AFAIC anything that gets Bloodworth-Thomason's singular voice back on TV is a net plus.

 

Her editorial in THR about Moonves and how all the female stars and shows were taken down in the halls of CBS just brings it home - how many essential stars, comediennes, creatives did we lose from the mainstream current of popular culture in the last 30+ years because men drove them out? We only know a handful of stories since Weinstein blew up, like hers, like Annabella Sciorra, Illeana Douglas, etc. And how many more in the century before that? It is a cultural wound. And it can be slowly rehabilitated.

She's my age. My parents said that I was absolutely obsessed with Barbara Mandrell and The Mandrell Sisters when I was little. I would sit right in front of the TV and be dead silent for the entire show, just staring. I especially loved the flashbacks to the younger versions of themselves.
