Tyne Daly Joins Cast of "Murphy Brown" Revival
by Denise Petski
April 19, 2018

Tyne Daly has signed on to the cast of "Murphy Brown", CBS’ revival of the 1988 sitcom.

The former star of "Cagney & Lacy" and "Judging Amy" will play Phyllis, the sister of the beloved, deceased bar owner Phil from the original series, and it’s evident that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. She has taken over the bar and is a friend and confidant to Murphy and the gang.

Shades of Charlene/Carlene on “Designing Women” and Julie/Judy McCoy on “Love Boat”. Lazy, unsophisticated writing.

If they dig any deeper they'll be casting dead relics from The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. Going for the widder's old age home audience.
