I was fortunate to work a few days in Mary's NYC apt..she was so friendly..a.and when her dog (dogs?) barked she yelled out ' sooorrrryyyy about thatttt'..I took a moment on my way out to tell her how important she was to my generation...she warmly accepted my words with her famous smile....great personal moment....
She was truly amazing in Ordinary People. She proved how truly talented she was.
Mary was a legend.
In my next life...i hope i meet a man like this...
I already have a man like that.
We’re out there, ma’am. But we’re not on Tinder or in the bars. Get involved in something worthwhile, and you’ll run into some of us doing that same thing.

I want a man like that in THIS life!
a Dr.
When I was 9, we moved to a new house. It was just me and my mom. in the summer, we painted. It was Saturday and we were done for the day. We sat on the covered-up furniture and watched Mary Tyler Moore. It was such a fun time.
Rest In Peace dear lady. Thank you for entertaining me and making me laugh with talent.
Seemed like he really did love Mary.
I am sure glad that her husband Robert is carrying on her legacy and carrying on her dedication to Diabetes. RIP Mary Tyler Moore
Really liked the doc. Noticed she was very self conscious about her looks, when she was on home movies .. noticed how fashionable she was in 60’s & 70’s . Her smile was gorgeous
i saw tape when she asked a kid not to take her pic cuz she wasn't wearing makeup.
the MTM documentary was really, really, good! What a beautiful person she was!
I watch the documentary and enjoyed it very much. And because of that, I am now binge watching Mary Tyler Moore. That show was so funny. Lou Grant was hilarious, Rhoda, Phyllis, Ted. It’s just been a good fun trip down memory lane.
She was so special ❤.
Incredible documentary, a true special being. It will make you cry.
❤ Just loved her! Miss her so much!
Mary was a role model for me being a working single woman with a cute apt dating and having a great life. She made an impact and her husband is someone we would all strive to have as a partner.❤
A fictional character was a role model for you?
I guess because the REAL LIFE Mary couldn't be - she needed a powerful man like Grant Tinker to build her show & production company & without his connections & pull in Hollywood, she wouldn't have been as successful
I'll never understand why women today aspire to be successful working single women
Sad that feminists have brainwashed & tricked modern women into believing that they need some fancy career to be content & happy, when in fact the most powerful thing a woman can do is be a mother, to bring life into the world & shape that life into a worthwhile being who is a contributing, productive member of society
I was somewhat un-nerved by the documentary due to the realization that she had suffered quite a bit of mental anguish. Having had an emotionally absent alcoholic mother is a recipe for disaster. And yet in spite of that she enjoyed enormous professional success. That speaks volumes about her determination. And I can see why the first 2 marriages were not the loves of her life and probably not the best choices for someone who needed emotional fulfillment. Along comes Dr Levine and she finally knows real love.
Where can we watch the documentary @jv?
Wow Mary Tyler Moore and her lovely husband who adored her
And Tina Turner and her adoring husband
makes me feel ❤ and that this type of partnership is real and solid and possible for any of us……..
And both of them married younger men, which I think is fabulous.
She was absolutely brilliant in Ordinary People. I miss her.
Ms.Moore was a Special human being and actress.
Just watched this. MTM my absolute favorite. It boggles my mind how she was able to do so much as a Type 1, especially back then as she didn't have access to the T1 medical technology we have today. I wish I could thank Mary right now....myself being diagnosed (as an adult), as a type 1 diabetic - near death, fighting this horrible painful life altering disease....I so appreciate the pain and struggles she went thru...and so appreciate her fight for T1 research, partnering with JDRF. One of my all time favorite actors.
Lovely heartfelt comment, Christopher. Good luck to you.
All the best. I have a friend who is type 1. He met her at a JDRF event here in NYC. She was remarkable.
Ms. Moore was one of my favorite actors. Something about the way she worked. The precision. She was outstanding. I'm so sorry she died, but we had her with us. She made life better. Life is such a gift, and she made it better. I think that's what artists do.
Thankfully, she lived a long, productive life.
I met Mary Tyler Moore on a movie set in Toronto in 1984 - Wonderful Women . ❤
Woman *
Throwing my hat into the air for you Mary!
Mary Tyler Moore a hero and favorite actress of mine, my entire life. She was EXTRAORDINARY!
I loved her from Day 1 on the DVD Show. What a wonderful man her husband is. He truly loved her. They both found their “person”. What a blessing. I miss seeing her…… 💜
Her husband seems like a serious person. In a good way.
I loved the Mary Tyler Moore show
She was such a beautiful woman
I grew up watching the Mary Tyler Moore Show in the 1970s. MTM in that show made see possibilities of who I could be and what I could do. She inspired me. Thank you, Mary, from the bottom of my heart.
I have a close family member who works is diabetes research. Type 2, which most people have, is a piece of cake to control, compared to Type 1. The fact that Mary had Type 1 Diabetes and accomplished all that she did, speaks so well of her dedication and focus in her life.
I got type 1 diabetes at age 30. I was diagnosed six weeks before my 31st birthday. Times have sure changed since then. I am now on an insulin pump with a continuous glucose monitor and it is essentially an artificial pancreas. What a life changer. Mary got it many years ago when type 1 diabetes treatment was primitive. They would measure glucose levels not by blood but by urine and that was a very inefficient way of telling what the blood sugar levels were. I am amazed she was able to do as well as she did for so long considering she didn't have the benefits of the marvelous technology available today that has transformed blood sugar management.
@@janicetehie3839 Wishing you the very best. An insulin pump is a huge asset to monitoring your condition.
Type 2 and other types of diabetes are also very difficult to control.
@@Ausgar-yc1yl Generally speaking, Type 1 diabetes is more dangerous than Type 2 diabetes as there is no treatment for Type 1 and lifelong dependency on insulin is the only solution. Frequent blood sugar testing is an essential part of managing Type 1 diabetes, because blood sugar levels can go up and down quickly. Type 2 diabetes also has no known cure. It is, nevertheless, feasible to obtain some remission. Some patients who lose a large amount of weight will eventually be able to stop taking diabetic medication. However, this does not guarantee that glucose levels will remain normal indefinitely. Both Type 1 and Type 2 are challenging, but Type 1, has many more serious complications.
Brought joy and tears to my eyes! She will always be an icon! As a child, who grew up watching her show, I wanted to be Mary! She paved the way for so many women! She did make it after all!
Yes Mary did but Marlo Thomas was before her as the career oriented liberal single girl on her own in the big city!
Oprah said the same. In fact she burst into tears when MTM made a surprise guest appearance in her show. Whatever you may think about O, she overcame a lot herself,
Everyone loves Mary.
We miss you, Mary!!! Robert is such a nice man. I want to watch this film
I remember this one particular interview Mary gave where she said that she would take a dozen donuts to the set and she would have it devoured in no time. I guess this was before she was diagnosed with the disease. I loved Mary. She was a class act.
She did so much to raise awareness and money for children with Type 1 diabetes which is the main reason I admire her. I also watched her, later in life, in a movie where she played the con artist and murderess, Sante Kines. Her performance was chilling, scared me to death, and a far cry from the comedic roles she was usually given. She was obviously also an incredible dramatic actress. I would have liked to have seen her in the more dramatic roles.
What a great lady......and so simple love...u feed ur love....how nice .
I just adored her and love her shows. Her hhusband seems like a wonderful ,an.
I left my small home town in MN for Minneapolis where i focused on my career because iof her example. I wanted to be like her. I have a excellent life today & it is because of her influence and example. Bb💟
God was showing off when Mary was made.
Mary was joyous and always incandescent.
With love and gratitude for all of Mary's movies.
No one could smile like beautiful Mary.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
She could do it all-sing, dance, act, etc.
I met Mary and her first husband while sitting next to them at the Premier of the Tony Randal Show set. One of the creators of the Mary Tyler Moore show was our friend.
Suspect that was Grant Tinker, given the timing, who was her 2nd husband. Her first husband was Richard Meeker
I think Hoda should meet Dr. Levine. They are wonderful people who deserve to have a good partner. Hoda is so special.
Wonderful Husband!
MTM was such a big part my entertainment across the 60's & 70's
Mary was an inspiration and was partly responsible for my career success.
Just wish the interviewers would shut up and let the guest speak! We don't need to hear her thoughts, it's all about what he has to say.
Mary Tyler Moore was a beautiful confident and inspirational woman.
I watched the MTM show in the 70s.
Why don't we get to see any reruns on British TV?
The only shows we see are Columbo and Murder She Wrote.
There are plenty of great shows from the 60s, 70s and 80s that have just disappeared.
He was a very mature 29 year old Dr when he married the star who looked younger than her 47🎉🎉 Married for over 30 years is cause for celebration 🍾 😄
She never looked younger at 47
I love Mary Tyler Moore . I remember watching her as I was growing up . I had no idea she was efficient with Type 1 diabetes. Thank you Mary for all the good times
What a nice kitty picture!
@@bluecollarlit Thank you his name is Kipper
Her songs were magical
songs?
I loved her so much and own her dvd set from MTM show. I don’t have HBO but I’ll figure it out! ❤️MTM❤️
Mary Tyler Moore was so pretty!
Wow I will be watching. Thank you ! ❤
What a cool marriage they had.
Some celebrities are just loved by everyone, like Betty White & possibly Tom Hanks. Mary was definitely in that category.
I had no idea Mary Tyler Moore was a Cougar. I love Cougars, especially Norma Desmond in "Sunset Blvd". ❤❤‼‼
Norma wasn't a cougar, she was insane.
@@auapplemac2441 Norma Desmond was a cougar, plain and simple.
I still have a crush on Mary.
her dead body?
She should have won the Oscar for Ordinary People.
Hoda has never boiled water! 😂
Her husband looks exactly like Ron Brownstein, the journalist. At first I thought she WAS married to Brownstein.
Where have I been? When did Jenna Bush become a journalist?
Since her parents are rich and famous, she can pretend to do any job she chooses... ; )
@@bluecollarlit 😂 true
I'm struggling to hear Robert over the loud music. Not even good music.
Where do we see this?
HBO Max
Mary Ester Hill (Authentic)
"NOT" Laura Ingram who Portrays
Mary Taylor More (Actor)
😭😭😭
I didn’t know she was an alcoholic. More proof that fame and fortune isn’t the most important thing even though everyone’s chasing after it.
I don’t like to be critical but…nepotism bugs me. Jenna has an awful voice. I don’t believe she’d be in this line of work if her last name was not Bush.
Marlo Thomas did it first with "That Girl"
As a woman who watched Marlo Thomas and MTM as a child/teenager, I assure you, there's no comparison between the two. I never used "That Girl" for any inspiration.
Mary says n the documentary there was a dif. Ann wanted to get married. Mary did not.
I love Marlo and Mary but actually Marlo started it all with her feminine activism and career girl status for future girls to emulate. If one really looks at overall picture MTM borrowed all her gimmicks from That Girl!
One more thing I never could stomach MTM when she was whiney Laura but came to like her as Mary Richards
@@markwhitman9029 I have noticed That the mary tyler moore show did borrow some things from that girl. They are both good shows.
Vocal fry alert!
It's the new thing that kids are doing. Mentally challenged kids...
thank you
?
Love Mary and her shows, but the feminist framing of her life and career is an absurdity which is not true and which, in any case, she herself largely rejected. First the MTM image was a creation of her husband, the famous TV producer, Grant Tinker. And Mary herself was at heart a conservative woman who regularly watched Fox News and greatly admired Pope John Paul II.
@2Uahoj, Finally, some accuracy! Thank you!!!
Who said she watched fox nooz?
@@bluecollarlit She said it in an interview.
Tuna fish sandwich? Did she really eat, ever?
The very best husbands are handsome Jewish doctors. I’m looking…..
Jenna’s voice is unbearable, sorry.
Can't stomach her or her father! Go have a brandy
spent too much time on plastic surgery
Lol somewhat true and it didn't take well. I kinda felt sorry for her
Grant Tinker was a good looking guy ( first hubby)
Grant was 2nd hubby.
Sorry, can't get thru an interview conducted by the daughter of a war criminal
What a stupid comment
And the 2000 election thief! Chads my fat fanny!!
I am not impressed by Jenna Bush. Such an obvious nepo hire.
she stole the job from sara hines.
Always disliked the "recovering alcoholic" who like her parents phoney bologna
I'd like to watch this but possum eyed Jenna is the pits.
LOL she does look like a possum. She needs to drink again
Near the end of her life, Mary called the police to have them remove, in her own words, her "estranged husband." He drove off. It was one of several calls. How... how, I ask, can people not see this sleazy character for what he was and is? I don't know who should be filled with less self-esteem, Levine or war criminal's daughter Jenna.
I don't know about Levine,but on Bush,you're right.But nbc likes those types.
@@voiceguy3635 So does ABC, CBS, CNN, and on and on. That said, Levine is pretty obvious to anyone who has been around the block.
Wow! I didn’t know that! I do know I didn’t believe he wasn’t aware of her fame. She’s Mary Tyler Moore!
@@RustyRules426 Lucille Ball's second husband Gary Morton, 11 years younger, played the same con game, claiming he had never seen "I Love Lucy."
I doubt that we can know what the full story is as far as the calls to the police you speak of; Moore had severe health problems toward the end of her life, was very elderly and it is not out of the question that she may have suffered from dementia. These days, and especially involving such a high-profile person in a wealthy community, it doesn’t make sense that a possible elder abuse situation would not be thoroughly investigated. Plus, it is hard to believe that younger friends and colleagues would have stood by passively if they felt she was being mistreated. Not saying it’s impossible, but seems unlikely to me.
he married money....good for him...Prolly didn't want for nothing....
she was hot btw...and stayed that way...
He was a successful doctor.
I'm now seeing MTM in a different light. Happy that she found love with the doctor! Who wouldn't he was rich too? What gives me pause is Grant Tinker pretty much jump started her career and made her a powerful Hollywood producer so what went wrong there? I've also concluded that when her son died she interviewed pretty coldly concerning it now after her deathv she's put on pedestal over it. Albeit I do like her she always struck me as posing and holding back her true feelings about things in her life
@@tjlpartners8263 He was not making anywhere near the money MTM was worth,
@@brookehanley3659 that's what Im saying. Doctoring back in the day paid zippo! comparatively....
Adore MTM and Jenna is a ROCKSTAR!
They were horrible humans and there son shot himself
False
a real good woman
