She was an exceptionally nice person very down to earth I can tell you she had a show on broadway quite some years ago that my Mom went to see, later she met Valerie in the lobby of the theater after the show ended and they she carried on a full conversation with her for about 20 minutes yes she was very down to earth.
I always have liked her. My dad told me once that he knew a lady that knew her. I wanted to have him talk to her and ask her to tell Valerie that i was a fan, but he said that the two ladies HATED each other, so that was that. Lol
Julie Kavner was the most successful financially over the years but she was brilliant. They are all so wonderful and it’s so sad a lot of the Rhoda cast now gone.
Gary Collins was gorgeous indeed, a true gentleman. This interview is absolutely beautiful 🤗 thank you for posting. They are all such talented sweet people. Me & Mum adored Rhoda, watched it every week in the UK. Such wonderful memories of happy times. 👩👧xx
Wow, Julie did an interview! She has not done more than a few over the years and has always been really private. I guess Harold Gould and David Groh couldn't make it that day.
G$8605 Exactly! I thought the same thing. She was looking forward to doing that show as we see in this interview. Who could have expected that the producers would try to do her dirty and they'd all wind up at odds?
The new series Valerie is referring to is probably the early rumblings of what became her third sitcom, "Valerie." It aired on NBC debuting in March of 1986.
Valerie is so beautiful . She is so natural and real. Julie is so beautiful and wonderful also. Nancy Walker is a gem! She is the ultimate Jewish Mother of all time! RIP Val and Nancy!!
Richard Cleveland Yep, at first I wondered why Julie was taking so long to mention she's doing The Simpsons when he asked her about any current projects she was doing. Then I remembered this interview is 1984. The Simpsons debuted on The Tracey Ullman Show in '87 & then got their own show in '89.
I believe Julie was a regular on Tracey Ullman, not just as Marge Simpson's voice, but she did a lot of the skits with Tracey and the other cast members.
Nancy Walker's comment "I don't know about 'stop and do it again'" sums up why I have no envy whatsoever for TV and film performers. It sounds like drudgery to me.
I guess I missed the announcement of Valerie's death Aug. 30, 2019. She was a fine actress and a brave woman. I wonder if she already had the brain cancer at the time of this interview. I noticed her right eye is askew. I thought she outshone even Mary Tyler Moore as she matured. RIP, "Rhoda".
She was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2009(she beat that) she got diagnosed with the cancer from which she died in 2013, she was told she had 3 months to live and lived till 2019
Rhoda was indeed a great show but not everyone liked it. Thankfully it ran for 4 1/2 seasons. People called her marriage to Joe a mistake but it wasn't. It was a plot point. She needed to experience 2 years of marriage so she could successfully return to what she did best - being single. Eventually, Rhoda did marry again...but we'd have to wait 22 years before we found that out!
people said that Julie Kavner and Valerie Harper never got on - Looks completely untrue there seemed a real natural and reciprocated affection between them
oh! so no matter how professional a voice-over artist character Carlton The Doorman sounded, he actually was of that calibre that does nuance dopily Canadian
Not trying to be mean or nasty at all but if I don't ask I want no this was years before she had the brain tumor does anyone know what's wrong with Valerie's eye on here I worked at night alot in those days so maybe I just never saw or heard....she is one of my favorite characters of all time i always loved me some rhoda
I like seeing Julie in interviews because it’s a rarity but I don’t like seeing her uncomfortable. It’s a shame to me a person can’t just be left alone . She really just wanted to act And people wanted more from her. I’m glad she found her niche in voice work. The lime light wasn’t for her.
Maybe she was already dealing with some illnesses. She looks like she aged 15 years here instead of just 6 from the last season of Rhoda in 1978. And i agree the hair nor the clothes were doing her any favors. She did seem somewhat scattered too like she was trying hard to concentrate but just wasn't at her best...
You came here and left this comment? Totally unnecessary. Those ladies brought so much joy through their shows. Obviously Valerie was not well even here and Julie shuns the media.
@@tbec3011 dare so you are right - we are all good. Its all so long ago and they are no longer with us. Have a great day. My panties are still intact and fine tyvm
Absolutely love Rhoda still watch it today. Heartbroken when she passed. May she rest in peace. 🙏🏻❤️🌟
Three of the four on stage have passed. RIP Valerie, Nancy and Gary
Nancy Walker was hysterical in Murder By Death in 1976
Thomas Timlin thank you. I forgot about that murder mystery. Clue was similar. Didn’t she play the deaf cook?
I forgot she was in that!!! Funny. :)
She was also funny as Sophia's sister on "THE GOLDEN GIRLS"
she must have been a really nice person because she is so warm and lively in every interview she is in
I met her in 2012 and I was just thinking that as I watched this for when I met her she was so real, down to earth, kind and so easy to talk with.
Valerie Harper seemed like the nicest person in Show Business!! I would have loved to have dinner with her & just be around her.
She was an exceptionally nice person very down to earth I can tell you she had a show on broadway quite some years ago that my Mom went to see, later she met Valerie in the lobby of the theater after the show ended and they she carried on a full conversation with her for about 20 minutes yes she was very down to earth.
Thank you Michael

Julie would have never guessed that she'd eventually earn a 100 million dollars doing the voice of a cartoon.
swampzoid really...a hundred million ...jeez
Yes Julie Kavner is a great catch!! Where can I find her?? 💰💰💰💰💰
Michael Arbassio good luck with that !
Yeah, starting just a few years after this interview.
Julie lucked.😊😊
Gary Collins was so gracious, and fine actor, himself.
Fine actor who portrayed a villain who cut off a man's foot with an ax.
Rhoda was a great show
Watching both Mary Taylor moore show & Roda before drifting off to sleep every night..makes me less worried & more happy!!
Julie Kavner was the most successful financially over the years but she was brilliant. They are all so wonderful and it’s so sad a lot of the Rhoda cast now gone.

I like his interviewing style a lot. He's informed about his guests and asks open-ended questions, calmly and respectfully.
I loved Julie Kavner in a movie where she was a nurse, "Awakenings."
Rhoda was my favorite on Mary Tyler Moore. Her and Georgette.
I loved watching Gary on "Hour Magazine." Love Rhoda too....
Very good interview. I have always been a fan of Rhoda.
RIP Valerie
Well said Valerie....about Julie! To me, Julie Kavner was the best actor on the set of Rhoda.
Actress. She's a woman.
The doorman sounds like the original voice of Garfield... and of course Julie Kavner
Lorenzo Music voiced Garfield and Carlton.
That was him, yes.
He was. :)
Nancy Walker was a very regraded Broadway star before Rhoda
For half a century, she went directly from her Broadway debut to MGM & making musicals with Lucy, Mickey & Judy.
I liked her Bounty commercials.
Rhoda is my favorite show ever. I love so many series, but this one is the best.
Wow, Julie did an interview! She has not done more than a few over the years and has always been really private. I guess Harold Gould and David Groh couldn't make it that day.
I really enjoyed the show.
2:06 awwwww, it sounds like nancy calls valerie "baby" ❤️❤️❤️
❤️
this was, what, two years before Julie Kavner started doing the Tracy Ullman show and began playing Marge Simpson?
I sure miss the show.
You can watch it on UTube
Valerie briefs us on The Hogan Family. Who would have known that 3 years later she'd be talking with lawyers again...
G$8605 Exactly! I thought the same thing. She was looking forward to doing that show as we see in this interview. Who could have expected that the producers would try to do her dirty and they'd all wind up at odds?
@@yolandagrady7232 But she won!
I heard she punched Sandy Duncan in the eye
She screwed up a good thing.

Lorenzo music was also the voice of Garfield
Oh wow. I didn't know that. Revelation of the 21st Century. I hope you're not the intelligent one of your group.

Ida’s dream come true! Great ladies!
Val such a nice woman. Will be miss.
A great show Rhoda very talented Rhoda and Brenda😁🇨🇦🇨🇦
Valerie is so beautiful . She is so natural and real. Julie is so beautiful and wonderful also. Nancy Walker is a gem! She is the ultimate Jewish Mother of all time! RIP Val and Nancy!!
Julie Kavner is the voice of Marge Simpson
Richard Cleveland Yep, at first I wondered why Julie was taking so long to mention she's doing The Simpsons when he asked her about any current projects she was doing. Then I remembered this interview is 1984. The Simpsons debuted on The Tracey Ullman Show in '87 & then got their own show in '89.

We know!
Great upload. thanks
Remember Rhoda the TV show

no she was not diagnosed till 2009 of lung cancer
She was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2009(she beat that) she got diagnosed with the cancer from which she died in 2013, she was told she had 3 months to live and lived till 2019
No one could outshine MTM.
This was so lovely! 😊
RIP Bob Barker
lorenzo music: voice of garfield the cat
julie always nice been working out at the bank bren
all passed away except for Brenda
Nancy Walker would have made a great Golden Girl.
Marge simpson!! lol
Rhoda was indeed a great show but not everyone liked it. Thankfully it ran for 4 1/2 seasons. People called her marriage to Joe a mistake but it wasn't. It was a plot point. She needed to experience 2 years of marriage so she could successfully return to what she did best - being single. Eventually, Rhoda did marry again...but we'd have to wait 22 years before we found that out!
Julie is really shy I can see how uncomfortable she is here.
Really? I don't see that at all!
people said that Julie Kavner and Valerie Harper never got on - Looks completely untrue there seemed a real natural and reciprocated affection between them
oh! so no matter how professional a voice-over artist character Carlton The Doorman sounded, he actually was of that calibre that does nuance dopily Canadian
...as opposed to Canadien/ne..........
1 of Valerie's eyes looked strange in this video. Maybe she was under the weather.
I saw that also. Her eyes her strange.
I noticed that as well
Not me. Didn't notice that at all.
Julie is also Marge Simpson
Not trying to be mean or nasty at all but if I don't ask I want no this was years before she had the brain tumor does anyone know what's wrong with Valerie's eye on here I worked at night alot in those days so maybe I just never saw or heard....she is one of my favorite characters of all time i always loved me some rhoda
Where is valeries New York accent?
Her right eye seems off too
I like seeing Julie in interviews because it’s a rarity but I don’t like seeing her uncomfortable. It’s a shame to me a person can’t just be left alone . She really just wanted to act And people wanted more from her. I’m glad she found her niche in voice work. The lime light wasn’t for her.
GOOD NEWS
Valerie ♥️ Julie ♥️
val could've had bells palsy or recovering from it at the time. im just guessing though People were commenting about her eye
1984
Rhoda and Marge Simpson
Aren’t Rhoda, Brenda and Ida Hollywood inverted males genders?
Valerie Harper looks terrible here. Something was up with her this day. She seems very unsure of what to do when Carlton rings in.
Such a pretty lady. The hairstyle wasn't doing her any favors, which I think made her look a bit off in this interview.
Maybe she was already dealing with some illnesses. She looks like she aged 15 years here instead of just 6 from the last season of Rhoda in 1978. And i agree the hair nor the clothes were doing her any favors. She did seem somewhat scattered too like she was trying hard to concentrate but just wasn't at her best...
I could not disagree more with any of you.
Y-A-W-N

@@hunkhk Nothing against the cast. I just found the interview to be a bore. No doubt some of the other comments put your panties in a wad. Lol

It sucked after the first 2 seasons.
