Is There ANY Character on 'Mary Tyler Moore' You Wish Had More to Say Or Do??? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Any character whether it be fulltime star or recurring star that you wish had more lines or stories directed at him or her? Someone who you feel could have been utilized a little bit more?

Gordy (off the top of my head) John Amos was great on TMTMS. Wished they had given him more to do on the show. Pity.

(That he sucked on Good Times wasn't his fault but the fault of BAD writing and directing)

Marie.
I can't understand why she wasn't featured more.

I'd like to have seen Robert C.Brand in a few more MTM episodes.

Wish Phyllis got have done more episodes as Phyllis before the spin off Phyllis but she was always busy elsewhere according to James L.Brooks.
