    Hats off to the incredible talent of Vicki Lawrence !.... Her transformation into the character of Mama is nothing short of amazing . She was so very young, just a teenager when she was hired to be on the `Carol Burnett Show`... I remember hearing Carol Burnett say in an interview that they did nothing to Vicki except put her in a gray wig and some padding under her old lady dress and gave her some glasses and she became mama...... She really made you believe she was a old cranky lady . Also she was so very versatile that she could play any character so well. I wish she could be honored with some type of prestigious award or big tribute while she`s still here. She deserves it !

      I read Vicki was valedictorian and well accomplished all through school. Touring with The Young Ameficans must have been a thrill. To me, Vicki Lawrence would have great success in everything she set out to do.

I personally, minus his preference, know quite a few families here in the South that are very much like his unreliable narrator characters and the Harper family, sadly. Knowing on any level that The Family were inspired by real people still is quite sad.
