You can't make a rainbow without a little rain.
What TV legend played Helen Hunt's mother on Mad About You, Marcia Cross' mother on Desperate Housewives, and Jane Lynch's mother on Glee?

I haven't seen the other two shows, but I'm pretty sure that Carol Burnett played Helen Hunt's mother on "Mad About You".



Angela Lansbury, Marlee Martlin, Cynthia Nixon, Carol Burnett, Ellen Burstyn, and Robin Williams all received Emmy nominations for guest appearances on what long running NBC drama?

I think all of these people had guest appearances on at least one of the "Law & Order" shows, but I'm not sure if they were all on the same L&O series. If I had to guess a specific show, I'd guess it was probably "Law & Order: SVU".



On a similar note, what 90s series received Emmy nominations for guest stars Robin Williams, Lily Tomlin, Gwen Verdon and Charles Durning?
"Homicide: Life on the Street"
