In Memory of Suzanne Pleshette


Actress Suzanne Pleshette died yesterday at the age of 70 at her home in LA,less than a year after she lost her late husband,the brilliant comedic actor Tom Poston,who was her costar as well when she was on The Bob Newhart Show as Bob Newharts TV wife.In the famous final scene of Bob Newharts series "Newhart" Bob has a dream and wakes up next to Pleshette in an identical bedroom set to "The Bob Newhart Show".Ironically both series starred Tom Poston!MY favorite Pleshette roll was that of Dean Jones onscreen Daschund fanatic wife in "The Ugly Daschund",whose home and life are sent into a tailspin by the rather large Great Dane pup her husband brings home from the vets office.One of my alltime favorite Disney movies!!!!!!She also was a costar in "The Birds" and her fast acting role was a guest appearance on "Will & Grace" as a recurring character.One of the most beautiful and talented actresses of her era.
