Bernice Forman is a recurring character on the FOX comedy That '70s Show. She is portrayed by Marion Ross.
Biography
It is unknown when she was born, but since Red was 49 at the beginning of the show (1976) she was probably born between 1897-1902. She only appeared in three episodes in the first season, and during all those episodes it is shown that she has a difficult relationship with Kitty, constantly criticizing her. Her dislike of Kitty stems from the fact that Red was dating a very wealthy woman, but he married Kitty instead. She died while Eric was driving her to the airport. His last words to her were: "I don't think being nice for a whole day would kill you." and then she dropped dead on Eric's shoulder. Eric feels incredibly guilty about this but at the end of the episode he works it out.
Besides Red she has at least two other sons, Marty Forman, whom Red doesn't like because he constantly wants to talk about his and Red's feelings. Her third son is named Jerry who is much more successful than Red.
