In 1977, The Final Episode of “The Mary Tyler Moore Show”: Minneapolisʹs WJM has just been bought by a new owner who has made it clear he will be clearing out some of the deadwood on the news staff. Most assumed it would be Ted Baxterʹs empty head that would roll. The staff was summoned and the verdict was swift: “Ted, youʹre staying. And the rest of you guys, Iʹm gonna have to let you go.” After their last broadcast together was over, they stood in the newsroom until gruff news director Lou Grant blurted out, “I treasure you guys.” In a flash, they were locked together in a weepy group hug. Said Lou, “I think we all need some Kleenex.” Georgette replied, “Thereʹs some on Maryʹs desk.” No one wanted to let go, so the whole gang, like some gigantic, ungainly crab, scuttled over to the desk in one of TVʹs most hilarious, touching, and inspired bits of physical comedy.
