Confused Patricia Richardson was booked and busy up until 2023

Patricia Richardson has not been seen on screen since 2023, after decades of consistently working in Hollywood. The star began her screen career in 1979, with a small guest arc on "The Doctors," but mainstream success did not come overnight. Richardson's 1980s roles were mostly minor, with the exception of three television series — "Double Trouble," "Eisenhower & Lutz," and "FM" — all of which were cancelled in their first season. Richardson broke her one-season streak with "Home Improvement," a key part of most older millennials' childhoods and easily her biggest project to date.

As matriarch Jill Taylor, Patricia Richardson grounded "Home Improvement" and ensured the male-dominated show had at least one strong female figure. "When I took the job, they said it wasn't meant to be the Tim Allen show. It was meant to be our show," Richardson told the Los Angeles Times. "I've always said, I don't want to play the thankless wife." The actor received four Primetime Emmy and two Golden Globe nominations for the role, but eventually turned down a massive $1 million-per-episode offer to return for a ninth season.

Richardson stayed busy after "Home Improvement," headlining Lifetime's "Strong Medicine" and appearing in several films. She also appeared in a bunch of TV movies, including Hallmark's "Snow Bride," "Chance at Romance," and "Smart Cookies." While she seems open to working, she told the Los Angeles Times in 2024 that "nobody gets hired in their 70s if they're female in this business."

^^^ "No one gets hired in their 70s if they're female in this business."

Is legendary lady Donna Mills aware of this? According to what is listed on this page here, she is still pretty active, and she is going to be 85 on her next birthday!

God bless you and Donna and Patricia always!!!
