I'd have been more than delighted if I had a mother who'd come clean my house whilst I'm gone 😀😊😍😍🌺🌺🌺.
Oh so agree!!!
Me too!!
EXACTLY!
Ah yes, a mother to snoop into your private drawers, trying to find embarrassing or personal items, re-arrange all your things so you can't find them and you can't function. A mother to judge you, and covertly shame you, insinuating that you are dirty, lazy, and uncaring. A mother to tell you your life decisions aren't good enough. A mother to hold her "selfless" servitude over your head to use as currency to control and manipulate you with later.
They make manipulative, gossiping, controlling mothers look cute on Rhoda, but trust me, it ain't cute in real life. I'd rather just do my own laundry. It's much less of a heavy load.
Be careful what you wish for.
@@themaggattack exactly…
I think it's sweet N Nice of her to help clean. I feel bad for IDA in this episode. Her heart was in the right place. She was just lonely and bored.

30 years ago today, March 25, 1992, we lost the wonderful, funny, talented, Nancy Walker. RIP to a legend.
Loved Nancy Walker. Ida Morganstern was a character who used guilt to treat her children end make them do what she wanted.
I loved Nancy Walker - She was such an awesome actress!
She was a great actress..
Volunteering as a candy striper is a GREAT & very fulfilling job. I did it for awhile & I loved it. EVERYONE should try volunteering sometime. Great character builder.
I wish my mother had cared that much! (they have NOTHING to complain about!)
@Jeff di Giusto. Ida was an awesome mom!!❤️🙏
The hell they don’t! Although Ida definitely came from a place of love 💕
@@alpimarzi5501 You're the only one who knows what you're talking about, dipshit.
Nancy Walker just the best xoxo
I’d love to have a mom like Ida.
I really really love these old shows a whole whole lot
Me too
You do? Really? Really? Really?
Always watched Rhoda every Monday night. Loved her on Mary Tyler Moores show. I adored her on her own show. they don't make great comedy like this anymore! What a shame.
I love Rhoda!!!! ❤️
I asked my mom, a young teenager during WWII, what the Hut Sut Song is. She sang a little bit of it which prompted me to pull it up on RUclips. Now I can appreciate Rhoda's comment (21:38) about Ida having danced to it when she was a sweet young thing. The song reached #3 on the charts in 1941 when it was released.
I had two good friends in HS who were about Ida's size. They used to do the Lollipop Guild song and dance from "The Wizard of Oz" and it never failed to crack up everyone who saw it. Useless trivia, I know, but Ida always makes me think of those two precious girls who both died way too soon. She also reminds me of my late grandmother. Tiny, stubborn and very determined.
Not useless..great info for those of us that didn't catch it..
Great story, thank you for sharing 😀❤️
She could start a cleaning business. She make a fortune. Now days just about needs somebody a cleaning person.
I love both Rhoda and Mary
Being around Nancy Walkers age, I wish I still had my figure. She looked fantastic at her age
"My marriage is not in danger." Not yet!
This was a cute episode for once focusing on something other than their marital problems
I love Myrna's leather outfit at the end, and she looks great in it.
Still missing U miss Valerie Harper 👑🌟
I'm fallin asleep with Rhoda tonight!😊💕🌃🌉🌌😴📺
Me too!!
Oh my that scene when Valerie help her on to the bed is priceless..
There is no excuse fir Walker not receiving an academy award fir this role. Extraordinary acting.
You mean an Emmy, not an Academy Award, which is for film.
What a nice mom to clean their homes bc they couldn’t do it due to their jobs. How thoughtful
I thought the same thing. That's something my mother would have done.😊
My Mom was a hoarder. She would have brought clutter. But she did give me so much. Intelligence, humor, and a genetic propensity to hoard.
My mom died when I was very young. I would have given anything to have my mom. She would have done the same for me. She was always giving of herself.
Rhoda should have done it though, it’s her duty
My mother lives with us, and my house is always clean. That's one of the benefits of having my mother live with us as she gets older.
Anyone with someone like her inbtjeir life is blessed! Gets right to the point but with love!
Thank you for putting the air date.
Just love Rhoda. ❤. Before my mom would visit, I would clean. When I went to work, she would reclean. Guess my cleaning was not up to her standards. And she would snoop, she did that with my sister, snoop.
U were blessed
Nancy Walker, aka Ida Morgenstern, aka Rosie the waitress for Bounty, “the quicker picker upper!”
aka Mildred the housekeeper, McMillan and Wife
Yeeah!!! I always think of her getting tangled up in the phone cord. (McMillan and Wife )
I normally like this show. But the way they treated their Mother was the pits. Tho they did redeem themselves by apologizing to her.
I love the mom
Am sad now to watch this show and know she has passed away :(
If ever I’m in hospital I want Ida to look after me.
Ida would've been a funny mom to have, her wit is hilarious.I like Rhode and Joe's apt. but would hate all that clutter! I'm an organized neat freak.
Michelle Post See, l like the bric a brac, when it's tidy. My friend decorates minimalist and finds my 'retro stuff' maddening, but it's as close to returning to the 70's as l can get without a time machine.
Omg what clutter??
Feel free to clean my house
Hilarious. So funny when Brenda said her mom cleaned her lightbulb and peephole. Rhoda acts like she is a whiz at her job, but she must have gone out of business because she later works for Jack. I thought Ida was sweet, I never understood why Brenda and Rhoda had such ill feelings toward her. It was a great thing for Ida to be a candystriper. I always thought those striped pinafores were cute. Alot of housewives and retired women in cities did volunteer work, especially in the 1970s.
The cleaning was always for Ida to stay connected to her daughters as they aged but also a way to control them & to snoop. SOMETIMES SEEN AS BEING 'TO INVOLVED '.
Thats the only problem. You can't find a thing when someone else cleans.
I love ❤️ pickled beets.
My mother is basically a Protestant version of Ida.
I think my own Mom was the Irish Catholic version of Ida, that and she had hands like hams.
Ida and Rhoda were both Irish in real life...
It's never too late to finish high school!
Rhoda acts like she has a high powered career, with no time to pee. Ida is really pretty. I like her hair. Joe always seemed to like Ida. I thought it was awful when Rhoda and Brenda teased Ida for being a candy striper. They were not just teen girls, many were women over age 50. They did alot of shit work that was rarely appreciated, and for no pay. Ida could always get her GED.
As much as i love this show, I can't help thinking, that by 1974 or 5, when this show aired (and I watched every week) there was no way a little old white Jewish lady was gonna be riding the D train back to the Bronx late in the evening. And by this time, there were very few Jews left on the Grand Concourse anyway. There was a mass exodus in the late 60s and early 70s.
A parent like her is a blessing. They forever complaining on here
Nosy, controlling, bossy...but hidden by the "helpful" thing
No, thanks. I'll clean my own place--or not.
Classic tv shows like this are no longer made
If they were still made today, they wouldn't be classic. 😊
When nurses wore respectable clothes instead of the big huge scrubs with butterflies on them
I'm a nurse Josh and I couldn't agree more!!!
Ida the elf strikes again!!!🤣
Just pull the apron to the front, get some needle nosed pliers and pull out the knot! Don't cut it.
Nancy Walker was in a commercial.
Paper towels I think.
I’ll say this again like I’ve said on every Post. When the Producer fired Groh (Joe) He made a very BIG MISTAKE!! The Show went downhill real quick.. it went from an ALL TIME SHOW TO a real Klunker of a show in just 2 years!!! Very depressing!!
I used to clean my mothers house. What when wrong? I should have seen this episode years ago!
Miss these old shows life used to be good , now the country is falling apart
I always enjoyed these ;)
The feeb from MTM is in this episode.
You mean Rhoda? I always kind of liked her.
Ida's hairline creeps me out 😭😭😭
Rhoda & Brenda were extremely rude to their Mother.
I know. 😞
How could Ida be a teenager in WW2 and in high school when Rhoda was supposed to have been born in Dec 1941 which was the beginning of WW2
That’s right. Jeez. There are lots of inconsistencies in the writing.
@@revolutionaryviews9702 even in the intro of the first seasons she said she always felt responsible for WWII
But the war in Europe started in 1939.
@@josephpanzarella1417 Yes, but it wasn't at its "height"until 1943 or so... TV shows are notoriously bad at continuity.
This is a great slice of time role for Nancy Walker’s character. I’d like to put Nancy Walker and Rush Limbaugh in a bag and see how many pieces of Rush come out after Nancy is done with him.
😂
Rush was already dead when this comment was written. There were no "pieces" to make; his consistency was somewhere between vomit and diarrhea.
Brenda and Rhoda are mean in this episode! They demean Ida.
Where do you think they got it from. Although "mean" is too strong of a word. U sound hyper-sensitive .
Sandra Jovic Could be. Mean-spirited....sensitive, could be.
I noticed that, too. It seemed out of character for both of them.
GOOD SHOW ALONG WITH
MARY TYLER MOORE.
IN 2023, MOST OF THESE STARS HAVE SINCE DIED.
🙏.
I release my clutter to the Universe. I have everything I need and am full of riches.
@@sueb6662 Too bad it's pointless gibberish!!
And you spend your riches on Big Macs
Ida, in a cleaning jag person. I Wish I had somebody to clean my apartment.
💓
if they're both working, why don't they have a cleaning lady?
Exactly!
I worked 3 jobs had a baby and cleaned the house and cooked for hubby #1. Divorced him.
LOL
Ida is kind of a sh** disturber. She tries to undermine Rhoda's confidence in her marriage, get Joe to find fault with Rhoda as a wife, and criticize Brenda's housekeeping abilities. I just realized that Ida was not invited to Rhoda's bridal shower. Maybe the above are some of the reasons why. Her absence was never explained. Brenda did the invitations. Hmmm.
Typical of possibly a narcissist. I have a lifetime degree in that since my mom was a narc. They're not happy til they make everybody else miserable.
Joe's Character looks like Happy 's character in Iron Man, there's a resemblance between the both of them
i felt sorry for ida , i found rhoda and brenda insulting in this episode
tara lang Ida is pretty insulting overall.
Finally someone not falling down and kissing the characters ass.
They probably just weren't used to their mother working.
They cut out most of the opening.
I remember that the opening was changed . I believe it was shortened after the first season.
Obviously the will and grace writers stole the Myrna character and turned her into Karen... grace's sidekick at work (who never really worked) with the high, squeaky voice!!! They surly did!!!
As a woman-I strive to one day NOT wk!!!!! I married poor....😢
Love Ida's polkadots
LMAO....at 2:40....Ida's Prophecy---It doth came True.
The answer to partners in success, hire a part time cleaning lady and go full time when the moneys right👌🏾🦹🏾♂️
I think I’d is terrific and it was not a great moment for Rhoda and Brenda
Ungrateful daughters. 😞
Learning to be , proving to be what we always in our potential shines thru . Past the judgement of others even family housework came to be disdained by a generation. They forgot the training ground in all areas of Nessie city. 👌🏾🌷🦹🏾♂️💕
Rhoda's married life was so boring 😴
Funny show,
Weren’t all three lead characters gender inverted blokes?
Where is Rhoda's children? where's is Brenda's children?
They don't have children.
Such a doll..GOOD RID OF JOE
It's a pity the character of Joe is slowly slipping away from being the head of the family role. Blame the female writer of this episode. Then again it is Rhoda's show. Everyone wanted to see more of the main character otherwise it wouldn't have been popular.
Not good sit home.
