RIP Betty White

RIP Betty White (January 17, 1922 - December 31, 2021)

Here’s a 5 minute remembrance of Betty White via NPR.

White was best known for two characters: The first was Sue Ann Nivens from the Mary Tyler Moore Show. White called the character "your sickeningly sweet neighborhood nymphomaniac."

And then there was the naïve Rose Nylund on The Golden Girls, whose greatest disappointment was losing her hometown's Butter Queen pageant due to "churn tampering."

White often played characters that seemed innocent on the surface. But underneath, there was something mischievous, even sexual going on.

Hosting Saturday Night Live, she dropped double entendres during a spoof of NPR called "Delicious Dish," joking that "my muffin hasn't had a cherry since 1939."
