TV was another story. Big success there. The weird thing is most people probably still remember her more for those Polaroid commercials with Jim Garner. Those should have led to a romantic comedy with them because they had so much sex appeal and charisma between them in those :60 spots they could easily have the new Nick and Nora Charles in a THIN MAN remake or something…..wasted opportunity. You had a prolific and busy career anyway, Mariette, and you're still working. Happy birthday!

We see countless people emoting on television, in movies. We remember so few of them, even minutes after the screen goes dark. And then there are actors like Mariette Hartley–and Warren Oates!–that we can't take our eyes off, can't ever forget.
