Bonus Video! All of the amazing actresses who almost played Ursula
Added 2024-08-04 15:25:05 +0000 UTCYou would not BELIEVE some of the actresses they considered for Ursula in The Little Mermaid, and for this week's bonus video we're taking a look at some of the most surprising. Mrs. Garrett from The Facts of Life?!?!?!
Also -- take a gander at Pat Carroll (who eventually landed the role) in this amazing appearance on The Merv Griffin Show, with a bonus appearance by some young up-and-comer named Patti LuPone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFEdZjhFtiw
And Charlotte Rae in The Worst Witch -- I hope this is what Agatha All Along is like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivylLFuaY0w

I also saw her play Mrs. Meers in "Thouroghly Modern Millie" at La Jolla Playhouse. She was incredible. I wished she would have recreated the role on Broadway. She was one of my favorite character actresses. I had the wonderful opportunity of playing Ursula at one of the local Theater companies here in San Diego, had a blast!!! Oh, and I love "Honey I'm Homo". I read a chapter a day to my partner, he loves the story time hour, as we call it. Great book!!
