A talented actress for sure. For those who think she only played spunky funny girls, watch "Ordinary People", an Oscar winning film from 1980. A very, very good movie.

I remember seeing Ordinary People in 1980. I was always a fan of MTM, but I came out of that movie almost HATING her. She certainly wasn't Mary Richards or Laura Petrie, but an nasty cold hearted B****. She could act. I liked her in the movie 'Heart Sounds' with James Garner

She was great with comedy, but a very good serious actress as well.

Not only a beautiful classy lady, but equally talented as well. Who didn't love Mary...

Loss of some iconic talent and, from all accounts, a classy lady.
