The Mary Tyler Moore Show. Betty played the happy homemaker on the fictitious WJM television station in Minneapolis, where the show took place.But “off-camera,” Sue Ann’s character was feisty, flirtatious, and horny, and she made no secret about it.
She was head over heels for her boss, Lou Grant (played by Ed Asner who also died this year). Sue Ann’s character could easily have been a gay man, like a Jack McFarland from Will & Grace.
There weren’t any secrets with Sue Ann. She held nothing back and all her comments were double entendres. If you were a man – handsome or otherwise – Sue Ann was outrageously coquettish.
