I hear there's a secret episode of the MTM Show with Mary Richards indulging in her secret pastime and Ted Baxter as her grovelling, boot licking patsy.<br /><br />Looking forward to the Van Dyke mania.

My personal theory ...<i>(but why do I feel so dirty?)</i><br /><br />My personal theory about the photo is that it makes us laugh because it's so unexpected, but it sticks with us because deep down we know it's true -- Rob and Laura spent the entire series chaffing at society's expectations for them, that he would be the bread-winner and she would be the stay-at-home mom -- in fact, he hated to be in charge and she wanted to <i>do</i> something.<br /><br />Glad to see they made it.Mythical Monkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11330587602682498820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6924668268143757716.post-32342528652492693532011-08-15T19:35:48.555-04:002011-08-15T19:35:48.555-04:00That photo is priceless on so many levels (but why...That photo is priceless on so many levels (but why do I feel so dirty?)FlickChickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17351624749230610755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6924668268143757716.post-68367123211636270982011-08-13T13:32:03.143-04:002011-08-13T13:32:03.143-04:00Great photo!!
