Yep.

Vicki Lawrence (March 26, 1949) played 65-year-old Thelma "Mama" Harper on "Mama's Family", starting in January 1983, when she was only 33. Her son, Vinton (Ken Berry, November 3, 1933), daughter in law, Naomi (Dorothy Lyman, April 18, 1947), first daughter Fran (Rue McClanahan, February 21, 1934), second daughter, Ellen (Betty White, January 17, 1922), and third daughter, Eunice (Carol Burnett, April 25, 1933) were ALL OLDER THAN VICKI LAWRENCE! Yet they all played her kids. Go figure. Betty White was in her 60's when she was on "Mama's Family", go figure.

Especially Betty White!
