I had our library order S1 MTM and was really looking forward to viewing those eps again. I remember really enjoying it back in the 70s.
Maybe it was just the early eps, or maybe my perception was off, because this time through, they all seemed so sexist! I was really disappointed, and the girls didn't like them at all. They were all about Rhoda and her needing/wanting dates...maybe we just didn't hang in long enough?
Did you watch the entire season? I think the way Rhoda was portrayed throughout the series was sexist. But then I also think she served partly as a foil to Mary, who dated but wasn't hung up on catching a man. And Rhoda also had constant pressure from her mother to get married, IIRC. I really need to watch again, because I some of my memories of the show are probably skewed or just flat out false.
