If any of you watch the Mary Tyler Moore Show ; in the episode when Mary dates a younger college student - and he invites Mary & Rhoda to a party, in the scene when they go to a young persons boutique: the snotty girl employee - is the girl playing Nancy on this episode.
This show is definitely a soap opera through and through, but even the National PTA didn’t understand why, and gave it an award for endorsement of family values all around.
The writers chose to write in a divorce when the actor who played Nancy’s husband Jeff decided to leave the show. He wanted his character to have more scenes. But he realized the ones living in the home with the parents would be getting the most. Soap Opera or not I loved this show.
