  • Actresses Lydia Cornell and Deborah Van Valkenburgh discuss their nearly three-decade friendship and share tales of Tinseltown survival at the retrocentric celeb convention The Hollywood Show on July 18, 2009, in Burbank. The "Too Close for Comfort" stars disclose their experiences working with TV father Ted Knight in an industry that tacitly states that young, beautiful actresses should be seen thin and voluptuous and not heard. Now an outspoken political blogger/radio host/writer, Cornell-who once naively crushed on co-star Jm J. Bullock- also shares her views on gay marriage.

    Lydia seems very smart and modest person and its sweet how she was intimadated working with an icon like Ted Knight from the classic mary tyler moore show...young starlets today seem so obsessed with themselves and would probably be fighting with the older stars of the shows for the limelight

    I would LOVE for a real Too Close For Comfort to be produced. I don't know if it could work without Ted Knight or the mother character. But Those 3 could do something for sure. With the same characters. I miss the character of Monroe's goofy persona. If you want more Jim J. look up my videos of the Jim J and Ann show.

    @scvandy3129 4 года назад

    I'm a decade late coming to this video, but because I enjoyed the show and liked the cast I definitely wanted to watch this. Notice I say watch; the sound is SO AWFUL half of what's said can't be heard. And since the person asking the questions is doing it on the fly , i.e., with inane comments and questions, there's nothing to hear anyway.
    A theoretical question for the videographer: Why go to all the trouble to attend the Hollywood Show, get permission to interview on site the "Too Close for Comfort" hotties -- and not hold the microphone closer to your subjects? And obviously NOT do some research so you can ask intelligent questions? Show them AND your audience some respect. This was embarrassing. Not EVEN amateur hour.
    The women were SO patient. If it wasn't for the camera and the world of social media NEVER letting a film / digital clip die, EVER, one or both of these actresses would have said after 90 seconds of awkwardness: "This better get better -- or we're done.."

      What about "guys who like Deb more than Lyd because she looks more natural and less made-up or because they're unaware of the extent to which *nonphysical factors* like body language, voice, personality etc... influence their perception of physical attractiveness??? I'm all for calling out virtue-signalling if that's what it is. Think it over.

I liked Deborah better in The Warriors, and although she was very pretty, Lydia was sooo sexy (and still is) she slightly overshadowed Deborah at times. Just my opinion. They're both beautiful women...then and now!
