Actress Polly Holliday portrayed wise-cracking "Flo" on ALICE for CBS (1976-1980). Plus, the TV spin-off "Flo" (1980-1981). Her character catch-phrase was "Kiss My Grits" which became a national phenomenon. Flo also said, "When Pigs Fly."
We used to watch the TV series when it ran in Syndication during the daytime. Flo was a "hoot" to watch. Actress Polly Holliday never spoke her character catch phrase in public. She also never said it after both TV sitcoms ended. Fans around the world said it for her all of the time.... "Mel, Kiss My Grits!!"
The actress portrayed other characters on TV. The most memorable was on "The Golden Girls." She played the blind sister of Rose Niland. RIP....
