15 Things You Didn’t Know About ‘The Mary Tyler Moore Show’

11. An Activist Got Mary To Switch Apartments

Mary’s Victorian home on North Weatherly in Minneapolis is one of the most well-known settings in TV history. Of course, these shots were achieved in a rather subversive manager as the show’s producers told the homeowner that the shot’s would be used in a documentary. Naturally, the home’s owner wasn’t cool with the popularity her house received via exterior shots featured in the show. Fans would show up at all hours of the day and night to take pictures and ask for tours. When she heard that cameramen were coming to shoot some more exterior shots, she hung up “Impeach Nixon” banners to dissuade them. In season six, Mary Richards moved to a high-rise.
