Ed Asner’s Death Leaves Just 1 Cast Member of ‘Mary Tyler Moore Show’ Alive

Tributes continue to pour in following the death of Ed Asner, who played the irascible Lou Grant on “The Mary Tyler Moore Show.” He was 91. Like Mary Tyler Moore, Asner won seven Emmy Awards and appeared with Moore in the 1969 Elvis movie “Change of Habit." His passing has resulted in Betty White becoming the sole surviving cast member of the iconic sitcom. When the show said goodbye after seven seasons in 1977, cast members gave each other a giant hug.
