Mary Bradford symbolized teenage lesbianism in 1976.

I’ve been obsessed with the mysterious details of her death since 1988.

by Anonymousreply 4July 23, 2020 10:28 PM

Sorry but I really don’t want to watch crazy YouTube videos about this. I thought she ODed. What’s so mysterious about that?

Was it suicide or was it foul play? Could ABC executives have been behind it?

She always suffered from anxiety and depression, and she said so publicly. So it was sad, but not a big surprise.

Out of all the siblings on Eight is Enough, I thought she was the most relatable. She was a good actress.

R8 she was apart of the silent lesbian on tv movement.

I always thought LaRue on Gidget was also a silent TV lesbian.

The most famous silent tv lesbians were Cagney & Lacy. EVERYONE knew they were bumping holes.

She and Jeri Jewell look like sisters. (Jeri is a lesbian!)

Guys! Sexy Don Grady from “My Three Sons” is her brother!!! I had no idea.

Who were other silent lesbians? We all know about Velma from 'Scooby Doo' now. What about the roles Kaye Ballard played? And could Alice from 'The Brady Bunch' be included?

Move along, people!

I guess one could say, when it comes to Vicodin...eight is enough.

Zelda from "Dobie Gillis" is the Queen of silent TV lesbians.

I'll bet Susan Dey STILL hasn't commented.

Was she murdered?

Dang it, my file of Clifton Webb's grocery list got corrupted, so I can't share.

Zelda (Sheila Kuehl) is now an LA County supervisor.

LA Co. Supes are widely considered among the most powerful, non-presidential elected leaders. There are only five of them and each controls hundreds of million dollars in spending.

R13, Nancy "Miss Jane Hathaway" Kulp

If she had married Wynonna Judd, she could have been Lani Grady-Judd.

by Anonymousreply 24July 24, 2020 2:18 AM

Wait. Why was she O’Grady, but her brother was Don Grady? Their real last name was “Agrati”.

Was being “Irish” that much better than being Italian? This is cracking me up.

by Anonymousreply 25July 24, 2020 2:20 AM

r25 That is really odd. I could see her going with Grady, as Agrati sounds like the noise you make when you are about to barf, but adding the O' seems random, unless there was an actress already going by Lani Grady.

So where the fuck was Dick Van Patten when all of these "kids" in his acting family were swirling the bowl? (And Betty Buckley was snorting the scenery?) Did he try and help them out only to get the finger, or did he not lift a finger to begin with?

I wonder how his son that is married to Eileen Davidson is doing with his oh-so-gently alluded to gambling addiction now that she isn't making the money she used to?

Why yes, I do wonder a lot of stupid shit. I've mentioned before that I blame this fucking pandemic for making me stupid , though who am I kidding?

The 70's drama "Family" was silent lesbian central: Meredith Baxter, Kristy McNichol (two actual dykes) AND Sada Thompson (big-time silent dyke vibes), all on the same show! They should all have their Emmys taken away, because they weren't fooling anybody!

by Anonymousreply 27July 24, 2020 3:33 AM

R27, I have the best gaydar in town, and I must say that Meredith Baxter Birney had me fooled completely!

Shit howdy, nothing silent about that lesbian!

No. Lani o Grady was the ultimate silent lez.

You mean "was" her brother. He dead too.

Born Lanita Agrati.

I’m assuming Agrati is pronounced similar to O’Grady. Maybe the clerk at SAG misspelled it and she never bothered to fix it

by Anonymousreply 33July 25, 2020 11:48 PM

It was too bad that “Eight is Enough” didn’t delve into LGBT issues. Mary Bradford was definitely a lesbian. It would’ve been great if she brought a girlfriend home, and announce to one and all “I’m a lesbian, deal with it. If not, fuck off.” Since Mary was loud, bossy and opinionated, they wouldn’t dare incur her wrath.

Electra Woman and Dyna Girl - not so silent Sisters of Sappho.

Lani O'Grady was also really good in the film Massacre at Central High.
