I never heard any of the cast comment after Mel's death. Especially from Linda Lavin herself.

I know it was a long time ago but does anyone have any reaction of the cast after Vic Tayback's passing?

Wow. I didn't know he was working on a new series, Ginsburg & Habib! I did know he missed a few episodes in 1993 due to open heart surgery.

Still like to hear what Linda & Beth Howland had to say.

Did Vic really create the "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore" movie??

It didn't say he created the movie. It said he created the role. :rolleyes:

The writers & producers created the role not Vic Tayback.

First of all, Vic Tayback died, not Mel. Secondly, in the parlance of the entertainment world, to create a role means to be the first actor to play a role, so, yes, Vic Tayback created the role.

i remember watching the show and looking back after 35 + years, it sad to read Vic died at age 60. Too Young

Still like to hear what Alice herself said!
