RIP Cloris Leachman (1926 - 2021)

Comedy legend and Muppet Show guest star Cloris Leachman has died.

Leachman was inducted into the Television Academy Hall of Fame in 2011, earned 22 Emmy nominations, 8 Primetime Emmy awards, and a Daytime Emmy Award.

Two of her statues were won for playing her most iconic role Phyllis Lindstrom on The Mary Tyler Moore Show and its own spin-off Phyllis. 

In 2006, Leachman won an Emmy for best guest actress in a comedy for playing Malcolm in the Middle's cranky grandmother Ida. 

Leachman also won an Academy Award for The Last Picture Show, and appeared in the Mel Brooks comediesYoung Frankenstein, High Anxiety and History of the World: Part I.

She will always be beloved my Muppet fans though, for guest starring in the second season of The Muppet Show (where the pigs took over show and replaced all the non-pig Muppets with pig versions) and as Miss Tracy, Lew Ord's secretary in The Muppet Movie. 

Cloris Leachman was 94.
