I was on Jump The Shark.com-What's Happening, and a poster wrote, "I like that Dee was sassy and smart-mouthed and had an attitude. Another young actress such as Janet Jackson at the time of WH, would have been cute and sweet and sweeten up the show which I wouldn't have liked as much."(I am paraphrasing) I was shocked when I read that!:eek: Who would you pick? I pick PENNY!:D

I would think Dee would take the votes on the What's Happening board. I didn't know there was so much love for Dee on here. I know I couldn't stand the brat. She is everything you would not want child to be, and Penny is everything you want your child to be.

...At least on the part where you say that Dee is everything you wouldn't want your kid to be, and Penny is the ideal child, I tend to agree with ya, Garfield buddy! :cool: :wave:
Good notation, there...

BUT!! Dee conquers all and she forever RULES...LOL, forever rules :cool: :p

If you are talking about who I would want as a daughter, than it is Penny all the way, but for sitcom purposes, it is going to be Dee.

I couldn't stand Dee....one of the many reasons why I didn't like What's Happening.....

I am disgusted! People are choosing DEE over Penny!:barf: They'd rather have a smart mouthed little beotch(dee) over a sweet, well-mannered angel!(Penny):barf:

If Penny was such an angel, why was she calling a grown man "buffalo butt"? A good child would not disrespect an adult like that.

This question is better suited for the General Discussion Board because Dee was not a GT chararcter. Now if you had said Penny or Kim Fields Character then that would be something different.

I agree which is why this question belongs on the General Discussion Board

Because I assumed posters would say, "Dee over Penny? Thats's preposterous!:eek: :rolleyes: Penny wins all the way!":D

Usually you make a poll to find out what the majority thinks, feels, etc. If you have a presumption already, then what is the point? And obviously your presumption was wrong. The question wasn't WHO WOULD YOU RATHER HAVE AS A DAUGHTER/SISTER, etc. The question was Who do you like better. I would want Penny as my daughter. But I LOVE DEE FOR HOW SHE WAS. Dee is the best. you can't get better than that. If it upsets you that she was chosen over Penny, then maybe you should have chosen a different person to go against her. Penny and Dee are vastly two different kids. Dee can be compared to Nellie on Little House on The Prairie.

I am imagining Dee as Penny Gordon. I wonder how Dee would interact with the abusive Mrs. Gordon.;) Remember, I am thinking of the SAME DEE character from What's Happening!, with no difference(The sassy little girl)................ I don't know if Dee would allow Mrs. Gordon to abuse her. She would probably hit her mother back........:) ;)
