I see her on Match Game/Hollywood Squares Hour a lot. She was also part of one of the other couples on a Michael Lembeck Tattletales week we can never find.

Im guessing she is missing a lot during the last 12 eps of season 5

For a story on a drugged up 1979 Mack, it looks like they use a much younger photo of her.

Uh oh, she's going to be in quite a lot more episodes down the road. By season 9, like every episode. I like Grandma though. She has some funny lines. And funny how she picks at Ann like a real older Mother does to an adult Daughter.

I guess you didn't like Schneider the model the two guys you don't like getting drunk.

TVFactFan · 03-13-2026, 09:57 PM

well let me start with the Schneider the model episode. Schneider all happy he was offered a job as a model and turned out to be something he wasnt expecting lol I didnt like the 2nd half of the episode because I never ever been a fan of drunk sitcom characters. And it went on a bit too long to the point we never see him sober the remainder of the episode. I wasnt expecting the episode to end with him max drunk. I thought we would see Ann again with him sober.

BTW the reporter who was interviewing schneider also played a reporter in 1st season of jeffersons
