LOS ANGELES, March 1 (Reuters) - Actress Bonnie Franklin,
who starred as the harried single mother of two teenage girls on
the 1970s and '80s television comedy "One Day at a Time," died
on Friday at age 69 due to complications from pancreatic cancer,
the CBS network said.

Franklin, a petite redhead, was best known for her role as
divorcee Ann Romano on the show, which debuted in December 1975
and ran for nine seasons on CBS. It co-starred Valerie
Bertinelli and Mackenzie Phillips as her two head-strong
daughters.

That just leaves Valerie Bertinelli now, right? Aren't all the other two already dead? :unsure:

RIP, Ms. Romano. :(
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

I think Mackenzie Phillips is still alive, but is a total fucking burnout. :hmm:

Isn't she claiming she was abused or some such shit? Like I believe that.

She's still alive and wiki confirms that she does small film and tv spots here and there.

I saw Valerie on a Nutrisystem ad not too long ago.

Seems that everyone that does a Nutrisystem ad drops about 40 pounds then puts it right back on.

Speaking of weight loss ads, I wish terry Bradshaw would drop dead.
