Okay so a few months ago, I found out that the cast of RHODA appeared on Dinah Shore's talk show "Dinah!" in 1975. I decided to go on a hunt through the internet to find the episode or at least photos from it. Unfortunately, I didn't find anything. I did, however, find other clips of Valerie Harper of "Dinah!", like when she appeared alongside Lucille Ball and Dinah, Val, and Lucy all sang "Hey, Look Me Over!". However, I am not referring to those. The one I'm referring to (that I legit could not find anywhere) had Val, Julie, David Groh, and I think Nancy Walker and Harold Gould. Does anyone remember this episode? I was born in 2005 so, unfortunately, I did not get to see it when it originally aired. I'm just super curious about it!
ALSO, I did recently post the TV Guide ad for it in the photo gallery for RHODA on here. The photo used on the ad is just a photo of Val though.
The only thing that seems easily findable is some of the cast on Sally Jesse Raphael in 1996. If anyone wants to see that one, off to YouTube you go.

I did actually see that on YouTube! I also found the cast reunion on Hour Magazine, but the Dinah! episode I literally cannot find anywhere. Just the TV Guide ad for it

The episode does exist. As I stated in the original post, I did find a TV Guide clipping from it and did post it in the RHODA photo gallery on here. I also found some people on Facebook that remember seeing the episode when it aired. :-)

I don't know. That's why I'm asking here bc a lot of people are knowledgeable. Also, a lot of clips from Dinah! have resurfaced on the internet and I one day hope that the RHODA one will resurface one day. I was really just wondering if anyone remembers seeing it when it first aired and if someone had clips or photos, than that would've been a bonus

There’s a trading post board here. You might want to ask there.

They seemingly have lots of obscure stuff and may not read the RHODA board. So maybe you’ll have some luck.

I'll definitely try there! Ty!
Best I can do is Fonzie on Dinah! & Friends on December 12, 1979.

Keep an eye on The Museum of Classic Chicago Television (https://www.youtube.com/@FuzzyMemoriesTV/videos) YouTube channel. Maybe it will turn up one day.
They have the Eight Is Enough cast on the show from 1980.

1975 is going to be more difficult to find because fewer people had VCRs. I don't know if the Rhoda episode was ever rebroadcast after the original airing.
You could try to request it from this site. They have some footage with TV casts.
