Al's mom on Home Improvement!
Norm's wife Vera on Cheers

there were 3 episodes of "Cheers" when we did hear Veras voice; and in 1 of them they also showed her legs. Her voice was done by George Wednts real wife.
Also in 1 of those episodes they DID show her, but her face was obscured.

On Family Matters, Steve Urkel`s parents were always spoken about, especially earlier on, but were never seen.

On Married...With Children, Peg Bundy`s mother wasn't seen either. She yelled from upstairs, and we would hear her walk, LOL, but she wasn't shown.

How about Mr. Peterson's nagging wife Doris or Michelle's overbearing father on The Bob Newhart Show? These were members of Bob's therapy group who never, ever got better (at least while Bob was their therapist).
