THE MARY TYLER MOORE SHOW MINI-MARATHON
November 10, 2016  | By David Bianculli  | 2 comments

Sundance, 6:00 a.m. ET

 

Sundance’s showcase of classic sitcoms continues, with today’s daytime launch of a mini-marathon of one of the shows that changed the face of television: 1970’s The Mary Tyler Moore Show, the first series from the taste-establishing, groundbreaking MTM Productions. The first half of Season 1 is shown in a big burst starting at 6 a.m. ET, with more episodes to follow. It takes attitude, and a little bravery, for Sundance to clear so much time on its schedule for such a quality, yet vintage, series. Sundance has got spunk. And, in this case, I like spunk…

And I like your review! (Referencing the wonderfully, hilarious first episode of MTM!) I also agree that bringing Mary and friends back is a long awaited gift to the viewing public. I'm recording every episode to replace all once saved on dearly departed video tape. Thank you Sundance! And thank you, DB, for spreading the word.

Dear Nancy, Yes, it's great to see them like this -- and All in the Family is in the mix, too, with more to come. It's my favorite thing about Best Bets: steering readers to stuff they treasure!
