As a kid I liked ODAAT better but as an adult I laugh harder at Alice. Love both though and have all of ODAAT on DVD and seasons 1-7 (waiting for 8-9) of Alice.

Younger, first run I'd say Alice. Now as an adult I still love Alice but I love ODAAT too. And ODAAT has the love of my life Max!!:):love:

I like Mel a bit more than Schneider, Tommy way better than Alex, Nanette and Martha undecided ?, Flo better than Ginny, Barbara & Julie equal to Vera & Jolene, Alice better than Ann.

Wouldn't it have been cool if they did a Alice/ ODAAT crossover episode?:cool: The ODAAT gang could be taking a road trip to California in Schneider's camper. They stop for a bite to eat in Phoenix at Mel's diner !!!:);) Couldn't you totally see Flo and Schneider flirting with each other?! ;)

That would have been cool! I think Tommy would have gotten a crush on Barbara too.:). Ann and Alice would likely have butted heads. Or maybe Ann and Mel after Ms. Romano sees how he treats his waitresses.

Yeah I was thinking of Tommy having a crush on Barbara!:) And I thought Mel would maybe have the hots for Ann, but your scenario is better , he would like her but she wouldn't reciprocate his advances feeling he was too much a male chauvinist because like you say the way he treats his waitresses.:confused: How about if Ann convinced them to go on strike? :eek::D

I'm no Alice expert, but they weren't close to same age, were they?

Yes! There'd definitely be some civil unrest, a battle of the network stars!:)

Yeah ! Barbara and Julie were much younger than Vera and Jolene !;) They weren't young women! Esp. by those days standards. They were probably supposed to be like mid 30's ? ;)

I could totally see Mel telling Ann to "stow it"! :D ...among other things. :eek:

Ann and Alice would totally have butted heads, and maybe Ann would've been disappointed with the way Flo handles herself. Ann would've probably given Flo a women's lib speech.

I thought so. I’m familiar with Vera, but have no idea who Jolene is, except for the fact that she could take Dolly Parton’s man if she wanted to.

And we all know what Flo would've told Ann she could do....

I realized I never answered the original poll idea. So, for the record, with no offense to Alice fans, I'd go all the way with One Day, except I would pick Flo over Ginny. And not to sound equivocal, but I could be persuaded to switch to Alice over Ann and Mel over Scheinder.:)

One Day at a Time for me too. Alice is a great show, though.

OH Nuts!

All the ODAAT choices, except: I’ll go with the Flo (just loved her sass!)

ODAAT had a much better cast, wish Flo would have defected to Indianapolis!!!!

What if Ann and Flo had become good friends and both being redheads if Ann started wearing a big old beehive hairdo like Flo's and they went out together to the Honky Tonk bars picking up Good ol' boys!!?? :lol::D

I enjoyed Alice more especially in the early years.

One Day At A Time is OK.
