The coolest thing is Ann B Davis (Alice) was the wholesome glue that kept those kids out of trouble on set. Its why you never heard of them getting in serious trouble..In essense, she was the real life Alice.
Florence Henderson was pretty motherly too. It was the actor who played Mike that could be a problem as he thought doing a family sitcom was beneath him. However, he did get closer to the kids as the show went on. Even taking them out on his boat during weekends,
@@Brandon-lw1wx Robert Reed even took the kids to The Globe theater to see Shakespeare over a summer hiatus. He was a classically trained theater actor, I do respect that...
A very long time ago! When I waited tables around 1980 or so we didn't automatically give the customers water, but if they asked of course we gave it to them.
Alice was such a great actress she'll be sadly missed. When Alice said to Mr foster these are the Brady's he said marvellous and these are the customers perhaps I should arrange a time for to spend more time with them all day if you get the point.
Impatient customers and a jerk as a boss. She's only at the table for 20 seconds assisting six young customers with their orders when the boss tells her to speed things up. A short time later a customer barges into things when he can see she's waiting on a table. A thankless job. She then walks out, leaving the boss with no waitress and for the customers to make their own food. There's also a safety hazard in the restaurant. There was a stool between the front door and beside the booth the Brady kids were sitting at, that Alice just happened to pull in front of the booth to sit with the kids. Customers could have easily walked into it and fell. Personal injury lawsuits from this could bankrupt the place.
3:04 is he talking about firing her? Because if he is, then that would kind of make his question "Where do you think you're going?" odd. Suggestively, she agreed to the termination. I kind of wonder what their fruit cup looks like. A cup with different fruits in it? Or one of those mini cups with the juice inside and peelable cap?
So this is where they got the idea for Geoffrey quitting on Fresh Prince cause Carlton and Will tricked into thinking he won the lottery by a pre recoded VHS tape
Robert Reed refused to be in this episode because of issues he had with the script. Luckily they found him working in a diner and convinced him to come back
Nobody acts like that. This is Hollywood fabricating situations. At least they were given some life lessons in these episodes. TV shows don't do that no more. But nobody acts like this. I have never seen anybody act like this? Be it the boss or the customer?
Theres six people at that table. It is supposed that the customer across the room cannot hear their conversation. How does the customer, or the boss for that matter, know she isn't busy taking six peoples' orders? Kind of bad writing.
Never like this episode. the kids had already experienced what is was like without Alice so you think we would’ve thought about the way they acted when she told her mom what they did
Alice should not be changing the children’s orders. They are the customers and it’s her job to let them order what they want. Also, she was fat-shaming Marcia and Cindy by saying that the caramel-fudge sundae would make them gain weight. NOT GOOD!
Stop and think about it for a moment. Alice altering what they chose was done 100% to show how she knows and she cares about each kid in the family. She's not just being an a$$h0le. It proves that she loves them and wants what is best.
I don't need the love, hell don't even need the appreciation. Ill take just being recognized. Saddest part for me is Im the damn owner. My employees treat me like the big bad wolf and do their best to avoid me. I figured since my being there was such a burden for them Id just stay away. So now my daughter deals with the day to day and I just sit at home bored out of my freaking mind. Even my own daughter asks me why Im there when I stroll through the door. Can you believe it?
Ann B. Davis got a standing ovation , at the TV Land Awards. I am so glad they gave her a special award, before she passed away. Alice was probably the most loved character on any sitcom, ever. (Mary Tyler Moore would be a close second. )
The restaurant manager didn't seem to realize that the Brady kids were customers, too. She appeared to be the only waitress on duty, she could only handle one order at a time and there were six of them ordering food.
@@rn6710 It's TV land. When you movies and TV shows, you are entering into a fantasy world. What about Married With Children? If Al Bundy was that poor, there is no way they would be living in a house like that. It's impossible to support a wife and two kids on a shoe salesman's salary.
Alice just took that guy’s order in the blue shirt and he was automatically expecting his food. What was he expecting a pop-up meal? This wasn’t a fast food restaurant. The boss was also a jerk. The Brady kids were customers too.
@@Brandon-lw1wx I DID watch the clip and I did not see ANYWHERE where Alice took the order of the other table, nor where the guy in blue asked specifically for their order to be brought to them...Can you supply me with a clip where Alice DID take the order of the guy in blue or where he asked for their order to be delivered...?
Very unprofessional manager! You don't admonish an employee in front of guests! It's embarrassing and inappropriate! If she was taking too long at a table or blatantly slacking off by sitting down, he should have asked to talk to her, pulled her aside, and then firmly instructed her to stand up and get back to work.
I agree first of all I would help second of all the six kids have their right to order and ask questions. I mean, I’m gonna get to you when I get to you. I gotta help these people out.
Genuine and authenticity are two words you hear a lot lately. Especially on social media. Folks are really thirsting for it. So much so they’re willing to project it onto scripted sitcoms, respectfully
I guess they were short on actors. On Three's Company, there was one actor who played a restaurant owner, a dentist and a psychiatrist. Same actor, three different characters.

As a kid we first thought the tv show 'Alice' was about Alice from The Brady Bunch. Only we thought that Flo was Alice because of the similar hairstyle.
@@ChargerBullet Did you ever see the movie that inspired the 1976 sitcom (the drama/comedy/romance "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore")? It won Ellen Burstyn (The Exorcist, Requiem for a Dream) an Academy Award. And the actress who played Flo in that movie, the wonderful Diane Ladd, would play Belle on the sitcom "Alice" after the character of Flo was written out of the show (actress Polly Holliday got her own show, "Flo", which quickly failed) but Ladd didn't even last a whole season because she supposedly didn't enjoy being on the show.

Ann B Davis was so good, her timing and expressions are great: ''Passing by??" then her expression, at 1:07.. then ''That's interesting, you all go to different schools"! She was totally on to them

"Too much caramel fudge sundae makes too much Marcia."
I always loved that line. 😂
😹 You couldn’t get away with that line anymore, body shaming
I guess they share the same outfit with the guy that says miss do you mind. Watch Davy Jones the producer is wearing the same outfit! Lol
I´ll use it for me. Too much chocolate make too much Laura.
Ann B Davis was the BEST and so loved on this show.
Yes, she was. She and Maureen were my two favorites. I loved them both. May Ann B. Davis rest in peace. Peace.
She was good as the truck driver in the 90s Brady Bunch movie too.

What are you talking about those kids were wild.
@@nicoleackerman205 Off set defiantly. On set, it was a different story.
I would’ve told Mr. Foster and that customer off. Alice was like a grandmother to the kids. Such a great episode.
That was Mr. Foster. Mr. Phillips was Mr. Brady's boss.
@@snake9911 oh that’s right. lol 😆 my bad! I will edit it
@@tonyrehal218 Don't worry. I wasn't meaning to correct you. A lot of people get mixed up with characters on shows like that.
Season 4 goodbye Alice hello😊
That boss should chill out.
Now Mr Foster will know how it feels to deal with rude customers
Fun fact the same people who are in a hurry will also take their sweet ass time deciding.
Too much caramel sundae makes too much Marsha - fruit cup for you chubs.
This scene still makes me cry 😢.
Feel good factor is always high with the Brady Bunch. 🙂
I remember watching the Brady Bunch as a kid.
The show would not have been so good without Alice.
we’ll have Cindy to tell blue suit to cool it
Do you know what I just realized remember TV show documentary about biography book of Life story ture life movie all about the Brady bach movie made
Back when they automatically served you water before you order.
I know, right?? I remember those days...
A very long time ago! When I waited tables around 1980 or so we didn't automatically give the customers water, but if they asked of course we gave it to them.
Every diner I've been to has given water at the start without us asking for it. Nicer restaurants, not so much.
Some restaurants still do that actually
@@Mr_Belt1 Not the ones I've been to.
Alice was such a great actress she'll be sadly missed. When Alice said to Mr foster these are the Brady's he said marvellous and these are the customers perhaps I should arrange a time for to spend more time with them all day if you get the point.
We must have watched the same video
I love Alice, too.
I think Alice was my favorite adult character in the series.
they missed Alice bossing them around, ruining their otherwise fun and carefree childhoods. 👍
And ratting them out. Supposedly a few years after the show ended Bobby had a drinking party and Alice sang like a canary to the parents
That’s funny, Alice is working in a diner
Alice's Kitchen!
She should have gotten a job at the butcher shop her boyfriend owns
Ba dum cha!
Imagine if she bought it, Alice's restaurant. And a guy named arlo Guthrie came in and was hit with a song idea....
@dave1135 that's crazy 🤪
Obviously, Mr. Foster needs to hire additional waitress'! One is not enough for super impatient customers!
Foster did the best he could for that restaurant and don’t you ever forget it
Alice told them to kiss her grits
That Mr foster was a mean, mean guy.
I thought I saw every Brady episode and I cannot remember this one
Alice looks good in pink.
Of course Jan doesn't know what she wants.
Jan wasn't wearing her glasses 🕶️
Leave Jan alone! 😫 She's the "special" one.
My favorite episode ❤
I hope she got a raise and an extra week of paid vacation time.
Love this episode.
Yes she was
At first I was thinking where's Flo and Vera?
Flo would've said "Kiss My Grits" to the customer and her boss.
She went from a live in job, with decent accommodations to having to pay rent, on waitress tips? Smart move.
Impatient customers and a jerk as a boss. She's only at the table for 20 seconds assisting six young customers with their orders when the boss tells her to speed things up. A short time later a customer barges into things when he can see she's waiting on a table. A thankless job. She then walks out, leaving the boss with no waitress and for the customers to make their own food. There's also a safety hazard in the restaurant.

Customers could have easily walked into it and fell. Personal injury lawsuits from this could bankrupt the place.
We’d all like to be Alice at least once in our lives and just walk off the job.
Most people can only do that after winning a lottery.
❤i love it
3:04 is he talking about firing her? Because if he is, then that would kind of make his question "Where do you think you're going?" odd. Suggestively, she agreed to the termination.
I kind of wonder what their fruit cup looks like. A cup with different fruits in it? Or one of those mini cups with the juice inside and peelable cap?
Everyone can make fun of Alice...we ALL wish we had an Alice.
However if Alice wanted to spy on the house she'd take an Uber or Lyft now. No cab.
What a horrible video. It touched me right in the feels, and I dont want to feel anything. 😢 😅
(Yes, it's a great video. I grew up with this bunch.)
Poor, hard working Alice, having to deal with those entitled brats.
This is what’s wrong with the world today.
Not growing up with The Brady Bunch.
So this is where they got the idea for Geoffrey quitting on Fresh Prince cause Carlton and Will tricked into thinking he won the lottery by a pre recoded VHS tape
The customer in the blue kept staring at Alice waiting for his coffee and toast Very impatient He was in a hurry Mr Foster gets on Alice
Where was Alice living when she worked at the diner? Did she skip out on paying her rent after quitting the diner?
I love ❤
She should have went to Sam's house to stay
Are you sure you want Alice back? She is telling you what to eat? Fuck that. Also Alice's boss is rude.
That's job abandonment.
Hey, Foster !! Grab an order pad and do some work. Or is that beneath you?
Robert Reed refused to be in this episode because of issues he had with the script. Luckily they found him working in a diner and convinced him to come back
ASEYHL😅❤
What kind of crazy would fire Alice??????????????

Are you for real? Lighten up Francis.
Is it more or Alice looks like Ellen?…

Be appreciative/grateful that you got to appreciate Jr High then and not now

That's the exact phrase Alice needed to hear:)
Wow that customer was worse than a 2024 Karen looking for the manager.
Pulls up the chair lol
Miss being young!
wow, mr foster really has to regain control of his staff!
As a Manager he should be picking up the slack...

Mr Foster also works or owns the magic store peter bought his tricks from.
Gives some insight into his frustration in this clip. I don’t think he ever got over losing that magic shop

Why didn't Vera or Flo get those people's orders.
Omg!!! This made me cry!
I never thought about this, but Alice looks and sounds just like Ellen Degeneres. Does anyone else see that?
That’s the same restaurant where they iced Tony soprano
The fact that a busy diner doesn't bother to secure the bottom of the blinds from flapping on the door just irks me.
It really does feel amazing to say goodbye to a job you can't stand, in exchange for one you know you love.

Something tells me that that set was reused in the sitcom Alice. I mean Alice Hyatt, not Alice the maid.
She walked out on her housekeeper job and then walked out on her waitress job. Not a good pattern.
