[Dr. Shoe]

This episode parodies the American TV sit-com Alice which ran from 1976-1985 on CBS. The show is based on a movie called Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore. The show is about the lives of several waitresses who work at a place called Mel's Diner on the outskirts of Phoneix, AZ. They wear pink uniforms and one waitress named "Flo," played by Polly Holliday, sports a beehive hairdoo.

Far from it. I just really love this show and I spend a lot of time thinking about it. You don't even want to know how my mind wound its way into figuring out the stuff I posted on this thread but I'll tell you it began when I started contemplating Kelly's Beehive hairdo. Thank God this forum gives me an outlet for my ridiculous hobby!

Well, I for one am thankful for the interesting trivia bits you provide for us, Dr. Shoe! A lot of these things goes unnoticed for us outside the US.

Anyway, I give this a 3.5. Fair episode, could have needed a little more of Al.

[Dr. Shoe]

I watched this one again last night and I think its a 5. I love this bit:

Al: So, pumpkin, you always thought you were meant for something more, didn't you?
Kelly: Yes
Al: Me too. But we weren't. (chuckles)

You realize Kelly is her father's daughter and she's gonna gonna be stuck in the workaday slog along with him.

4 stars from me.

Love the scene how Kelly serves the food in the first place (pure chaos), and her naughty teacher

Dr. Shoe: Very interesting information, thanks for sharing!
