TV Moms With the Most-- Part 1: Lucy, Sophia, Marge, Samantha and Shirley

From the Nay 9, 2021, Parade Magazine.

Credit to some of TV's most superlative Moms.

WACKIEST:  LUCY RICARDO

(Lucille Ball)  "I Love Lucy"  There is no length she wouldn't go to to get a laugh.

MOST SARCASTIC:  SOPHIA PETRILLO

(Estelle Getty)   "The Golden Girls"  With no filter, she let the good times roll with the insults she dished out.

MOST CARTOONISH:  MARGE SIMPSON

(Julie Kavner)  "The Simpsons"  She has always been with us on TV's longest-running scripted program.  She also gets the nod for HIGHEST HAIR STYLE.

MOST MAGICAL:  SAMANTHA STEVENS

(Elizabeth Montgomery)  "Bewitched"  One little twitch of her nose was all it took to put a spell on us.  And that poor Dr. Bombay.

MOST MUSICAL:  SHIRLEY PARTRIDGE

(Shirley Jones)  "The Partridge Family"  She made everyone have a toe-tapping day when she sand "Come On Get Happy."
