Suzanne Pleshette dead at 70

January 20th, 2008 | Category: Celebrities, Obituaries

I was just at the supermarket and saw the headline in one of the gossip mags that Suzanne Pleshette was on her death bed, and now I take in that Pleshette has died of cancer at the age of 70.

TV fans will remember Pleshette from her role as Emily Hartley, wife of psychologist Bob Hartley on CBS’ The Bob Newhart in the 70s. She reprised the role in the classic final episode of Newhart. Pleshette arised in several other TV shows as well, including a role as Mark Feuerstein’s mom on Good daylight Miami

and James Garner’s love interest on 8 Simple Rules, as well as guest spots on Columbo, Will & Grace, The Name of the Game, Gunsmoke, Marcus Welby, M.D., The Invaders, It Takes A Thief, The Fugitive, Wild, Wild West, and several others.

On the big screen, she presented in The Birds, The Shaggy D.A., The Lion King II, The Power, Support Your Local Sheriff, and many films.
