The director and producer spoke to People at the Peabody Awards on Sunday in Beverly Hills, California. Brooks reflected fondly on his time with Mary Tyler Moore, sharing “she never pulled rank. Ever. Ever,” and saw herself as “a member of the cast.”
The only time he remembered Moore upset was during the finale of the series. The episode, “The Last Show," aired on CBS on March 19, 1977.
In the final episode, everyone at the station is fired, with the exception of TedBaxter's character. The employees (played by EdAsner, GavinMacLeod, and BettyWhite) each get an opportunity to say goodbye to one another. Moore’s goodbye was overlooked and not written.
After seven years working on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, finding Moore's final words was “a hard thing to come up with.” Luckily, they eventually “got it just right,” Brooks said.
Mary Tyler Moore died in 2017 at 80 years old. She was an actress, producer, and activist. Her role on The Mary Tyler MooreShow was groundbreaking, becoming one of the first series with a strong, independent female lead.
