Mandy Moore is not Mary Tyler Moore’s daughter, but I think she was Dudley Moore’s child bride before he died in 2002 – RIP DUDLEY…you’ll always be WILLY WONKA TO ME….. Point being a bunch of perverts were into Mandy Moore when she was a pop star many years ago. I never got the appeal. I just couldn’t get into her. She was just boring… And as it turns out, 15 years later, she’s still boring…even when she’s trying to be attention seeking, compelling, and using her tits for attention…it’s dull. That must be a sad feeling to feel when you are a woman with tits, and you still manage to be dull when showing your tits, even if you’re rich as fuck, have a pile of money, fame and fans to encourage you….it’s still fucking dull. I don’t know why these people don’t just do anything insane anymore, like where’s the crazy, where’s the meltdowns, give us something to work with, anything to work with…just a shameless titty shot, in a slutty selfie pose that she probably thinks is edgy…is not It’s the porn generation. Try harder.
Mary Tyler Moore, the beloved veteran actress who influenced a generation of female comedians via her iconic role on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, passed away today in a Connecticut hospital. She was 80 years old. The legendary star was admitted to the hospital this week following a lengthy battle with Diabetes. She also underwent brain surgery in 2011 and has struggled with a number of healthy problems in recent years. In 2014, friends said Moore was suffering from heart and kidney problems and was on the verge of going blind. Hence why she had not been spotted out in public very often. According to TMZ, Moore was on a respirator for over week prior to her passing. Her rep, Mara Buxbaum, issued a statement to TMZ that confirmed this tragic news: “Today, beloved icon, Mary Tyler Moore, passed away at the age of 80 in the company of friends and her loving husband of over 33 years, Dr. S. Robert Levine. She called Moore “a groundbreaking actress, producer, and passionate advocate for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.” All in all, “Mary will be remembered as a fearless visionary who turned the world on with her smile.” Few women have left as indelible a mark on the entertainment industry as Moore. She rose to fame as the character of Laura Petrie, a wife and mother on The Dick Van Dyke Show, which ran from 1961 through 1966. In 1970, she signed on to portray Mary Richards, a news producer in Minneapolis on The Mary Tyler Moore Show. It ran for seven seasons and is considered one of the funniest, most respected and appreciated sitcoms in TV history. Over the course of its unparalleled run, The Mary Tyler Moore Show won 29 Emmys, a total that has only been surpassed by Saturday Night Live, Frasier and Game of Thrones. Here is a look at Moore and other members of the cast from the mid-70s: On the big screen, Moore was best known for two movies: 1967’s Thoroughly Modern Millie. 1980’s Ordinary People, for which she was nominated for Best Actress at the Academy Awards. Moore’s most recent television credits included three episodes of That 70s Show in 2005 and an appearance on Hot in Cleveland in 2013. In May 2011, Moore underwent elective brain surgery to remove a benign meningioma. She was also a self-confessed alcoholic, detailing this personal struggle in a pair of memoirs. A long-time animal rights activist, Moore worked over the years with Farm Sanctuary to raise awareness about the process involved in factory farming. She was dedicated to the compassionate treatment of farm animals and was the co-founder of Broadway Barks, an annual animal adopt-a-thon held in New York City. Married three times, Moore suffered a personal tragedy in 1980. That year, her only child, 24-year old son Richard, died from a self-inflicted shotgun wound after playing with the weapon at home. But it was Moore’s contribution to the world of comedy that will live on forever, in the hearts and minds of so many fans, friends and colleagues. She will forever be on the short list of influential stars, anchoring a TV show as a woman during a time when actresses rarely received such an opportunity.

The shift toward happy-talk infotainment had been going on long enough that Brooks had satirized it in the 1970s on The Mary Tyler Moore Show , but the battle against what Holly Hunter’s character calls “the historic influence of Entertainment Tonight ” had not been so roundly lost as it is now.
Have Yourself a Movie Little Christmas includes the best of the worst of holiday cinema, and this one certainly fits the bill: While on the campaign trail, politician Patrick Dalton (Dudley Moore) strikes up a friendship with young Nicole Dreyfus (Katherine Healy) and her mother Charlotte (Mary Tyler Moore), a wealthy cosmetics magnate.
