Underrated TV mom!

I'm watching the tribute marathon right now and she was such a good TV mother but didn't get the proper credit for it because it was overshadowed by the lawsuit that she had to endure.

I really appreciate what she brought to the show and I hope everybody else watching the marathon does as well.

When her character died on the show The Boys barely expressed any sadness about it. But she was so devoted to those little brats they should have been crying every other freaking episode.

Kevin can wait was similarly heartless about when they killed off the TV mom in that show too. Nobody seemed to give a damn, out of sight out of mind.

I recall they were sad at least in one ep, it wouldn't have made for great sitcom viewing if they were in constant mourning! I think also the show runners would have known they had to act quickly if they wanted to keep the show going. I preferred Sandy over Valerie.
