Nice Meathead – nice tribute to Ms. Stapleton – who proved that not all women submitted themselves to the Hollywood Glamor Machine in order to become a successful actress.
Take your time; If you do come up with a drawing of Jean Stapleton, feel free to post it, even if it is an “extra” K Chronicle. She was indeed much more than Edith (thank goodness for that!) Nonetheless, when the “Dingbat” made a stand, it was a stirring sight to behold.
This brings to mind the sad loss in 2004 of Isabel Sanford, the talent behind Louise Jefferson. We’ve heard of “henpecked husbands;” Sanford was brilliant as ’Weezy, the “Roosterpecked Wife” in bringing a conscience to the storyline. Isabel and Jean have now both moved on up…

I’ve seen clips of her doing theater, she was briliant.

“Her humanity held the show together.” Beautifully and succinctly put.

You are correct. I’m glad you once let her know how a fan felt; I’m sure she appreciated it.

“Oh Archie” is firmly fixed in my brain. Here’s to a great actress!
