[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 408601, member: 23"] Oh yikes. That's more than a little ugly. It's incredible Harold Gould was cast at all since he (and Martin) ticked all three boxes. I'm very glad he was cast, though. Blissful as they are most of the time, one of the things I enjoy is the undercurrent of volatility in the relationship. Both are strong-minded characters and already there have been a number of arguments. Last night I watched an episode in which Rhoda set ground rules about [U]how[/U] they argue, to ensure it's healthy and respectful... and she still managed to bulldoze him. Thanks, and I'm feeling fairly certain I'll check out at least an episode or two with an open mind and see if it's for me. There are very few names in the cast I recognise, so it could go either way. After her appearance on [I]Columbo[/I] I did read about the murder of Barbara Colby, so it's interesting to now have more context that [I]Phyllis's[/I] opening episodes were her final screen appearances. At the moment, both seasons are showing up for me in different playlists, so that looks promising. Oh yes. As I watched I didn't make the Rhoda connection with those two, but I can completely see why you got that impression from them. It looks like that was an early Season Six episode, so it was timely for Phyllis's departure, but very belated for Rhoda (although by that point at least Rhoda's wedding had been acknowledged over on [I]MTM[/I].
