Check out what else Carole Cook (Flora) was in! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I was channel-surfing and discovered this movie, "Grandview U. S. A.", with Jamie Lee Curtis (whom I consider a very cool person and have been told I resemble, though I am not so sure LOL) in the lead role of a woman who runs a demolition derby. Not my thing (and neither were her "Halloween" movies), but I came into it near the end so I watched it a bit.

There were a couple of scenes in which I saw a woman who looked and sounded very familiar. It dawned on me after listening to her talk and watching her big, expressive eyes--it was Carole Cook, who played Ed's girlfriend Flora! This movie was made about 10 years after her appearances on CATM, in 1984. I am not sure exactly who she was supposed to be, but she was nearly unrecognizable except for the things that caught my attention!

Cool, Mariposa. She did "The Incredible Mr. Limpet" in 1964. She looked a lot younger in that movie.

BTW she was a guest star in a lot of shows back then.
