Rhoda is a sitcom which ran from 1974 to 1978. A spin-off of The Mary Tyler Moore Show, it was a vehicle for Valerie Harper as Mary's former room-mate Rhoda Morgenstern. The character returned to New York City and to her family.

Muppet Mentions[]
- In the second season episode "The Party," Rhoda's married friend Susan says last week she was watching The Electric Company without the kids, and it was too hard for her: "I had to turn back to Sesame Street."
