claim? I mean, I agree I was absolutely sure he was gay the first time I watched him on "The Waltons", and was totally shocked when I found out he was married. He was so unconvincing as the womanizing stud on TC. He had gayvoice you could detect from Mars.

R12-WTF? Norman Fell was gay? Did you just pull that out of your ass?

While hardly one of my favorites, I did watch TC every once in a while. I did find the homophobic put downs extremely offensive, but I must say that I thought Suzanne was terrific as Chrissy. She managed to bring some life to an otherwise silly and predictable show. I also enjoyed Audra Lindley, and to a lesser extent Norman Fell, and found Don Knott's extremely annoying as Mr. Furley. I stopped watching altogether after Suzanne left.

In hindsight, I think both Suzanne and her husband realized they made a dreadful mistake in asking for such a large raise. I think she wanted the same salary as Carroll O'Connor was making, and a piece of the show? The mistake was Suzanne having her husband negotiate. ABC obviously didn't take him seriously enough to negotiate.

But in the words of DL "fave" Barbara Bush, it ended up working out quite well for them (financially anyway).

Watching interviews with her in the wake of her death, Suzanne was really very likable, and I can see why she was able to carve out a career in showbiz and then later on in sales. She just seems like a down to earth, friendly woman. Obviously she lied a lot, but I can see why many people believed her.
