[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 417497, member: 57984"] Yes, RHODA's changing/lack-of identities, already much-discussed, always leaves me perplexed. Once they dispensed with the family/Joe dynamic from the early years, deliberately shifting to single-girl-Rhoda-in-Manhattan, I can't decide if they did their late-'70s-disco-era thing [B][I]too [/I][/B]much, or if they should've leaned into it [I][B]more [/B][/I]than they did, shifting into a Slutty-Rhoda-does-Studio-54 distinctiveness where Rhoda & Brenda wind up like Diane Keaton at the end of LOOKING FOR MR. GOODBAR. It's the perfect counterbalance to the bittersweet finale of MARY TYLER MOORE. And perhaps more honest. Certainly more unusual for series television. [/QUOTE]
