You just had to mess with it, didn't you? LOL. The writing is on point. They gave Mrs. Garrett some time to settle in before Mr. D asked. It was fine. Dang, Solomon! WHYYYY! LOL. Yes, it is great to see the show back. Teenick pulled from the sched today but one more episode will air on 4/9 according to my DVR unless is changes.

I always was sad when she left Diffrent Strokes but I guess when the producers saw she had talent they had no choice but to give her a show

It was a good move. She did go back to DS after the summer trial eps aired and then when NBC ordered nine more eps for that season, she went back and then there was no looking back. I'm glad she did one more appearance four years later when Mr. D. got married. Like I said, it was a good move.

So was I, dude. So was I. I did get excited when I saw the crossovers. I still do. I still speak geek when it comes to TV. Yes, I will admit that people like you can give me a run for my money when it comes to the love of television. LOL.

I never told no one this but when I watched good times and someone was at the door I was hoping it would be George Jefferson-lol

It never happened

Mashup crossovers? Perfectly normal and creative for the TV viewer. LOL.

^^^ That's cute! :lol: I would have loved for George Jefferson to stop by for lunch back in the 70s when I was a kid loving his show! :)

I also would have liked to see Jo appear on Diffrent Strokes

I had a crush on Willis from Different Strokes, Dwayne from What's Happening and Chachi from Happy Days. I would have been OVER JOYED if any one of them stopped by!

Tootie was cute!

My brother loved Marcia from The Brady Bunch and Thelma from Good Times.

It was nice to see how much Tootie loved Mrs. Garrett. I also liked how nosy Tootie was with the older girls.

Me too! Would have loved to see her in a sassy exchange with Arnold. Why didn't she ever come there/ Blair and Natalie guest-starred once or twice at least

It had nothing to do with her talent. NBC had a lack of quality shows and they needed to react fast, so The Facts of Life was born.

Help me to understand what you are talking about. When characters are SPINNED OFF it'e because they are generating positive feedback from viewers.


They just don't spinoff any character

I misspoke what I meant to say that is was a mixture of the 2 things which was that she had the talent and NBC needed more financial gains to lead so The Facts of Life was born.

I did to. Your brother has good taste.:)

Yeah, he also had it real bad for "Blair." He drew her picture and sent a love note to her fan club.

I'm just glad Brandon Tartikoff became president of the entertainment division of NBC.
