This is similar to what Nick at Nite did in 1996 when RHODA aired at 10:30 after Mary. The line was "Classic TV neighbours together again".

MeTV is already airing a promo for the series -- but unless I missed her, Valerie Harper wasn't in the commercial...! I guess they're saving her for the next one.

I can still remember back when this series had its debut. In fact, I really only remember Valerie from Rhoda (as far as primetime viewing), as my memories of The Mary Tyler Moore Show are from the seasons following her departure.

Me-TV took a huge step above Antenna TV with this addition

Then how did Nick at Nite run it on and off for four years? Or AmericanLife TV for a year or so? Car 54 Where Are You ran only two seasons and MeTV runs that every Saturday night. There's no reason they couldn't get Phyllis. It may end up depending on how popular Rhoda is.

That is not all together true. 100 episodes is generally the key number of episodes for a series to really be considered for syndication. However, there are exceptions, take The Addams Family, The Munters and Gidget. Phyllis has aired on Nick at Nite before in a regular time-slot and Me-TV and Antenna TV could certainly try to get a hold of this series. Take The Mothers-in-Law, that series lasted 2 seasons and Me-TV is airing it in a regular time-slot.

It's going to come down to interest from the network and what can be worked out with the distributor.

One factor with two-season runs is the length of the season. As the decades have passed, seasons of more recently-broadcast programs have become shorter, leaving fewer episodes available for syndication.

Another factor is the frequency of broadcast. MeTV runs many shows only once or twice a week, on the weekends. The Green Hornet was only on one season, and they show that by having two episodes on Saturdays only. Three-season shows Star Trek and Lost in Space avoid quick burnouts by being shown only once a week on Saturdays. Gidget is only shown on the weekends, also.

The episode seems to be mostly uncut... maybe a tad time-compressed, and the scene at the beginning of act two with Rhoda and Joe talking about their date was cut out. But at least they left in the airport scene with Mary!

Julie Kavner has been the voice of Marge Simpson since 1987.

Tracey Ullman was the original voice of Marge when they first started doing the bumpers on Ullman's show, so she decided she would impersonate Julie Kavnar's voice, which is basically how Julie wound up getting the gig and taking the voice over.
