my god she's gotton fat over the years.

@creamyfilling102 First of all, that is not nice to say about anyone. Secondly, this interview took place not too long after she gave birth to her second child. Your body changes after having kids. But have you seen her lately? Watch the videos of her at the 2009 and 2010 Big Brothers/Big Sisters Galas. She lost weight and looks fabulous. Especially for someone who's going to be 60 years old this year.

@MorkandMindy333 Good on you, sister! :-)

@TheComedianne Thanks.

@MorkandMindy333 I have always loved Mork & Mindy. In later years I really got like Pam Dawber. Sad to say people do gain weight.I'm not being mean, but now in my 40's I noticed I gained weight.Since the start of last year I've taken the subway diet, lost 11 pounds so far, I am focusing on creating cartoons & writing & just being positive!

[MorkandMindy333]

@ifyoucatchmydriftbud Good for you!! That's wonderful. Good Luck to you. I hope you have a great New Year.

Pam Dawber fat? I don't think so. She looks great.

@MorkandMindy333 Thanks for the kind words! I would like to add however, this was really a funny interview & to me Pam Dawber looks very slender.

I met Garry with my Mom (Actress Bond Gideon) a few years ago in his Burbank office.. Garry gave her a shot on Blansky's Beauties series with Scot Baio and Nancy Walker. While the show was not a hit she eventually was on Operation Petticoat (Lt Claire Reid) and Jill Foster # 2 on Y& R for a while. Garry is one of the nicest people I met in LA while out there for six weeks and I want ot thank him for being supportive of my Mom and me. TTT
