I recently heard a great 2007 song the other day, "Falling Slowly" because it popped up in my newsfeed, accompanied by the sad news that the male singer, Glen Hansard, just died in a motorcycle accident. I learned that the song won an award and was featured in an indie movie called Once. I just watched it, and it's really good. They made it in 3 weeks on a $100,000 budget. It's streaming on...
Yes, ~ Flo's catchphrase, " Kiss my grits " !
Enjoyed widespread popularity at the time the character appeared on the television sitcom Alice.
The sitcom Alice sitcom ran from August 31, 1976 to March 19, 1985 on CBS.
According to Polly Holliday, the line was originally written as, "Kiss my honeydew " !
But did not get any laughs.
Since her portrayal of Flo, Polly Holliday has refused to repeat her famous "grits" line.
The series is based on the 1974 film Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore.
