    Man, if they had ever done a live action Hey Arnold, she would've been perfect for Arnold's grandma. She has the same manic energy.

    I love the fact that her role was so memorable that eventually in the musical her character had been reworked to have a bigger role.

    I love Ellen Dow, and that she led a lengthy career well into her 90s. Her rapping in "The Wedding Singer" always makes me crack up. 😅

    Cold Case is my favorite show, and it was cool to see the rapping grandma from my favorite movie in it

    God, she was on every TV show in the 80s and 90s. I remember her from Golden Girls, and of course, the Wedding Singer.

    First of all, Ive been following Brandon here on RUclips for a number of years. From your impressions to No Small Parts. Secondly I believe her long life could be credited to work. She obviously enjoyed it, and purpose I believe extends your life.

    Delightful story, I always love the looks at these familiar faces with unfamiliar names, and how each one has a life and a story behind it. Makes the world feel just a little bit smaller in a wonderful way.

    The first time I saw her was in a show called “Maybe It’s Me.” She pretty much played the same character she always had but she played the role of grandma with a lot of rizz very well. Then I remember seeing her popping up in a lot of tv and movies. She’s one of those character working actor you see everywhere and smile in delight because you recognize her from a small tv role.

    I know Patch Adams is kind of problematic, but Ellen Dow was iconic as the lady who wanted swim in noodles

    It's really unfortunate that there was no mention of her role in 'Patch Adams' alongside Robin Williams... Pool o' NOODLES!

    What a husband! I do not mean to discount her and her talent, because obviously she is the talented star. However, to see a husband of an such an older generation be so supportive of his wife's career and fame - even if she wasn't A-list, Brad Pitt level famous, she WAS famous. With many men in today's generation pushing the red pill nonsense, and women-are-wives-and-mothers BS (she also never had children, I just hope this wasn't because she couldn't), it's refreshing to see a man from that time period be more forward thinking than many of the men today.
