Oh Yes, She was seen too much in season one. Then there was a episode about her Birthday???? Who the hell wanted to see that?

She was a scream especially when she slammed Louise. But Louise can hold her own against her as well. Frankly I liked that Louise much better than the snobbish one she became in the later seasons.

What got to be too much on The Jeffersons was Tom and George's friendship. I did not like them as a comedy duo on the show. The Willis' and the Jefferson's together made good comedy but the men alone was idiotic.

Yeah the friendship of Tom and George made me want to change the channel.

She never did try to get along with Louise. She didn't care that she was her son's wife.

That's because she felt George could do better than Louise.

I didnt like Mother Jefferson. I mean what does she have to complain about? Her son owned Dry Cleaner stores and lived in an awesome apartment. Not only that, why was she always mad at Louise? Its not like she cheated on George or spent all of his money.

We never really had "large doses" of Mother Jefferson, so to me, it's not really something any of us had to worry about. She'd pop on, deliver a few lines, usually kissing up to George and putting Louise down, then disappear until the next episode.
