Joanna Cassidy

Also great in Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead.

She’s still gorgeous, and she was one of the most beautiful actresses of the 70s and 80s. I was always surprised she didn’t have a bigger career. Loved her in ‘Buffalo Bill’. She was married to a hipster doctor in the 1960s and hung out with all the groovy people like Janis Joplin.

"I'm right on top of that Rose!"

she's great in Hollywood Wives

Her pussy stinks.

It's funny there's a thread about her, as I've been watching all the seasons of SFU On Demand, lately. She is great as the narcissistic, neurotic, shrink mother of Brenda and Jeremy. No wonder they're so screwed up. Great series!

That's DL Fave Joanna Cassidy to you OP.

Her Zhora from Blade Runner is a GAY ICON.

I have been confusing her with Holland Taylor ever since the Sarah Paulson relationship started. Thanks for clearing that up. They are similar types.

You are not the only one [R8]! They look like sisters. Joanna also auditioned for the role of Charlie Sheen's mom on Two and a Half Men!

For r7:

R7 I was just going to say that! Joanna Cassidy in Blade Runner is an ICON.

Interesting! They are celebrity doppelgangers.

Interestingly enough - they just interacted on Twitter today because someone suggested they should play sisters.

Let's get them BOTH on AHS.

She deserved an Emmy for playing crazy Margaret Chenowith on Six Feet Under. What a fantastic performance.

And let's talk about Ms Cassidy in The Late Show with Lily Tomlin and Art Carney. Great movie!

She plays a similar out-of-touch mother character on "Odd Mom Out" on Bravo, and as in everything else she does, she practically steals the show.

I used to mix her up with Mary Frann who was on the Newhart show

She had a lush, Julie London-like beauty.

Met her in the 6FU years and found her to be somewhat chilly.

I've heard she's a lesbian, but have no idea if it's true.

You should have offered her your wrap, r20.

According to Wikipedia she was married for 10 years to a (male) doctor. They divorced in 1974 and there's nothing further about her personal life.

Well, of course, I'd be the kid sister.

I am always distracted by her strange skin tone. Kind of reddish/brownish/ruddy/sun damaged even when she was young.

R16 - The Late Show is one of my all-time favorites!

I always confuse her with Joanna Gleason

I always confused her with Jack Cassidy.

I always confuse her with Gabby Hayes.

Great actress, beautiful woman. Always makes her characters more interesting. Loved her in Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

Codename: Foxfire !

I get her mixed up with Linda Gray.

Joanna as "Zora," in Ridley Scott's "Blade Runner" -

Pauline Kael was an admirer; thought she had a great womanly quality. A real dame.

How anyone could mix her up with Linda Gray or Holland Taylor is weird. She was a great big beautiful amazon of a woman - sexy and straightforward. Nothing dithering or falsely feminine or passive aggressive about her presence. I think Johnny Carson dated her briefly between wives. She's totally his type. One of them. Super cool chick and a Hot bitch. Great laugh. Good Actress. Not too smart.

R15, the Tranquility Spa scene really is her best scene in the series, and that’s a high compliment considering nearly every scene she had was entertaining.

She’s fabulous on Odd Mom Out.

She really has range! Iconic as futuristic robot hooker Zhora from Blade Runner and sweet but tough broad 1940s wife Dolores in Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

R34, she always seems intelligent on the screen to me. Almost cunning. One of her best attributes.

Her dad was Monte Hall of the original Let's Make a Deal.

[R39] No Girl, You are thinking of Joanna Gleason!

My younger heterosexual brother says she is the inspiration for his preference for older women. He was about twelve when he saw her showed her boobies in Blade Runner.

She's no Joanna Barnes.

"the Tranquility Spa scene really is her best scene in the series."

No, her best scene is at her husband's funeral, when she tells her brother-in-law (who just delivered the eulogy): "You said what you had to say, now get the fuck out of here."

J'adore

She always reminded me of Sharon Stone, but older.

Longest TV opening ever!

Longest TV opening ever!

She played T’Les, mother of T’Pol, on Star Trek: Enterprise.

LOVE Joanna with our Lily and Art Carney in The Late Show.

"Your car's a toilet and you are the attendant" Lily to Bill Macy

Gonna watch it now!

She looks like Candice Bergen's prettier, feminine-looking sister in OP's pic. I saw Ms Bergen in some ghastly movie last week and she looks like a butch old man with a bad haircut now.

Since we're sharing, she reminds me of Joanna Kerns. The hair, the name, but I'd never confuse them.

She was my grandma on Six Feet Under.
