Whipped Cream Difficulties

I feel like everyone is aware of Charlie Kirk. For the historical record, here’s an archived version of the NYT obit.

I don’t mean to give the man short shrift, but I also really have nothing of significance to add.

Polly Holliday. She had a considerable body of work in theater in addition to her TV and movie work. THR. NYPost.

Other credits include “Gremlins”, “Homicide: Life on the Street”, and “All the President’s Men”.

I got to wondering about this yesterday, and then a short time later someone else asked me the same question: is anybody from “Alice” still alive?

Linda Lavin, Vic Tayback, Beth Howland, and Philip McKeon are all dead. But Diane Ladd, who replaced Polly Holiday for (roughly) the season after she left, is still alive. (She was also “Flo” in “Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore”.) Celia Weston, who replaced Diane Ladd, is also still alive.
