In each episode's opening titles, a neon-like outline of a smiling Mimsy the Cat takes the place of the "O" in "Hour." The "U" and the "R" make up her body and tail.

* Sad Show ...

While we loved Mary Tyler Moore as Laura Petrie and Mary Richards I personally did not like her Mary McKinnon character. This Mary was a rather stuck-up self-centered "I'm the star! Kiss my ***!" type. The episode where got angry at has-been comedian Benny (Howard Morris) making a comeback on her show for ad-libbing to get laughs during a sketch showed this Mary as extremely cruel and disrespectful.to a kindly old man seeking to get laughs during a comedy sketch. Sorry, but we the viewers just could like this Mary persona. After this Howard Morris episode which had this viewer feeling sorry for the man and despising the star I never again tuned into it.
