Such great chemistry between them. Cooked him with the 7 Dwarves line.
Writers should have given her a better broom joke, though.

 

[King Poetic]

Highly underrated and unappreciated

Marla Gibbs needed more work than she got during her career

a lot of older shows weren't shy about talking dollar figures or the cost of things back then. wealth inequality has gotten so bad that TV uses a euphamism not to put a dollar figure on anything even when a character is getting a job or negotiating for one.

Did Marla ever do amen?

Did Marla ever do amen?

I don't believe so.

Dude was a legend and it’s crazy it came out in public after he passed that he was gay. Dude had a lot of respect for it to be never talked about.
