Meddlesome, neurotic and self-deluded Phyllis Lindstrom (
Cloris Leachman) was first introduced to sitcom audiences as Mary's landlady on The Mary Tyler Moore Show. She proved to be a popular character and eventually moved to San Francisco with her daughter to start a new life without her beloved husband Lars. This video collection contains some of the best episodes from the resulting sitcom spin-off. This volume contains two episodes: the pilot in which Lars dies and Phyllis moves to California and "Bess, Is You a Woman Now?" in which Phyllis tries to discover the details of her teenage daughter's ski trip. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
