The episode was titled “Mary’s Big Party,” and it aired March 5, 1977, on CBS, two weeks before the sitcom's long run ended for good.
For the 1977 dinner party, Mary has a worse problem: the power goes out in her apartment, and she can’t find any candles or working flashlights. When Carson finally arrives, everyone is still in the dark. The late-night legend’s voice is heard in the final scene, but he is never shown on camera.
Carson said the episode was ‘fun’ to film
On his late-night show the following Monday, Carson confirmed it was his voice in The Mary Tyler Moore Show episode. Not only was he credited on IMDb for the rare cameo (he previously appeared as himself on episodes of Here’s Lucy and Columbo), but he reportedly joked to his Tonight Show audience that when he filmed the scene, he read from “glow-in-the-dark” cue cards because all of the lights were out.
Carson briefly mentioned his cameo when Moore appeared on The Tonight Show several years later, as he praised her for her work on the show.
