Naomi from Mama's Family looks haggard and unrecognizable

Leave her alone--Vint just died.

Let herself go??? Honey. She was never there.

She didn't look half bad before.

I bet you will look like shit in 30 years too.

I didn't even watch that show, and I immediately recognized her from that photo.

She played Chad Lowe mother on Life Goes On - a very rare dramatic performance for her, being the on-screen mother of a son with AIDS

She's 71 years old, you fat whore!

That's what 71 looks like.

Not hardly r7.

I think her main issue is senior rosacea, which is generally genetic-based and can be exacerbated by being in the sun too much or certain food/drink.

Yes hardly, if you're not in Hollywood.

Wasn’t the Opal character rather campy on AMC? Guess it’s a testament to Lyman’s talent she won two Emmys for it.

No way is she 71, she's 59.

That could be Uma Thurman in five years.

She's 71. She was 40something and playing it in the 80s during AMC.

It's 30 (plus) years later, bitch!

Let me look like that when I'm 71, Jesus.

R15 blow it out your titty bag!

She's just needs a little makeup.

Wasn't that show like 50 years ago?

Carol Burnett was. The syndicated series was in the 80s.

She has crusty lips.

Didn't we do this exact thread about six months ago? Same photo and everything.

I think Scooter looks great.

Her skin aged horribly.

When she won her Emmy for All My Children, she said I only have only four women to thank

My mother, Kim Delaney, Agnes Nixon and Jacqueline Babbin (AMC Executive Producer)

Why didn't she remain producer and director of The Nanny?

R25 she did it for 3 years - directed 75 episodes - you need to move on

Lizard lips.

Really?

I'm amazed she looks that good at that age.

She looks okay to me. Could use a little chapstick maybe, but otherwise more than fine for her age.

Dot Lyman was excellent in THE DEPARTED

Stay pressed miss OP!

She shoulda worn more sunscreen when she was younger.

R26, I can't handle this, how in the world can I let go from this??? I need to know what happened!!!

She looks fine, but that's the price she paid for those beautiful, tanned shoulders. I think of her every time I see women wear those peekaboo blouses.

She's 71 and has no make-up on in that photo, nor is her hair styled. Two hours in the chair and she would look just fine.

If you think Dorothy Lyman looks rough without make-up, you should have seen Mary Tyler Moore without make-up. She was unrecognizable until she painted on that beloved face.

She always looked like the Cowardly Lion on Mama's Family

Naomi's voice got higher as the show went on and she lost her original tough as nails attitude.

We did, R21. I thought this was that same thread until I saw the dates. Anyhow, I do think it's kind of great that we have a Dot Lyman Troll here on DL.

She was also on The Bold and The Beautiful as Joanna Johnson's mother.

She is an accomplished playwright as well.

That is what too much sun does to you. But she really doesn't look bad, she definitely needs to find a new hairstyle though. That alone would improve her 50%

Mama would be angry at Naomi for letting herself go. "Naomi what have you done to yourself? Have you no self respect?" But by the end of the show Mama would have understood and accepted it and everything would have been ok."

Put her on The Cool Kids, Mama!

She just lost Vinton . Poor girl is all dried up , and it's spread to her face.

R8 please learn English.

"not hardly" - good lord

Yes! She needs to be on Cool Kids

Her ex-husband is gay. she herself may like the ladies.

Oh, dear.

That's an old picture of her from December 2007, so she was 60 there. That's a rough looking 60. She obviously spent a lot of time in the sun with little or no sunblock when she was younger.

She looks a little better in more recent photos where she's wearing make-up to cover the sun damage on her face.

Her last daytime soap role was on Days of Our Lives in the 2000s as a Countess of all things!

She was gunned down in Princess Greta's wedding massacre on DAYS

She was on the TV series FBI last night.

r42

Oh I bet the neighbors are just LOVIN' this.

Her face looks fine, she just shouldn't have appeared in public without makeup and nice hair or a nice wig. She looks like she could still clean up good enough.

She looks like crap!

She needs a pulsed dye laser treatment to target the blood vessels in her skin. My dermatologist could help her.

She needs more of her 80s hair.. to hide her face.

Turning 70something doesn't mean you have to completely let yourself go.

She didn't look that bad in the Mama's Family bonus interviews on the DVD's.

I wish Dot had done more porn

Good for her

Did Scooter's pussy stink?

[quote] Not hardly [R7].

Apparently, R8 thinks she'll look like a shiny Hollywood actress far into her 80's.

I'm still shiny, R62

I'm grateful to her !!! Thanks to her I beer , and sometimes tequila, in my chili :D !

I loved the chili contest episode of Mama's Family :D!

Pancake makeup would cover her blotchy skin and then her face looks very much the same as it's always been. She'd look fine with a good quality makeover.

Uma Thurman was on Mama's Family? I didn't realize she was that old...

She's a friend of a friend. Very intelligent.

R67 = Dot Lyman
