Brenda Dickson's divorce trial heats up in a MAJOR way

[Khan]

No, Betty White never really went away. But she certainly had to dumb down her approach to humor in order to appeal to today's crowd. "Hot in Cleveland," the SNL appearance, even the Snickers ad from last year that started the ball rolling are a far cry from "The Mary Tyler Moore Show," or even "The Golden Girls."

True. Then again, Hunter Tylo never had to deal with H. Wesley Kenney and Ed Scott, who I believe are the ones BD really couldn't get along with.

Like I always say: I'm willing to put up with a diva, as long as that diva (male or female) has the goods to back up the drama. Say what you will about BD, but she knew how to make viewers pay attention and keep paying attention everyday.
