Complex

[Duke100]

*I'm thinking of starting a mini-series, Complex, about Rose and a colorful cast of characters. This is a crossover with Three's Company and can also be found on that board.

Characters:
Betty White as Rose Nylund: Same old, naive Rose is back in a new series!
Joyce DeWitt as Janet Wood-Dawson: A former tenant, who returns after her husband's death
Mo'Nique as Maya Moreno: Vi's man-crazy best friend
Julia Duffy as Vicki Martin-Kennedy: One of Rockwell's tenants
Steve Martin as Marcus Kennedy: Vicki's husband of 15 years
Scott Weinger as Richard Martin: Vicki's baby brother
Blake Woodruff as Jerry Nylund: Vi's 9 year old grandson
And Carol Burnett as Violet (Vi) Nylund: Rose's cousin, the landlord of the Rockwell Apartments
