There have been items about Meredith Baxter on a lesbian cruise and photos of her and her girlfriend. It was only a matter of time. Our favorite TV mom and star of salacious Lifetime movies just came out of the closet on The Today Show and Dish got a little choked up. She was articulate, vulnerable and courageous. The more people are truthful about themselves, the better off we all are. I wish I could be part of The Family but I'm not! This doesn't mean I can't scream from the rooftops that everyone should be able to get married and adopt. Even though it's no one's business and who cares, maybe other narrow-minded people who've always loved her will still love her and finally open their eyes. Maybe there will come a point where no one will feel the need to come out. It won't be a big deal. (like in Europe)If LMN doesn't strategically air her excellent movies (especially the one where she plays the cheated-on wife who then shoots her husband) this weekend, I'll eat my own hair!

J.J. Has Loved Meredith Since "Bridget Loves Bernie" Hit The Airwaves For One Season In 1972! Not To Mention Nancy Maitland On "Family" & Her Most Delicious Portrayal Of Betty Broderick In Those 2 Television Films!
I Love Her Even More Now!!!!
What's "Family Ties"?
Betty Broderick! That's the name I was looking for. I ADORE those films and she was BRILLIANT! Might have to put on Amazon wishlist!
I realize those of a certain age might not know "Family Ties" but it was her big show in the 80s, the one she was most famous for! It made Michael J. Fox into a star as well.
I don't know .. I find her to be such a non-story, although I'll avoid the "wanna be" label. I mean, 3 husbands, multiple kids, nearly 6 decades, and oh, ah .. yeah, I'm a muff diver, by the way. It's a little hard to digest. But, I wish her well with her contractor.
As it turns out, she's writing a book. I'm so jaded now.
