If you notice in most of the scenes it's either Vera or Mel standing in between Flo and Alice. By Season 4 the tension between Linda Lavin and Polly Holiday is evident on screen. God knows what it would've been like off screen!!!

@Dennis Mc laurin Linda was jealous that Polly's character of Flo was more popular with the audience than Alice. Flo had the funnier lines and was far more believable and likeable than the Miss Goody two shoes, sanctimonious bore that Alice was. This made Linda's blood boil as the show was named Alice, and she was the star of the show. I would have called the show Mel's Diner and fired Linda Lavin. Mel and Flo made the show.

@@robertmesk6310 She should not have been though. Often the lead character is less funny then the more animated co-stars. Taxi, Cheers, Barney Miller and countless others are examples in which the lead is less funny but is still the center piece in which the other characters revolve. I could add Seinfeld to that list as well but Jerry was pretty funny. I wonder if Ted Danson or Judd Hirsch were ever jealous of characters like Norm, Frasier, Woody, Carla, Louie, Rev Jim, or Tony. I think Linda Lavin just had some insecurity issues. I do agree the show was better with Flo. I mean no disrespect to the two that came after her but we got used to Flo and her "Kiss my grits".

Thanks for making these compilations. Not sure if there are any missing from the first three seasons, though I know at least two are for Season 4, as they were on Antenna TV (Northeast Pa.) earlier this evening. :-) The one when Flo gets jealous over her trucker friend's female partner, and the episode when Tommy talks about his elders on TV (Eve Arden even tells Mel to "Kiss my grits" at episode's end. hehe)

Changed from Kiss My Honeydew to Kiss My Grits, because producers thought it was too racy sounding. I thought Polly was way older than what her age was on this show It’s like she looked older than her age back then and then looked younger than her years when she became elderly or something
