Ferrell starred in all twelve seasons of the show, and remained on after Charlie Sheen's controversial departure from the show. Prior to 'Two And A Half Men', Ferrell had starred in a number of well-known TV shows and movies, mostly in guest starring roles or supporting characters.
Most notable of these was in 'Mystic Pizza', where she starred alongside Julia Roberts and a pre-fame Matt Damon as the owner of the titular pizza place. Ferrell also had supporting roles in the likes of Tony Scott's 'True Romance', a key scene in '70s satire masterpiece 'Network', and even turned up in 'Edward Scissorhands'.
an absolute sweetheart
a consummate pro
a genuine friend
a shocking and painful loss.
Berta,
your housekeeping
was a tad suspect,
your "people"keeping was perfect.
