Magnificent interview! Mary was fearless and honest and unguarded in talking about anything he threw at her. I loved MTM. Rest in peace, beautiful, brilliant lady.
I love Mary Tyler Moore- so talented, super honest, intelligent, classy, sometimes childlike (which is nice), and funny. She is a performer through and through. Brilliant.
Boy! She was my mom 100%. My mom is still with us and she was MTM to the T. When I watch the shows , everything from the fashions to the actual story line was the 70’s for sure. These were great times when America was still together. Thankfully we have it on tape
As always she is so well spoken! And what a difference this interview is with the much more guarded, subdued Mary that came across in Barbara Walters interview from a dozen or so years earlier. She was repressing so much back then whereas here she's really comfortable with herself, and self accepting which makes her even more endearing. She was one of a kind.
Sameera A younger woman will marry an older man if he has money. And a younger man will marry an older woman if she serves as his mentor, that is, she shows him the ropes.
Larry King! don't interrupt!! Don't project!. Listen, to her, not yourself. "Isn't it painful?" ...really? Mary Tyler Moore, was a talented courageous person. His questions are shallow and inappropriate!
Mary Tyler Moore, Was a great person. It very sad her son who died so young. It said her Mary Tyler Moore show was only real experience. That happened in 1977. She was great in the movie Ordinary People. She was so mean to her son who try kill himself . He loved her so much she couldn't touch him.
I do sense deep inside she's a shy, reserved person. But wow, how she's impacted not just single women, but hordes of loyal fans like me who will finish watching the entire episode collection from her seven-year run. The earlier Dick Van Dyke shows don't interest me much. I believe her legacy is her groundbreaking show from 1970-77. People don't realize it now, but there were so many taboos and rules broken with that show. Mary really turned the world on with her smile😊😊
I remember reading “After All” and loving it. She had quite the amazing life, full of triumphs and tragedies. Larry King did his usual mediocre interview here, sometimes interrupting at the most inappropriate times.
MY TWO VERY FAVORITE WOMEN ENTERTAINERS WERE MARY TYLER MOORE AND BETTY WHITE. BOTH ARE SORELY MISSED, BUT FORTUNATELY WE HAVE THEIR SITCOMS ON YOU TUBE. TO REMEMBER THEM.
Larry is a lousy interviewer. I never understood how he managed to have such a successful show. Here he manages to not interrupt as frequently or ask as many ridiculous questions as he usually did.
It has been over 4 & 1/2 years since Mary Tyler Moore passed. (since then, every other cast member of the MTM show except for Betty White has died) Now, to the interview…Larry King is fair at best as an interviewer, and Miss Moore looked fairly well for 60. (though remember, she had had face work when she was 41) When I was younger, I loved Mary in her eponymous TV show. (and remember crying with some 20 others in the TV room at my alma mater in ‘77 when we watched “The Last Show”) But, Mary is an actress and the camera (in an interview) does not lie. She came across as guarded and a bit cold. (it wouldn’t be a stretch to say I place her in the same category of not nice individuals as Lucille Ball and Jerry Lewis) As far as her late son, Richie Meeker is concerned, I read her book and it wasn’t just her being driven in her career that she should have corrected. She even missed her son’s high school graduation because of the filming schedule of her show. (as a father, if I were her, you film the ceremony, and have a party, afterwards on the weekend) “You reap what you sow.”
I believe Mary suffered every day after her son died. I think she was much different than you compare to Lucille Ball. Mary was kind under it all but very driven and in control.
I think your judgment is wrong. Just imagine Mary wearing a wig that resembles how she looked on MTM or TDvDS. Hair is a huge influence on people's perceptions of beauty - or not.
Its Soo sad. I loved "The Mary Tyler Moore" when I was growing up but I had the extremely unpleasant experience of waiting on her at a restaurant I worked years ago in upstate New York. I have been a server for almost 40 years and have waited on several celebrities and she the rudest nastiest person I have ever come across.
@@GlennaVan it was many years after her son's death. It was in the 90's. that I waited on her. I've waited on many celebrities thru the years and Mary Tyler Moore and Jerry Lewis were the worst.
@@garydubois5539 I'm sorry to hear that and hope it was a single incident. I can see, based on her performances, where she could come across as being curt. Comparing her to Jerry Lewis, however, is horrible based on what I learned about him. I have two friends who had very close contact with him for extended periods, neither of whom had anything kind to say about him - one was related to how he treated his own children and the other was how he behaved behind the scenes on the sets. My husband liked him while I could not stand him *before* I had first-person stories about him.
@@joniheisenberg6691 she was with a party of about 8 people (friends and family) I was working at a restaurant in Millbrook NY near her horse farm. The party was originally sitting on the patio but were moved into my station because the bees were bothering them. Anyway I overheard her say to one of her guests that she liked the food here but the service wasn't very good. I have been a server for almost 40 years and I've been told I'm a good waiter. However I am not the kind of waiter who tries to remember an order without writing it down especially large parties and as I was clearing the entree plates Ms. Moore started calling out the coffee order for the whole table i.e. she'll have an espresso, my husband will have a half decaf latte with extrea foam etc.. I said please give me a moment to clear the table I would be happy to get their coffee order. We'll miss America can turn the world on with her smile have me a look that could have withered Napoleon. She decided to test me in front of her guests and I failed so she was able to prove her point. Hope that made her feel good. My impression watching her was she was much more like the character she played in Ordinary People than Mary Richards. And I'm not just talking about the way she treated me. She was pretentious and snotty. Merly Streep, Joan Rivers and Jane Curtain were warm friendly approachable and pleasant when I waited on them. MTM sent a cold shiver down my spine from the moment she walked into the restaurant. I still like her TV show because some very talented people are necessarily the nicest human beings. My favorite classical composer is Beethoven and most accounts say he was an asshole. LOL
Bianca Hotca I'm a newbee in this TRUTH called "transinvestigation," but from everything I've learned on RU-vid & Google MalesToFemales ALL have tons of plastic surgery as they get older for at least 2 reasons that I know of: 1) The female hormones that they've taken for decades & decades wreak havoc on their bodies & age them rapidly; 2) Despite the hormones, as MTFs age, the MALE comes out STRONG. Case in point: ALL ALL - yes, ALL "WOMEN" CELEBRITIES ARE MEN!!! If you follow their careers before the camera, you'll notice they ALL HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE! That said - none of the expert Truther Transinvestigators have done MTM that I could find...but there is a video re: her membership in "the Illuminati" which is Satan/Baphomet worship. These "elite" i.e., "freemasons" worship androgeny (like Satan), hail mysogeny, & consider 2 genders in 1 body reverence for their godSatan: substituting/exchanging THIS abomination for the Salvific Blood of Jeshua of Nazareth. Search out the TRUTH right here on RU-vid - though MANYMANY Channels are shut down over & over by the RU-vid Gatekeepers for revealing these "secrets." Long answer, but you deserve to know the TRUTH, sister!
I've been in love with her since i was 11 years old. I just love it when I see an interview with one of her co-workers and they say she is a wonderful person. You dream of being in the presence of someone like her. It's a cliche but she really did turn my world on with her smile. I loved her.
