The character of Murray
About 40 years ago, when the Mary Tyler Moore Show was in its heyday, I was taking a television course in college, and when the MTM show came up in conversation, I remember our professor referring to Murray as "Murray the mouse." I always thought of Murray as more of a dreamer - if you remember in one episode, it shows Mary with Ed, Ted and Murray (separately) as lovers - and it shows Ed as a very old man, Ted as blowhard Ted, and Murray as kind of an impractical dreamer who was writing a book that no one would read. What do you think? Would you characterize Murray as a dreamer, a wimp, or as something else?
