''Lou Grant'', a spin-off drama from the comedy show ''Mary Tyler Moore'', opens with Grant relocating to Los Angeles, to work with as City Editor with an old buddy, Charley Hume, who is managing editor of the fictitious ''Los Angeles Tribune'', His subordinates at that time included staff reporters Joe Rossi ([[Robert Walden]]); Billie Newman ([[Linda Kelsey]]); her predecessor, Carla Mardigian ([[Rebecca Balding]]); and photographer Dennis "Animal" Price ([[Daryl Anderson]]).  His assistant city editor was Art Donovan ([[Jack Bannon (American actor)|Jack Bannon]]). Charlie Hume was now his boss, who ultimately reported to publisher Margaret Jones Pynchon ([[Nancy Marchand]]).  They, like those back at WJM, became his family. In the last episode of season one it is revealed that he has just turned 50, a continuity error from ''The Mary Tyler Moore Show''; he would have turned 53 in 1978.<ref name="Birthday" /> There is one character on ''Lou Grant'', reporter Rosenthal, who is mentioned frequently but never seen.<ref>{{Cite web |title=DVD Talk |url=https://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/review/70611 |access-date=2024-04-04 |website=www.dvdtalk.com}}</ref> ''Lou Grant'' was cancelled after the star, Ed Asner, publicly protested U.S. interventions into the politics of Latin American countries.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2017-10-22 |title=Edward Asner |url=https://interviews.televisionacademy.com/interviews/edward-asner |access-date=2024-04-04 |website=Television Academy Interviews |language=en}}</ref>
