I just started binge watching MTM and now I’m almost finished watching Rhoda. It blows my mind there is a movie. It’s like finding hidden gems. Thanks for sharing.
Interesting take. I could never warm up to the Rhoda show. I found it unappealing and depressing. The MTM Show was my jam, a top favorite. Although I do agree with your point on the early seasons. For me, Seasons 2 and 3, best. Season 1, next best. Season 4 close to the excellence of the top three. Then Seasons 5-7, it is still the MTM Show that I love, but at a lower level of "good." I wonder why this happens with some shows. Do the original writers and directors leave and they hire new ones who don't care as much? Anyway, Seasons 1-3 had the Magic. Lightning in a bottle.
I understand why they decided not to involve other MTM cast members, as far as actually appearing in the movie, but I still think some references to some of the old story lines would have been nice. Like how Mary always gave bad parties or how Rhoda usually had bad taste in men. I just think it would have added to this movie. However I'm just glad they did this. It was nice to see them back together again and find out what happend in their later lives. Just my thoughts...
Absolutely! Mary didn't even ask Rhoda about her parents. If they were gone, how about Brenda? I guess she didn't keep in touch with Lou, Murray, Ted, Georgette, Sue Ann or Phyllis!
I concur, it seems very much a separate storyline. Really the beginning of this made me feel very sad and lonely. It just seems way too serious... but I'll watch the whole thing and see where it goes.
@@LarryLeeMoniz | "I guess she didn't keep in touch with Lou, Murray, Ted, Georgette, Sue Ann or Phyllis!" That would not be a surprise. I had been employed in a company where I befriended a few co-workers like Mary did. When the company closed permanently, its like everybody had died and vanished. I never seen any of them again. So Mary's case is a reflection of real-life.
@@LarryLeeMoniz GUessing Ted would have been having passed on since the actor had and it was a gross insult to not mention any of the rest. Also why not have Edward Asner and Cloris Leachman invloved???
Read a book by Sue Cameron who was a great friend of Valerie Harper’s as she reveals the REAL reason this movie didn’t become a series. According to her, MTM was an absolute MONSTER on the set and ABC said they would NEVER work with her in a series. She also said that MTM was horrid to VH, but VH always forgave her (also SC reveals the absolute mess backstage that was the “Hot in Cleveland” reunion show).
I was nervous about Joan Jett's version and it did make me restart the movie tonight by DVD and I wish they kept the original more BUT it's a movie so I understand why they did this and in a way it kind of works. Still prefer the original though.
There are several reasons I didn't care for this. I didn't like how they went from the ordinary people we knew, to the "larger -than-life" characters they became. I didn't buy Rhoda moving to Paris and marrying a guy named "Jean-Pierre". There was no mention of anyone else in their lives we used to know in either sitcom. There wasn't a hint of Rhoda's theme song. And to top it all off... That wasn't even close to Mary's "M" on the wall, and it was backwards.
This is a good movie but, like others have said, they should have made more references to other MTM characters and some of the old storylines. That would have made this movie even better.
I don't agree painted.....You gotta remember....This was NOT a LOOK BACK. It was about 2 beloved characters reunited......The characters of the show were a friendships that happened a long time ago but does not mean they are apart of on-going life of today
I agree a classier daughter should have bee cast for both of them Rhoda's accent is TOO extreme. As always Mary's acting is superb .Mary was always self sufficient....she would have been able to operate the heater .They could have drawn on the history of the characters more. They seem like different people. But then again, you can't go back.
It was supposed to have been made into series, but TPTB said no after the movie aired. A shame no other characters were mentioned. Cloris Leachman asked to be in the movie, but MTM (who wrote this movie) said no. A shame. It was never really made clear why it was not aired as a series, btw.
T James You can't go back. The series was TOPS. It would have been hard to live up to the history already there. Grant Tinker advised Mary not to do this movie. Mary ,reportedly told him to mind his own business.
ANC said MTM was so hard to work with that they’d never deal with her again - and they didn’t. She refused to pose for any pics with Valerie Harper, demanded that VW be paid less than she was (MTM caved when VH said she wouldn’t do the movie without equal pay), etc.
"...If I could, I would do that. Thanks for the suggestion." LOL! Thank you so much for uploading this movie. I'd forgotten all about it! I just saw a listing of it on Hallmark, so I thought I'd search for it. Success! :D
This was a slow and sadly made piece of writing. Clearly the writers didn’t have what was necessary. we could’ve had the same tears in the middle of well written comedy, like MTM or rhoda, instead of a dramedy that doesn’t work, with bad supporting characters. Was so disappointed that this reunion wasn’t put into better hands for them. These women’s are icons of television
Mary Tyler Moore was the straight man to wacky characters and situations. Rhoda was the same when she helmed her own show. The producers were trying to imply that the characters had moved on from their lives in the 1970s hence no other MTM characters. I get that and it could have worked if only Mary and Rhoda had any interesting new supporting characters. Their daughters were particularly boring.
Not Rhoda acting just like Ida! 😆 I'm glad they called it Mary and Rhoda because it was all about them getting back together. But "MTM Y2K" would have been a great subtitle. Mary having a hard time using her new digital thermostat, accepting her daughter's modern lifestyle, all those little but huge indicators of major changes in the world. I'm about the same age as Mary and Rhoda's daughters. It's an amazing age to be, really. We're middle aged now, but we lived our youth on both sides of y2k. We were the first generation to adapt to digital technologies in our youth, but we still have early childhood memories of the mostly pre- digital 70's and early 80's. Using house phones and adjusting the analogue TV knobs and using wire hangers to improve reception for broken antenna. We gen X-ers aren't technically "digital natives"- I think milenials were the first gen to be borne into a fully computerized world- but we were young enough to adjust pretty quickly to "new" technologies like digital watches and remote controls. I remember the switch between electric typwriters and computers. Foot pump sewing machines and electric ones. Those old metal units weighed like 50 pounds! They were built to take a lickin and keep on tickin. Now we've got planned obsolescence and a host of other problems that come from rapidly changing tech. It's all a fascinating thing to behold. I don't think things are as dystopian as they seem right now. Or maybe they are. But I have this crazy feeling humanity will somehow manage to survive our self-inflicted apocalypse and come out better for it in the end. Maybe hundreds of years from now. Maybe I'm just a die hard optimist underneath my realist perspective. I've been a pessimist, but that was too miserable. I'll settle for the balance of being a realist. Honestly, I'm not sure if I'm an optemist, a realist, or a pessimist in denial! "A pessemist is just a deeply dissapointed optimist." -George Carlin Well, anyway, it's nice that they did a Mary and Rhoda reunion. I never saw the movie until now.
OMG I freaking love you! I've tried to find this movie everywhere!!!! Thank you thanks you thank you times a 1934820174748201038558202039494757391020474848290 oh my gosh your amazing!!!!!!!
Two legends that played two of the most iconic roles in television history deserved so much better than this mediocre script, no wonder they decided not to turn this into a regular series it just wasn't up to par with what they did before in the 70s. Such a shame because the fans deserved better as did Mary and Valerie although Valerie Harper's warmth and raw talent did elevate this poorly conceived plot and script. Maybe it wasn't meant to be, Mary Tyler Moore's health issues were starting to become more noticeable at this point and I wonder if she would've had the strength and stamina to do a regular weekly series...
Yes because the stupid producers felt they had to "modernize" the theme song so young people in 2000 could relate to it. This is why MOST movies and television SUCK, because of stupid people becoming producers/directors/writers.
I wish this movie didn't have all this focus in it the shirt Mary's daughter wore her talking about her having a girlfriend seriously we all need to seek God and godliness
Plastic surgery changed Mary's beautiful face, but not her beautiful self. She was great. This movie, however sucks. I don't like the daughters thing, very dumb. Would have been nothing wrong with both having b/f's or being single. I guess being in NY was ok, but there should have been a studio audience with laughs, and filmed like a play rather than a movie. AND they should have included Phyllis, she added so much to the mix. Wish I could have written it , I'm pretty sure it would have been a memorable hit and maybe sold as a new show
"AND they should have included Phyllis, she added so much to the mix..." Phyllis, if I recall correctly, was living in San Francisco. Why would she move to New York? Just to reunite by incredible chance with Mary and Rhoda? Doesn't sound plausible.
I haven't started watching the show yet I was just so moved by the sight of the twin towers. I wonder if those of us who remember that day will ever see the New York skyline before 9/11 and not feel emotional.
@fanofbewitched1 Lol. You are sooo welcome! I wanted to watch it too, so I just bought it and I figured I should figure out how to upload it on here for everyone else (:. I might be a little while longer on the other parts though I still have to do some editing :D.
Just noticed that Mary Tyler Moore and Melissa Gilbert look alike. Thank you for sharing. Luv seeing Rhoda and Mary together again. 😊. I never knew about this movie when it was released in 2000.
Regardless of how anyone felt about _Mary and Rhoda,_ at least the movie answered the big questions after the show's final episode: Did Mary Richards ever got married? Yes. Did Mary ever had children? Yes, a daughter. Did Mary stay in Minnesota after she was fired at WJM? No, she moved to New York. Did she stay in the journalism field? Yes. I am sure for many years MTM had been asked by fans with these same questions about the character. I think this was part of the reason why she wanted the movie made. For us (the audience who had watched the show) to finally stop wondering.
I don't care what anyone says, I think Mary is HOT! Always was, always will! Love you Mary, wish the girls of Hollywood today could take a lesson from a true lady.
To AkiroXKE Mary was in her late 30's when the series was over. Who said there were no prospects. She was an attractive woman. Women DO meet and marry and have children in theory 40's! Haven't you heard?! Also. over a number of years time could have allowed this to happen. Grant Tinker here ex husband advised her not to do this movie. He may have had a point. You cannot go back and to me the characters were different and did not retain their former qualities. I still enjoyed watching though.
The first time I saw the opening to this movie I was DISGUSTED. Their aggressive tactic to "modernize" an old show with that God awful rock version of her old theme song....regrettably I did not change the channel, I stomached the rest of the movie. It had no real depth or meaning to it.
What happen to Mary's son Kenny, and at what point will they plot to murder and steal Irene Silverman's fortune. This takes place on New York so I'm assuming that Mary already knows Irene and waiting for her son to arrive. I wonder when Mary will turn psychotic, because she seems nice here, until she starts her conning spree with her son.
I loved the Mary Tyler Moore show. I was a child when it started in 1970 - and it made me want to work in an office when I grew up. These two women had such chemistry in that 1970’s comedy. Sadly MTM looks and sounds so weak and frail in this movie. Valerie Harper seemed much stronger, but sadly not Mary. It might have been from her type 1 diabetes or some other health issue. She was only in her 60’s when this was filmed. Too bad it wasn’t written and produced by the same high quality that the MTM show had. It doesn’t flow well, it wasn’t funny and it lacked a good script/writer. Rest In Peace you two lovely women who were role models… The entire main cast of MTM are all gone now. That kid who watched you in the 70’s grew up and works in an office ☺
The movie is damned ridiculous. When the show was cancelled, Mary's character was a 40-something spinster with no prospects. Now suddenly, viola, she's a widow with a grown daughter. "Katie Ford" probably watched 2 or 3 episodes max before writing this unfunny piece of trash.
The second “Sheila” was mentioned I shut off the movie. It was done in a gratuitous manner. If Mary has a son who was bisexual, the movie never would have been made.
Travis James yeah because they definitely weren’t /that/ progressive in 2002. You do know you’re commenting on a lesbian’s channel, right? Maybe hold your tongue next time. We don’t all need to share our thoughts and feelings every chance we get. Thanks.
masstransit2 Yes, I have heard that men only care what they are looking at and how it looks. They couldn't care less if they are real or not, so that explains that.
I'm using my fianace's account i just read that she is almost completely blind, that's so sad. I'm a diabetic too and get laser treatments for my eyes. if i didn't get them, I'd go blind too. i also have stage 4 kidney disease. thankfully, I'm not on dialysis or need transplants yet. thank the Lord i have been stable for the past few year. God bless.
Well......now they're together again (R.I.P. Valerie & Mary)
This blew me away. I'm an MTM fan going back to the start and I had never known of this.
Thought I would see at their age 63 and in 63rd country Fiji. RIP.
I was today years old I knew this existed
R.I.P.: Mary Tyler Moore, The First Lady of Minnesota!
I just started binge watching MTM and now I’m almost finished watching Rhoda. It blows my mind there is a movie. It’s like finding hidden gems. Thanks for sharing.
R.I.P.: Mary Tyler Moore and Valerie Harper.
May they spend the rest of their Eternity Together in Heaven.
i love that little thing she does with her shoulders and her head when she's being funny x
she kept the "M" on the wall🤣😍
R.I.P. Mary Tyler Moore ♥♥♥♥
American icon.
An American beauty also.
Thank you! I have been binge-watching MTM and Rhoda for the past 2 days.
Same here!
Well this is nothing like...
Rhoda was 10× better than MTM show...MTM was only good season 1/2 then it was done
Interesting take.
I could never warm up to the Rhoda show. I found it unappealing and depressing.
The MTM Show was my jam, a top favorite.
Although I do agree with your point on the early seasons.
For me,
Seasons 2 and 3, best.
Season 1, next best.
Season 4 close to the excellence of the top three.
Then Seasons 5-7, it is still the MTM Show that I love, but at a lower level of "good."
I wonder why this happens with some shows. Do the original writers and directors leave and they hire new ones who don't care as much?
Anyway, Seasons 1-3 had the Magic.
Lightning in a bottle.
What a fantastic idea to bring them together again 😊❤️😊❤️
I understand why they decided not to involve other MTM cast members, as far as actually appearing in the movie, but I still think some references to some of the old story lines would have been nice.

Oh god, the outfit Rose wears in her first scene. It is the pinnacle of Y2K fashion.
Rhoda turned into Ida, lol
Thank you for posting. I didn't know they did this movie.

This is a GREAT movie! Thanks a bunch for the upload!!! =)
I was okay with the movie until 0:19.

I disagree. They don’t work together anymore. 23 years had passed.
Cloris Leachman asked to make a cameo and was told no by MTM.

Thank you so much for uploading this movie. I'd forgotten all about it!
I just saw a listing of it on Hallmark, so I thought I'd search for it. Success! :D
that Haley from oth
Damn home girl took the towek racks AND the mirrors
There were also rumors that MTM was causing diva like behavior behind the scenes and ABC said “Nope.”
Ew...This is an embarrassment, they should have written something far better than this for this iconic pair...
This movie came onto ABC two days before my wife gave birth to our first child.
Bethany Joy Lenz!

I love this movie
While I would have liked some references to life at WJM it does reflect reality of time passing and people going their own ways.
love this movie
The bastardized theme song is simply painful.

at 2:48. Does anybody notice the "M" on the wall is backwards lmao
Only Canadians.

Oops, MTM didn't completely write the movie. My bad.
The song started off nice but then turned into something awful.
That was Joan Jett, I liked it.
I like the Joan Jett version
That was the point....it was to show how the world was so much BETTER back then.
No, it started off bland and turned into something AWESOME. Joan Jett and the Blackhearts for the WIN ( I was an eighties teen)
Yes because the stupid producers felt they had to "modernize" the theme song so young people in 2000 could relate to it. This is why MOST movies and television SUCK, because of stupid people becoming producers/directors/writers.
I wish this movie didn't have all this focus in it the shirt Mary's daughter wore her talking about her having a girlfriend seriously we all need to seek God and godliness

It’s ridiculously difficult for me to see them, even today... I still can’t believe they came down like that.
This was made the year before the towers came down. An eerily coincidental addition to this final glimpse of pre-millenial life.

+Brooke Hanley I'm using my fiance's account and my bio mother was 47 when I was born.
This movie was done 23 years after the Mary Tyler Moore show was cancelled. When did Mary get married and move to New York?
Jiltedin2007 Maybe after getting fired, she decided to settle down and focus on family lol
Jachimma Nwachukwu Probably so, and with A Daughter around 21.

It doesn’t flow well, it wasn’t funny and it lacked a good script/writer. Rest In Peace you two lovely women who were role models… The entire main cast of MTM are all gone now. That kid who watched you in the 70’s grew up and works in an office ☺
That was a very sweet comment ❤️
The movie is damned ridiculous. When the show was cancelled, Mary's character was a 40-something spinster with no prospects. Now suddenly, viola, she's a widow with a grown daughter. "Katie Ford" probably watched 2 or 3 episodes max before writing this unfunny piece of trash.
Lol, no :)
The second “Sheila” was mentioned I shut off the movie. It was done in a gratuitous manner. If Mary has a son who was bisexual, the movie never would have been made.
Travis James yeah because they definitely weren’t /that/ progressive in 2002. You do know you’re commenting on a lesbian’s channel, right? Maybe hold your tongue next time. We don’t all need to share our thoughts and feelings every chance we get. Thanks.
Cracking Jugs for a woman in her early 60's
masstransit2 You think they're real? Think again.
Brooke Hanley
Fake or not they look good, aren't too big like most implants and are perky.
Still impressive even if real is better
masstransit2 If they are not real it really does not deserve a compliment for her age
Brooke Hanley
You're female, I'm male, we analyse these things in totally different ways.
I take it yours are real?
masstransit2 Yes, I have heard that men only care what they are looking at and how it looks. They couldn't care less if they are real or not, so that explains that.
mtm is blind now.....sorry
+Ken M no she isn't. she just some sight in one eye
she is BLIND kiddo!
I'm using my fianace's account i just read that she is almost completely blind, that's so sad. I'm a diabetic too and get laser treatments for my eyes. if i didn't get them, I'd go blind too. i also have stage 4 kidney disease. thankfully, I'm not on dialysis or need transplants yet. thank the Lord i have been stable for the past few year. God bless.
Richard Leon Praise God for that!
Amen!
