Happy Mother's Day: A Celebration of TV's Best Matriarchs

at .

It's Mother's Day for moms everywhere! And we do mean everywhere. Like in the land of television.

From Donna Reed to Peggy Bundy, we've regularly welcomed TV moms into our living rooms, sometimes wishing we could trade places with their fictional TV children, if only for a single episode. 

But we can't do that because this isn't Pleasantville, so the next best thing to do is tip our hats to the lovely ladies who've graced our sitcoms and our dramas over the years, remembering fondly the sage advice they doled out through our television screens.

And after we scroll through this gallery of the 13 best TV moms, we'll go hug our own mothers, right? Right. We'll totally do that.
