What an awesome week. This brings me to the point of this post.
While we were driving to supper on Thursday night, I had a question pop into my mind. We were talking about someone who talks about his wife quite often. I heard about her for about two years before I actually laid eyes on her. For the longest time I referred to her as "Maris" (which made me laugh like crazy). This led me to thinking about the TV show Frasier. What a great show. They had a regular "character" on the series, that nobody ever saw, we never heard her voice. We heard lots of tales over the years, usually one-liners delivered by David Hyde Pierce with an absolutely straight face.
"Maris is pushing me over the edge which is ironic because she can't push. We learnt that the time she got stuck in the revolving door."

So my question for you TV trivia types. Has there been a "character" like Maris on any other TV show? A character that we never saw, never heard, but was a regular on the show.

The closest I can come to is on "Tool Time", the next door neighour, you would always see the top of his head, but never his face, but he did talk, because Tim would go and talk with him almost every show. But we never did see the man.
I got an email from a freind who says:
"On the British comedy TV show "Keeping Up Appearances", Mrs. Hyacinth Bucket has a son by the name of Sheridan. She talks to this son all the time on the telephone and brings him up in all sorts of conversations with other characters. But Sheridan has never appeared on the show."
Thanks k2
Why am I mixing up my "ie" words lately? Piece has become peice and friend has become freind. It's just wierd! or weird. Whatever!
