[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 373890, member: 57984"] Which MTM documentary was that -- what was the title? I have one called, I think, "A Celebration," which I believe aired on PBS shortly before she died... It was okay, I guess, but I didn't particularly like it. Flat and pedestrian. It's no surprise that sensitive Mary was apathetic on feminism, and her role of Mary Richards wasn't as edgy or as militant as the feminists wanted -- although they mostly accepted the show because it was all they had. Mary later denied assertions that Mary Richards would ever have grown into acerbic Murphy Brown. Mary stated that the reason the Equal Rights Amendment was defeated in the early-'70s was because of the nasty behavior she witnessed from so many of the feminists at the rallies she'd attended. And this was when Mary was still an active liberal, campaigning for Jimmy Carter. But that's the thing about feminism: well-intentioned people are driven away from it, while the girl ghouls jump right in with exultant enthusiasm.
