Summer Fridays can be tough. While all of the cool kids are off to their summer rentals, the rest of us plebes are stuck in front of our computers. Though we're not necessarily working through the day.Our new old addiction is watching episodes of the Mary Tyler Moore show on Hulu.com. While everyone else is still enamored with Carrie and company, we're retro-crushing Mary and Rhoda (though more of Rhoda). It's hard to believe that nearly four decades before Bridget, MTM was living life as a single, successful thirty-something. Sure the dialogue is sometimes cliched or politically incorrect at times, but the friendships ring true, the work situations are sometimes excruciating and being unattached doesn't seem quite as tragic.
When watching these old episodes we couldn't help but wonder: When did strong, fun, funny, female characters disappear and become replaced by airbrushed, air-brained clones?
(Check out Phyllis's outfit in this episode- we would kill for it!)
