    Thank you. I totally agree that this was totally ridiculous reasoning by the executives not to at least have a Dick Van Dyke cameo on the Mary Tyler Moore show, as if the audience doesn’t have any common sense whatsoever to understand that it’s just a guest appearance. Yet, they kept making their zany episodes with ridiculous plots and expected us to keep watching.

    I was never a huge fan of the show as I was not the target demographic (male, late teens) as this was definitely aimed at a tennie female audience. I did catch a few episodes before it left the air, and a recurring character playing a handyman of sorts, George “Lefty Egomaniac ” Clooney made his debut, it was all downhill from there,

    Lear was a notorious idea thief. That's why a lot of his hit show credits read "Developed by," and not "Created by." I guess "Developed" is the nice way of saying 'Stolen.'

    MASH is one of my favorite shows. One episode had their families meeting stateside. Hot Lips was a career Army member. Klinger was a draftee who tried various schemes to get a Section 8. He actually wore dresses on the show more than she did. Their characters did have some good moments together. One time Klinger drove Margaret. It was her birthday. Things didn't go well. Another time she and some others didn't believe Klinger was ill. He pointed out that none of his schemes never interfered with their work of saving lives.

    I have heard for decades that betty white was very much like her character Sue Ann Nivens, on the MTM show. in real life.

    I love Betty White, but to stay "in demand" in showbizz, being nice is not enough. You need to be tough and savvy because there's a lot of rejection and scheming going on. So, I think the private Betty White was a lot tougher than her public persona.
