		One thing I knew was bad, even as a child, was Linda Lavin's "singing", whoever told her that she could carry a tune needs to be tied up and forced to listen to her fingernails on a chalkboard warbling for hours on end.
		Linda Lavin's perm was a mark of desperation, as was Vera's lame boyfriend (a mistake repeated later on TV's MOONLIGHTING) and CBS only kept it around because people kept watching inexplicably.
		Linda Lavin was a poor replacement for Ellen Burstyn, and the rest of the cast wasn't much better.

	Edward Rubin Theater Reviews - New York Theatre Wire
		Watching this actress age some ten years - the actual span of time from act one to act two - as all of her hopes and dreams, one by one evaporate, is two inches short of miraculous.
		Her mugging and screeching, like chalk across a flboard, throughout the entire The Tale of the Allergist's Wife, a role that would have been better played by the playwright Charles Busch himself (at a small theatre thank you), was most annoying.
		Lavin as Nanny, the matriarch of the play - with humor masquerading as pathos - gets to play more than her customary one note.

	Linda Lavin, Q&A: Broadway.com Buzz
		Casting Linda Lavin in any play is like buying theatrical insurance--something may go wrong on stage, but the playwright and director know that they've got a lead actress who can nail every wisecrack while digging deep to expose the emotional life of her character.
		Like many great comic actors, Lavin tends to be introspective in conversation and speaks like a person who has been through her share of therapy, which isn't surprising given the ups and downs of her personal life.
		Lavin then married actor Kip Niven and began raising his two children, who had lost their mother in an automobile accident.

	ALICE \| A TELEVISION HEAVEN REVIEW
		While waiting for her break as a singer, Alice serves meals at Mel's Diner, a greasy spoon known for the chili made by cook and proprietor Mel Sharples (played by the late Vic Tayback, the only member of the film cast to join the TV version when it debuted on CBS in 1976).
		In 1981, Ladd left the series (reportedly because of clashes between her and series star Lavin) and was replaced by Jolene Hunnicutt (Celia Weston), a character similar to Flo and Belle in both spirit and Southern accent.
		Lavin was also able to satisfy her real-life itch for vocalizing; she sang the show's theme "There's A New Girl In Town" at the beginning of each episode.

	Alice (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The waitress void was filled by the introduction of Alice Hyatt in the first episode.
		By the 1984-1985 season, many of the situations had been exhausted and Lavin seemed disinterested in continuing the character of Alice (Alice was absent several times in the last year due to Lavin directing a number of episodes or playing another role as Alice's wizened landlady).
		Vic Tayback (Mel Sharples) died in 1990, but most of the other cast members have continued to appear fairly regularly in theater, television, and the occasional film.
