Valerie Harper, Rhoda on ‘Mary Tyler Moore Show,’ Dies at 80

Though her friendship with the Mary Richards character was a chief appeal of the show, her character was so popular that the network spun off “Rhoda,” which ran from 1974-78 on CBS.

“Even with all the feminism we had gone through, being married was equated with success,” she told the TV Academy. She went on to guest on familiar series such as “The Love Boat,” “Melrose Place,” “That ’70s Show,” “Sex and the City,” “Hot in Cleveland“ and “Desperate Housewives.”

Valerie was a perfect foil for Mary, they were comedy gold together. We stayed in on Saturday night to watch, back in the days before you could record TV. RIP, Valerie, you put up a hell of a fight.

Is that her at 80? She looks barely looks 60 in this photo.

RIP - a wonderful talent. So funny and lovely. God bless her family and friends x

I loved Rhoda...she was the best...RIP😢
