It can be about more than one characters. Just as long as it's the characters that you dislike but you have to say something nice about them.

I'll start:

Blair- She is rich and confident.

Pippa - At least she was genuinely Australian.

This is hard. I guess one nice thing about Molly and Kelly are that they're only in a short amount of episodes so we don't have to put up with them for long. That is nice of them to leave the show and not come back.

^---replace the name "Molly" with "Alexandra", and I'll agree with you

Alexandra?

Anyways I figured out mine; Mr. Robert Garrett.

A nice thing? Um, he only appeared once...

Alexandra?

Yeah, that alleged "princess" who transfers to Eastland in season 4. :rolleyes:

I don't mind him. I guess because he gave Mrs. Garrett another adult to play off of, and it's so interesting to see more of her personal life. :)

Ohhh right! Yeah she was pointless

Well, she had a point (at least initially), as Retry will tell you, but I did not care for her character at all. It's nothing against the actress---she was great as Cat on "Sisters", it's just that Alexandra was an epic fail for me.

Yeah she wasn’t a bad actress but her character wasn’t necessary

I like both Alexandra and Molly, although I think Molly could have been given some better dialogue; falling for Dan Rather is particularly bad. Alex's mess in the kitchen is one of the things I really like in Season Four. Molly "comforting" Sue Ann in IQ is a great scene in Season One.

Alexandra was the writers' last attempt at showing other students at Eastland, besides the Core Four. For the rest of that final season, they made almost no attempt at even trying to show other recurring students... except, of course, for a student named... wait for it... Emily.

And Retro---we'll see if you're "retro" enough for this, and maybe we'll introduce Lorsie to something new as well---Mr. F was also a character in The Letter People, a reading readiness program for kindergarten which also became a cult classic PBS delightfully-low-budget puppet series! :)

His sound is the same sound that starts "Funny Feet"! (and "Facts of Life" :lol: )

I have no memory of The Letter People, possibly because I was too busy watching Captain Video on the DuMont Network, sonny! :grr:

No Care Bear Cousins, no Letter People...are you sure you were around in the '80s?? lol ;)

But yeah, The Letter People were created in, like, 1971, and their delightfully-low-budget puppet show was in the late '70s, circa '76---it aired on many PBS stations well into the '80s.

Anyway, Miss Mahoney's favorite Letter Person is probably Letter Boy Mr. H---he stands for "Horrible Hair"! :lol:

DuMont was a TV, son! The finest TVs in all the land! "First with the finest" was their motto.

And DuMont was a television network. The world's first commercial network. Not like those whippersnapper upstart networks like ABC, NBC, and CBS! Sure, the picture was 90% snow, and audio hadn't been invented yet, but that was how we liked things back in those days! *shakes cane weakly*


...I kid, but I owned a DuMont TV from 1996 to 2002, when it at last died.

'46 to '56, actually. Though the 1955-1956 season, under Paramount Pictures control, was pathetic. And I have Captain Video on DVD. It was the most low-budget TV show you've ever seen. It made Ed Wood films look like masterpieces. The space ship was held up by string. Love it!

Ok so are you saying you saw it live then or later on DVD?

If I saw DuMont Network broadcasts live, and remembered them, I would be in my 70s. :lol:

I am a child of the 1980s. I have many of DuMont's remaining broadcasts (the ones that weren't destroyed) on DVD. I had a cool DuMont TV from 96-2002, too.

Yes I did the math. ;) I was like, “wait he can’t be that old.”
