Suzanne Pleshette, the husky voiced dark haired television wife of Bob Newhart has passed away at the age of 70. You may remember she played Bob Newhart's wife on the original Bob Newhart show. She was also involved in the final episode of Newhart's next series simply called Newhart. Bob played an innkeeper in Vermont. In the final episode of Newhart Bob wakes up in his bed beside his tv wife from the first series Emily (Pleshette) in the same bedroom from the original series and says to Emily: "You wouldn't believe the dream I had about being an innkeeper in Vermont." For those of you who remember this I believe this was the best final episode I have ever seen. Sheer genius!!

Too bad, I liked her. And, I agree that ending was sheer genius!
 
RIP Suzanne.

The Newhart Show was great. Bob's dry humour struck a cord with many viewers.

The ending to that show with Suzanne back was one of TV's better endings.

Sure as hell beats the dreck they put on today.
 
If anyone wants to see her, there is a great movie, Support Your Local Gunfighter on at 11:30 tonight on TCM. Worth the watch, not as good as Support Your Local Sheriff, but a good watch.
