Last week the news came through that Allyn Ann McLerie had passed at the age of 91. An accomplished stage and screen actress, she might be most memorable for her television roles, chief among them (at least on this blog) Carmen Carlson on four episodes of WKRP in Cincinnati (with a return appearance on The New WKRP).I think she’s fairly underrated, and I could go on for days about her. Instead, I’ll direct you to my appearance on episode 28 of the Hold My Order, Terrible Dresser podcast (and accompanying minisodes 1, 2, and 3) for a good primer on Allyn (as well as a discussion of season three episodes “Real Families” and “The Baby”). -- source link
