What a shame she had such contempt for her character Vera. Sweet Vera, kind hearted beyond compare, loved her little pets, cared for everyone around her, not a mean bone in her body, what's not to love? Being the only one on the show not jaded and worldly was her gift. Wish I could meet a real life Vera.

I love watching Alice. I think my favorite episode of Vera's is when she let Belle move in, and Belle taught her how to dress and act sexy, and then brought her to Mel's to play poker. That episode is so funny. I think my second favorite episode is when she hosted the radio show after work, and all the guys went nuts over her voice, especially Mel. Great laughs. RIP Beth

RIP Beth Howland. You just cant create characters like "Vera Gorman" anymore in today's pc world without the "Special Needs Community" coming after you. Now, I don't advocate being cruel, and making fun of, or being mean or unkind to people with limitations, but something in our accepted format of comedy is lacking if we can no longer be organic out of fear of offending some group from not being politically correct. Political correctness is ruining a lot of things, beginning with comedy

She wasn't special needs and often proved that she was smart in situations. She was just a little, "dingy," meaning maybe not worldly or a little silly. But she wasn't special needs.

@@caseyl3789 I agree with you, she wasn't actually meant to be overtly portrayed as a "special needs" person. I never said her character was an actual "special needs" person, but she was portrayed as someone who was a little "dingy" (or an "airhead" etc...), and wasn't particularly smart and competent in her job (or at least that's what was implied). That was the crux of her character. She said herself, that at first, she didn't like playing that character, and it took her a little while to get use to it because people treated her like she was dumb in real life. They don't make characters like that anymore because of political correctness. They fear that whenever you make these over the top characters that seem like maybe they're a little "dingy", and maybe not the "sharpest tool in the shed"(ie maybe they don't have the highest IQ, or common sense etc...), you are perpetuating a stereo type, and promoting a type of comedy and a culture where people laugh at and make fun of those who aren't real smart, and the special needs community has complained about that. There were a lot of sitcoms that had characters like that in prior decades, ie Kelly Bundy from Married with Children, Woody Boyd from Cheers, Sofia Patrillo from the Golden Girls etc.... Now, they did have shows that did have actual "special needs" characters (ie Corky Fatcher from Life Goes On) there were also special needs characters on "The Facts of Life" and "Àmerican Horror Story" (I don't remember the names of those characters), but they put a different spin on that. The point is, they don't make characters like that anymore because it's no longer politically correct, and that's ashame.
