Lou Grant is a fictional character played by Ed Asner in two television series produced by MTM Enterprises for CBS. The first was The Mary Tyler Moore Show (1970–1977), a half-hour light-hearted situation comedy in which the character was the news director at fictional television station WJM-TV in Minneapolis.

In season four opener " The Lars Affair ", Phyllis clashes with the man-hungry hostess of WJM's Happy Homemaker show, Sue Ann Nivens ( Betty White ), following Sue Ann's affair with Lars.
