I remember an episode where I think it was Curt's sister sassing Mama. Is my memory correct?

This episode was initially shown three days after Valentines Day in 1977(February 17,1977)
It is called The Heartbreaker, It stars Linda Purl who made a guest appearance on the short lived
series Sons and Daughters three years before. At the time the episode was first shown I did not
realize this but I would come to wish she had chosen another name----Vanessa is the name of the
brides' sister whose wedding I attended in Portland, OR the first of 2008 and she is not ONE BIT LIKE
the Vanessa who was Curt's sister------LOL>

Actually, I think this was from the episode "The Spoilers". Linda Purl also played Alicia Hanover. The family that moved down from New York and were kind of high and mighty. Alicia did get sassy in this one and Olivia came back at her pretty firmly with "you may get away with that at home but don't you try it on me"!! or something like that. LOL I loved it.

Linda Purl did appear in both episodes and in neither one was she an exemplary character.

I remember that Lori... What series was that episode in? Livy set her straight and I have the same frame of mind Livy had.

Thank you!!! This is season 3 and exactly the episode I was looking for. ;D

I love both of these Linda Purl eps. She was a terrific actress but I haven't seen her in anything for ages.

I think Linda Purl appeared some on "Happy Days" and was a regular on "Matlock" in the show's early seasons. The IMDB should have info on what she's been doing recently.

She has been on Criminal Minds, Desperate Housewives and The Office during the past year. I have never
watched any of these episodes.
