Why would he get a spinoff and he was one of the main characters on the show? You know the Diner was called Mel's Diner right?

Here's how the pilot of the spinoff of alice works
it takes place after the alice tv show ended

mel sharples has sold the diner to a developer and the rest of them moved on to better things, while mel has decided that he had enough of Phoenix, AZ and move to las vegas for a job as a chef in a Las Vegas, NV at the las vegas hilton.
and the rest is history.
