TMZ is reporting that legendary comedic actress Betty White has passed away just short of her 100th birthday.  :\'(

Her breakout comedic role came in 1973 when she played Sue Ann Nivens on "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" ... which ran until 1977, and then she got her starring role in "The Betty White Show."

With 115 acting credits to her name, Betty had roles in productions like "Life with Elizabeth," "Date with the Angels," "The Love Boat," "Mama's Family," "The Golden Palace," "Ladies Man," "That '70s Show," "Higglytown Heroes," "Boston Legal," "The Bold and the Beautiful," "Pound Puppies," "Hot in Cleveland," and many, many, many other shows and films.  8)

NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

She was supposed to hit the BIG ONE-ZERO-ZERO!  :\'( :\'( :\'(


So sad. The world has lost such a beautiful soul.

Damn, just right before her 100th birthday. Condolences to her family, may she rest in peace.

Whether at 99 or 100, Betty White had a long, distinguished showbiz career and was loved by all who knew her. She will be missed.  :\'(

A true legend.  Although she had already been around far longer, I recall in the 60s Betty White was always around on game shows and hosting TV parades. That kind of thing. She was a household name, but when she got the unexpected role of "Sue Ann Nivens" on the Mary Tyler Moore Show in the early 70s, she turned heads and her career went through the roof. She was recognized as an actress rather than a "television personality". Everybody got a kick out of it because people didn't expect sweet, parade-hosting Betty White to have such a saucy role. Nobody can ask for a longer, more successful career (and life) than hers.

She was a legend.  And was the longest living cast member of The Golden Girls and the Mary Tyler Moore Show.  She kept right on kicking some serious ass until the very end.

My thoughts exactly. :\'( :\'( :\'(

Just seventeen days too soon.

Really disappointed she won’t see 100 :( I heard she was in good health and spirits just a few days ago…

So sad to hear this - she was terrific and will be greatly missed    :\'(  :\'(  :\'(

R.I.P. Betty White

I'm so sad, I thought she would live to 100, It's upsetting that all 3 members of The Golden Girls are now deceased.  :\'(

Along with Herb Edelman.

The news really sucked to hear, and especially on the last day of 2021 when basically everyone thought that she was gonna be a centenarian. But she'll also remain a true legend forever.

Yesterday I was just reading a magazine about how she feels about turning 100 years old. :\'(

Larry Storch of F Troop fame is one year and six days away from hitting 100.  8)

I heard there is a campaign going for people to donate to their local animal shelter/rescue origination on January 17th (Betty's 100 birthday) in Betty's name-even if it is only $5. Even though I already make a monthly donation to my local Humane Society, I will be making another donation.

My introduction to Betty White was Mama's Family.  I loved that show, and then I would see her as a panelist on several 80s game shows including Super Password and the $25,000 and $100,000 versions of Pyramid with Dick Clark.

Don't forget Richard Mulligan and Harold Gould

My first introduction to Betty White was as Sue Anne Nivens on the Mary Tyler Moore Show, in case anybody is wondering I used to watch the reruns on TV after it ended.  Then on Mama's Family which also introduced me to Rue McClanahan, and then The Golden Girls and Golden Palace.
