View Full Version : My FOL tradition
Nanc and Lisa! 08-14-2008, 11:01 PM I know ALL of you are extreme FOLaholics like me and I know that you prolly watch the show every day like I do but I wanted to know if you all have a "tradition" like me. I especially look forward to this time of day because I literally have made a daily FOL tradition. every night when I get in bed, I put in my "Facts" dvds and watch a bunch of eps until I fall asleep. what could be better than that right? I mean obviously there are other times of the day that I watch facts sometimes but i love the fact that i have a routine every night that when i get into bed, I watch Facts till i fall asleep and that will always continue to be my fol tradition cuz i love that time I have to just lie in bed and laugh my head off. Its such a great way to end every day and I love it! so what are your fol traditions?
ZeldaGilroy 08-14-2008, 11:07 PM I can't do that! If I watch FOL at night, it takes me forever to fall asleep. I get so caught up in the show, that I want to watch tons of episodes. I swear I'd watch the whole series straight through and never sleep if I didn't force myself to stop. :) Then, after I watch it at night, I tend to dream about the show :lol:
I usually watch it on weekends when I have some free time. As much as I love the show, I don't have enough time for it. Your tradition sounds great though!
Jo_Luvs_Ketchup 08-15-2008, 01:18 AM That is my FAVORITE tradition! Omg I go to "bed" reallly early, bring some snacks and Me and my doggys lounge on my bed while watching it. I'll have to take a picture! I will be doing it tomorrow night! Picture of me, my golden/lab, beagle, and poodle in my bed. Oh and the cats have come to let themselves into my room, so them too! That will be OUR FOL Reunion for us hehe.

I can't do that either for the same reason. If I were to do that, I'd end up watching every episode without sleeping, no matter how tired I got just because I'd get so caught up in it. It sounds like a good tradition through :) .
I don't really have a tradition much anymore. When Facts was on N@N my tradition was to watch it every night but now that the show is no longer showing anymore, whenever I feel like it I watch my DVD's or watch the episodes on Joost or YouTube :) .
Nanc and Lisa! 08-15-2008, 09:55 PM yes i understand that but at a certain time each night, i get sleepy. sometimes ill wake up at like 3 in the morning and see the show still playing or have the Facts logo across my tv. (its the coolest thing. My other tv dosent display the Facts screen saver but the one in my room does. if i leave the tv on without playing an ep for a while, the screen will turn pink and display The Facts of Life in these cool colors. little things like that thrill me.lol i just think its so cool.lol) but yea i usually wake up and have to turn it off sometime at night but i still like my tradition. its soo much fun.
pfeifferobsessed 08-16-2008, 03:19 PM i dont have an exact tradition, but i usually watch several eps after i get home from work and then go to bed...but its not every single night...so i guess i have a semi-tradition! ;)
Nanc and Lisa! 08-17-2008, 01:06 AM gotcha.lol
Nighthawk76 08-17-2008, 11:38 PM I don't really have a tradition. I try to watch two episodes every week. I like to watch at least one Eastland episide and one post Eastland episode.

That's true, it is. :)
painmakeyourway 08-20-2008, 12:37 AM I don't have a tradition or routine or anything, I just watch whenever I get the chance, pretty much

that works too! ;)
InspectorExstead 08-24-2008, 10:55 PM nice tradition! i always have to watch something before i can fall asleep (and i usually end up falling asleep while watching tv). usually it's something on tv or my i love lucy dvds. but every two months or so, i watch all of my fol dvds & then move on to the episodes on vhs before i go to sleep.
Nanc and Lisa! 08-24-2008, 11:32 PM i definitely fall asleep to Facts of Life. 99.9% of the time.

i cant fall asleep while watching "facts"...its impossible for me...id be up all night watching "facts"! :lol:
Jude The Obscure 08-25-2008, 10:00 PM Haven't watched my Facts DVDs in so long, in order to keep myself anticipated when season 4 is released, then I can start from scratch again. But the way it is going, I may not be able to hold out much longer!
I used to enjoy episodes on Ewe Toob (mispelled on purpose) til Sony got all stupid on us and forced the removal.

Haha, that name just sums it all up :lol: .
I used to watch episodes from there too; practically the whole series was on there, including my favorites but because I was so busy with school and everything I figured I would catch up over the summer (where I could watch more than a couple of eps a week) and then I go on there during the summer and they're all gone! I was like, "WTF happened?" :( I then found out that the main uploader's account (adultescent1971) was closed; however I'm not sure if he/she closed it down or if YouTube did.
FOL is slowly making its way back on there with people uploading what they have (one person in particular is uploading the episodes that come on OnDemand, which is giving me my season 4 fix) and the site hasn't removed them but without adultescent1971 (imo, the "main FOL uploader") I doubt we'll ever see the whole series on there like we once did :( .

well put!
televisionweb 11-10-2008, 06:27 PM I don't have a "tradition". However, I have EVERY Fol episode on my ipod from the whole series!:] It's black and 160 GB, so theres plently of room for Facts of Life music videos as well. It's the perfect size too, because all the season 4-9 episodes are from Youtube, and the quality is really good. :] I carry it with me in my purse everywhere I go. I'll watch it at home, or in the car, or out and about, I definetly watch it every day though. :]
