TVLand has announced that Betty White will have a featured role in their new sitcom, "Hot in Cleveland," starting in June.
At the same time, Lorne Michaels gave in to a Facebook campaign, and, in response to half a million petitions, booked the 88 year old Ms. White to host SNL on May 8.
Which gives me 20 years to achieve sufficient notoriety to match her accomplishment.
But then The Betty White Show debuted on radio in 1949, when she was 27 and I was seven.
She was 27 and I must have been about 11 when I first began seeing her on TV in Los Angeles. What a lengthy career.
