About Alice
Alice ended on March 19, 1985, after its ninth season on CBS. The show was a comedy series that aired from 1976 to 1985, centered around Alice Hyatt, a widow who moved to Hollywood with her son after her husband's death. She worked as a waitress at Mel's Diner, where she interacted with a colorful cast of characters, including the gruff owner Mel, the flirtatious Flo, and the shy Vera. The series depicted her life and struggles as she pursued her dream of becoming a singer while managing her responsibilities as a single mother. Set in the 1970s and early 1980s, Alice was based on the 1975 film Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore. It explored themes of resilience, friendship, and everyday life through humorous situations and character-driven stories. The show was known for its relatable portrayal of working-class Americans and the camaraderie among the staff at the diner.
