@kittygrrlhk ...back in the day, I remember watching the originals as they aired...

I thought Vera(played by Beth Howland) was attractive. I didn't think Alice(Linda Lavin) was sexy, though in retrospect she had an alright body.

@cheeriosinabowl LOL @ worn out mattress in a cheap motel. THAT was Flo! As for Alice, she was sexy. The problem was when she TRIED to be sexy it always backfired. Sexy Alice was as bad as old truck stop, lot lizard Flo.
PS: Remember Flo's short lived spinoff?
PPS: Ive seen Polly Holliday in other shows, without the orange beehive wig and too much make up and she is hotter than July!

... yes Polly was perfect for that part on the show, for sure. Yep, she did come across as an old whore, worn out like an old mattress in a cheap motel. She is the type of woman you'd expect to ss serving tables in a greasy diner. No, Flo wasn't sexy to me either. Tough old boot. Alice was far better in the sexiness dept.

@cheeriosinabowl True. Very true. Flo was an old, washed up whore. She got on my nerves. Never thought she was sexy. Eww.
(No disrespect to the actress, Polly Holliday. Polly played the part very well)

@MrCzechers Agreed! the first edition to David Shire's song, with its heavy studio echo/reverb gives it that unique, almost impossible to duplicate soul.... its like the James Bond Theme in Dr. No, never have they ever again been able to recreate that magic.

@JizumChrust mine too....grandma dolly was her name...
-
Flo's line: "Kiss my grits!" was overdone, way overdone. Got sick of hearing it from her whiney voice.
Otherwise, cool show.

@dktillie She did.
When I was a kid, Flo reminded me of my grandma, she served in a diner and had tall hair except she was a brunet.
