4. She was great on The Mary Tyle Moore Show in the 1970's.

We used to have get-togethers and parties when the program came on. It was such a hoot. Can you imagine?

11. She was married to Allen Ludden of the game show 'Password' too

<snip>
During the 1960s, her resume shifted more into the role of "television personality," as she perpetually co-hosted NBC's coverage of the Tournament of Roses Parade and played virtually every television game show.

Her 1963 marriage to the host of Password, Allen Ludden, made her synonymous with one of television's most enduring games. She appeared on the final episode of every version and variation of Password, with the exception of the end of Password Plus in 1982. When Super Password ended in 1989, she told host Bert Convy, "I've put this baby to bed more times than you can imagine."

12. Amen! Happy, HAPPY birthday to Betty!

I loved her as Sue Ann on MTM...and as a Golden Girl...AND as a voice for those whose voice is a bark or meow.

Here's to more than 17 additional ones!:D

[Syrinx]

18. damn, that tastes good!

Everybody's enjoying it -- except Ben. 'Cause he's dead and all.

[peekaloo]

22. Happy B-Day to you!

Cool that Benjamin Franklin is the same day.

Uncool that J.E.J. and Krock share it.


:party:

[Syrinx]

23. thanks!

But what's wrong with James Earl Jones? Is he a Republican or something? You're not thinking of James Earl Ray, by chance?

[peekaloo]

25. I could be wrong but I think JEJ is a Repuke.

[Cell Whitman]

16. She does a great play by play of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Great way to start what is also known in some parts as "The Day of the Naps"

[Vektor]

19. OMG

I love her.
Happy Birthday Betty!

[KT2000]

20. Boston Legal on Sunday

She was great on Boston Legal - a very funny character - really off the wall comments in her sweet voice.

Allen Shore has a problem with sexual harassment so they brought her in as his new assistant.

Very good show in my opinion.

[peekaloo]

21. She's hilarious. She appeared last year on 'The Practice'

during a murder trial storyline. It will be great if Alan is forced to hire her......she's whacko and hates his guts.

Happy Birthday Miss Betty!

[Lorien]

24. She's cool

still sharp, fresh and funny after all these years; she hasn't seemed to age much since the '70's either! Love all the work she's done for homeless pets, too. :loveya: Betty!

26. Get it Be-TAY!

Happy Birthday, girl!
