In order to have any idea what I am going to go on about in this post, you really have to be able to understand linkage! You see, what I am going to write about relates to something else that relates to "Gimme a Break!". You see the purpose of this post is to commemorate the eighteen views of my thread titled "Opposite Parenthood". You see, the first episode of "Parenthood" was on opposite an episode of "20/20". One thing that I had read about this "20/20" episode on the "Facts of Life" page is that there Lisa Whelshel who played Blair on that show was going to be interviewed. I thought that you guys might be interested in this because "Facts of Life" was popular with the same Generation X crowd as "Gimme a Break!" I, however, did not watch "20/20". because I wanted to see "Parenthood". I though it was pretty decent. Another thing that is jermaine here is that Helen Hunt was considered for one of the parts on this show but did not make it. The way that that relates to "Gimme a Break!" is that 29 years ago, she was rejected for the role of Katie Kinisky! Now I am finely going to move to the topic about how the number eighteen plays into the equation! Eighteen years ago, Olivia Goldsmith published her first novel "The First Wives Club". Some of you might be familiar with the movie that went with the book. It seemed that, for the next few years, she was writing book after book! Unfortunately, she passed away in the early part of this millenium. You will be missed Olivia!
