From seeing Phyllis and Rhoda Together on MTM, do you think that Phyllis purposely - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TVFactFan · 08-09-2006, 01:43 PM

did not pick Rhoda up on her wedding day?-lol I haven't followed the relationship of Rhoda and Phyllis on MTM so I'm just wondering if that's why Phyllis didn't pick Rhoda Up.

BTW: Rhoda's running through the streets with a wedding dress on should be in the sitcom hall of fame

Phyllis and Rhoda didn't have a great friendship, I don't even think Phyllis was invited to Rhoda's wedding. I think Phyllis volunteered to pick Rhoda up, But then she "conveniently" forgot to pick her up. So I do think she did it on purpose.

Phyllis was always jealous of the relationship that Rhoda and Mary had.

I agree, I do think it was done on purpose, although, Phyllis was somewhat of a scatter brain.

Phyllis would not have been that cruel. She is oblivious to other's feelings. She is scattered brained. She even said it herself. I have an ep of "Phyllis" when she tries to prove a point to someone that she does have one true friend in Mary by testing Mary to see if she will come out to San Francisco without any questions. Mary does it but Phyllis tries to call back and tell her she really did not need her to come out. The line is busy. Phyllis assumes that Mary would not be that idiotic to actually do it and "forgets" to call her back again when the lines are free again. Phyllis made me mad when she did this. LOL.

I don't think Phyllis hated Rhoda THAT much...but who knows?? I wish we could have seen Rhoda give Phyllis a beat down though...THAT would've been classic.

I think so too, Phyllis really liked to give Rhoda a hard time.

catlover79 · 04-27-2007, 12:23 AM

I just saw the ep for the very first time. I really do think Phyllis forgot. She was so wrapped up in buying the perfect outfit, and generally butting in everywhere (no surprise there) that it slipped her mind to pick up Rhoda. Though Rhoda DID make the suggestion that Phyllis pick her up. I thought Rhoda would know better!!

One other reason I think Phyllis really did forget -- who in their right mind would do something like that on purpose and risk the wrath of Rhoda's mom Ida?? I thought she would strangle Phyllis!!

Well Atleast Rhoda had the mindset to not sit there and continue waiting-lol Most people would have never done what she did

Well said, Monika! I also don't think Phyllis was ever that devious. Sure, she and Rhoda didn't get along, but she just wouldn't do something like that on purpose. She's just REALLY scatterbrained, that's all. As for Ida, yeah, the phrase, "If looks could kill" does come to mind!
