Sally Struthers is an American actress best known for playing Gloria, Archie's and Edith's daughter on All in the Family. She first appears in the Season One episode, "Starvin' Marvin".

Background[]

When the government authorities mistake Cartman for a starving African child and send him to Ethiopia, he discovers Sally Struthers is hoarding snacks in a small building. As the episode progresses, Sally eats more and more food and eventually becomes huge. Kyle erroneously states that Sally Struthers was on Full House.

In the Season Three episode, "Starvin' Marvin in Space", she eventually appears to look like Jabba the Hutt from the Star Wars movies.

She is also referenced in the Season Nine episode, "The Death of Eric Cartman", in an incident referred to as the "Sally Struthers Incident", which of course is referencing the episode, "Starvin' Marvin".

She returns in the Season Fourteen episode, "200", where she is back to the way she was in "Starvin Marvin". She is frozen by Joseph Smith in the following episode, "201".

Appearance[]

She is obscenely overweight in "Starvin' Marvin" and "201" and she resembles Jabba the Hutt in "Starvin' Marvin in Space".

Trivia[]

  • Sally Struthers was said to be a fan of South Park until her portrayal in "Starvin' Marvin", which she was very upset and offended by. Despite this, Matt Stone and Trey Parker have not said they have anything against her personally. When asked about her, Trey Parker responded, "Oh, she's alright. Sally Struthers isn't really a bad person, she's just a ripe person for jokes. Dude she sets herself up for it. It's like, 'Just do voiceovers', you know? Because she's fat. Because she's enormously fat and she's standing in front of a bunch of really skinny, starving people going, 'Look at these poor kids'. You're going, Dude, 'Give them some of your pie.".[4]
  • In the Latin American dub of "Starvin' Marvin" she was dubbed as Shelley Winters, a famous actress of the Hollywood Golden Era.
