She looks like a tiny Linda Carter.

Yes, she does.

I wish my legs looked like hers did. {{{sigh}}}

Me too! In 1959, she was what, 22? Playing serious rebel-without-a-cause type characters on TV. Meanwhile, Tom, almost 40 at the time, was a comic actor on the Steve Allen Show. Talk about opposites attract...

It seemed to me she had beaten the cancer, from what I would hear every now and then. But, that’s what I thought about Gilda, too. *sniff*

Didn’t know they were married.
May God welcome and take you home Suzanne.

Maybe that’s where Gary Larson got his finale from?

70 is a pretty young age to go these days... RIP
She’s together with Tom, too soon tho..

Both of you are right. RIP, Suzanne. I was a college student when The Bob Newhart show was on and I thought she was the coolest married woman I'd ever seen.

In 1965 she made a film, A Rage to Live that had the tagline "The names and places didn't matter . . . only when!"

The film ran along with the whispered rumors of Suzanne being a nymphomaniac. Which matched the images my teenage brain abounded with in those days! There was a scene where Suzanne wore a clinging white dress that showed her million dollar, world class derriere!

All I could find was this... Italian version poster.

Whenever I think of Suzanne Pleshette, that image flashes into my mind! Along with that honey of a voice of her's-- Whoa momma!

Night, dear Suzanne... You shall be missed.

During the Newhart days in the 1970’s I had a mild crush on her as an ‘older’ woman.

“She was also in one of the James Garner movies...Think it was “Support your local sheriff”...”

It was SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL GUNFIGHTER

They were both in a movie called "Mr. Buddwing". I think I was one of the only people that saw it.

I saw her once on a talk show where she was seated next to Don Rickles. He made some sort of insulting joke about her sex life and she managed to successfully put him down with one comment. But her comment was bleeped out and I've been wondering what it was ever since.

"Better than the alternative."

If one is saved, the alternative is the goal. This life is just a vapor. Eternity in heaven with Jesus, now there's where I want to be when I'm called home.

I loved her in everything I ever saw her in. She was unique. There are so many in Hollywierd who are just so so, but Suzanne was a special talent and a real beauty. It came so naturally to her. Thanks for the memories Suzanne.
