R.I.P Bonnie Franklin (Ann Romaro from One Day at a Time)

[FrackleFan2012]

I'm so sad to announce that Bonnie Franklin, who's mostly known for her role as Ann Romaro from One Day at a Time, has passed away from pancreatic cancer at the age of 69.

In memory of her passing, watch this appearance by Bonnie Franklin on an episode of Shalom Sesame.

A bunch of us were discussing this yesterday. One Day at a Time was a great show (one of Norman Lear's most underrated), Valerie Bertinelli was quite a hottie, but some of us absolutely HATED the theme song.

But Bonnie and company addressed a lot of the hot topics of the day in a way that hit the mark, without being preachy or schmaltzy when they were later attempted on Diff'rent Strokes or The Facts of Life.

That's all true. The world is completely different without Bonnie.
