View Full Version : Club Hubba Hubba
MariposaLKB 03-12-2001, 09:34 AM Hey Moon! I think we need to have a branch of Club Hubba Hubba started on this message board, considering how many postings there have been re: Freddie's physical attributes. There are obviously alot of potential members here! What does anyone else think?
Hehe...I never dreamed that the club my little girlfriends and I reserved for the cute boys on TV and movies and music all those jears ago would be...here...on the internet.
Then again, who thought back in 1975 we'd be able to communicate in this fashion on a little keyboard/TVscreen affair computer instead of some big monster with plugs and wires and punch cards?
------------------
Get outta my garage!
Pitooey 03-12-2001, 09:37 PM So far I counted 3 for the Hubba Hubba club! Me included........
Esmerelda 03-13-2001, 06:02 AM Make that 4,girls- deal me in!!! What a concept!!! I had a Freddie list years ago-and TV land reruns have brought it all back-
and I've even added to it-that man just had it all!!!! I vote for his hands-hey wait, what about his dimples,his smile, his hair and could he fill out a pair of jeans...better go- I think I'm overheating!!! Until the next meeting of the Hubbba Hubba club... bye for now
Esmerelda(Susan)
MariposaLKB 03-13-2001, 02:00 PM Y'know, fellow Hubba Hubbas, it just occurred to me that throughout all the postings that convinced me we needed this club, there is one attribute nobody has mentioned. I can't imagine that no one has noticed (with the way Freddie always wears his shirts half unbuttoned)what a great chest he had. I can't go for those guys who look like they're wearing bearskin rugs, so I would've loved to cuddle up against Chico. Who's with me?
Esmerelda 03-13-2001, 02:09 PM ME! ME!!!! I'm with you-what a gorgeous chest-smooth as silk-wouldn't mind rubbing Vick's on it if the poor baby had a cold!!!
Did you ever notice his tongue-check it out!!!!
Esmerelda(Susan)
flannelpjs 03-13-2001, 05:14 PM Hey dont forget me!!!Count me in too!!! Its funny how you dont notice those things when you are a young girl, but boy do you notice them now huh? Anybody agree?
------------------
flannelpjs
MariposaLKB 03-13-2001, 05:25 PM Yeah, being with the same man for 15 years has just made me ready to notice all this stuff, I guess. Nothing wrong with what I've got, but Chico is just the dark, smoldering, sensual, outrageously romantic type that my man isn't. Guess I need that more than I thought! At least I'm not prowling the real world to find it LOL! And I was old enough when CATM was first on that I wasn't totally oblivious to Freddie's charms then either.
OK now--what's next on the list?
Esmerelda 03-13-2001, 07:20 PM I was 21 when catm first aired in the 70's so I too remember ALL of the above attributes as well as many others-ah there is something to be said for age. The reruns have brought it all back to me-there is something to be said for reality but fantasy is a wonderful thing too-agree??
WHAT ABOUT HIS LONG SENSUAL TONGUE??? HAS ANYONE BUT ME NOTICED??? LOOOOKING GOOOD!!!!
Esmerelda(sUSAN)
MariposaLKB 03-13-2001, 07:55 PM SOMEBODY THROW A BUCKET OF WATER ON ESMERELDA!
And while you're at it, splash me,too--I've never actually noticed the tongue, but just the thought is heating me up!
Are there any parts we haven't considered yet--that is, ones that we can discuss without getting booted off this message board?!
Yeah, reality's OK, but fantasy's got it beat by a mile when Freddie's the subject!!!!
Esmerelda 03-13-2001, 09:33 PM Thanks-I needed that pail of water! I feel MUCH better now!!
Can we talk about his beautifuleyes ??expressive,soulful eyes-great eyelashes too!!! Guess that's safe for the website,huh?
But check out the tongue- I promise you won't be disappointed!!!
Esmerelda(susan)
MariposaLKB 03-13-2001, 09:52 PM Hey Esmerelda--Yeah, I could go on for days on the subject of those eyes! It's always been a toss-up as to which was more beautiful about his face, the eyes or the lips? You're welcome for the bucket of water, but none of it got on me and I think I may have some very sweet dreams tonight! Wait, there's a thought--anyone ever had a dream about him? That can be posted, I mean. (How careful do we have to be anyway?)
Prince 03-13-2001, 10:15 PM I may be old but I'm certainly not blind.
I know when he was young if we would have
meant I could have tamed his savage soul.
Anyway, I watched Chico when I was young and
never noticed him the way I do now. But I never claimed to be smart when I was young. He does get better looking with each new episode. Count me in as a club member. He is very easy on the eyes, which makes him all the more endearing. He played the character to a tee. It's not hard to love Chico.
Pitooey 03-13-2001, 11:50 PM Here I am, I just took a cold shower!!! That "Looking good Freddie" was FINE!!! I love it when he comes out with the orange shirt and the white pants & that tennis racket in his hand. It sometimes comes out on the commercial for the show. When he came out dressed like Elvis this morning WELL....... (I ran to the showers again).................. Believe me that I've checked out Freddie in every which way possible!!! LOOKING GOOD..............................
MariposaLKB 03-14-2001, 10:48 AM The orange shirt (open to THERE), the white pants, the sunglasses, the tennis moves...oh yeah, until I get a chance to watch the episode with the Elvis outfit (My 3 year old has custody of the TV right now), that is my favorite image of Chico, no question!!! Hey, have we mentioned his legs? The tight jeans did alot for them too (or is it the other way around?)!

flannelpjs 03-14-2001, 11:43 AM Hey all, did you all see him in that suit!!! I swear you could eat him up with a spoon!!! Do we all agree???
------------------
flannelpjs
MariposaLKB 03-14-2001, 11:47 AM See my reply under "checking in". What a body, what a dancer!!!! Gimme that spoon!!!! MMMMMM....tastes like caramel!!!!
Where's that bucket of cold water??????
Pitooey 03-14-2001, 04:43 PM Doesn't he dance good.... I wanted to dance with him right there... OOOOOWWWW!
Pitooey 03-14-2001, 04:46 PM I have no idea if my reply came out so I'll post again.... He sure dances good! I wanted to get up and dance with Freddie right there.... OOOOWWWWWW!
MariposaLKB 03-16-2001, 12:47 PM Hey--we gotta get this going again, so I thought I'd make an observation re: Chico playing basketball--HE SCORES!
Pitooey 03-16-2001, 02:27 PM So you want to go at it again.... "Well" - Did you see Freddie in the hospital room? His robe kept opening up & you can see his belly button, stomach & chest! OOOOOOWWWWW! (If my older son hears me talk like this....... He would be so embarassed). OOOOOOOOWWWWWWW!!
Esmerelda 03-16-2001, 05:59 PM Who asked for
the pail of cold water-I just happen to have the empty pail that you threw on me last time-here goes...feel better now?
Of course not- it only works for a moment or two-as soon as Chico comes back to mind it's over.
Anyway-I like the idea of the spoon-want to share? Caramel huh? Sounds SCRUMPTIOUS!!!
Don't forget the whipped cream!!!
The accident episode was soooo cute-he looked adorable in his bathrobe-what a cute belly button-I just knew it was an innie-but Chico- what a time to be modest!!!
Until next posting....
Esmerelda(Susan)
Esmerelda 03-16-2001, 07:10 PM P.S. He even has cute feet-white socks and all!!!!!
Emerelda(Susan)
Pitooey 03-16-2001, 09:27 PM Throw me some ice cold water....... I love that "inne"
MariposaLKB 03-16-2001, 09:56 PM LOL!!! I thought I had Chico scrutinized down to the last detail, but you guys and the "innie" have got me beat! Haven't seen the episode yet--looks like it's gonna be another late night!
P. S. Re: Caramel. Isn't his skin just that color and just as smooth?!!!
Luckymama58 03-16-2001, 11:34 PM Anything he does is a turn on. Basketball or just lying around in that hospital bed. I'd love to nurse him back to health. Anyone want to give him a sponge bath besides me? Where's that bucket of cold water when you need it!
Esmerelda 03-17-2001, 12:00 AM Hm... a sponge bath-now that's an idea if I ever heard one-warm,soapy water and a hot Chico....yeah-sounds good-now where did that sponge go-guess I'll have to go "fishing" in the water to find it-this may take a while...I'll get back to you later-MUCH LATER!!!!
Esmerelda(Susan)
flannelpjs 03-17-2001, 10:47 AM Hey is it just me or does someone else wonder what his feet look like? how about his little toes? I bet this will get you going!!!
------------------
flannelpjs
Esmerelda 03-17-2001, 11:31 AM Too bad his feet were covered I bet he has long slender toes just like his fingers!!!when they showed his feet with the white socks on I said to myself-self, I said-how much fun would it to play footsie under the tahle with those feet or to play this little piggy-is anybody with me on that???? He would certainly go wee wee wee all the way home-LOOOOKIN GOOOOOOD!!!
Esmerelda(Susan)
MariposaLKB 03-17-2001, 11:58 AM LOL again! Esmerelda honey, I thought I was gone on Chico, but you take the cake! Guess we could go on forever about this man's attributes! I must admit I did wonder why he always wore socks even without shoes--were his feet ugly or something? No, of course they weren't; maybe he just had bad circulation like my husband--tall people with long legs and arms often do. Think Freddie's hands were always cold? I'm sure one of us could have warmed them if they were! Oh no, time for a cold shower!

Luckymama58 03-17-2001, 01:08 PM You know what they say, Cold hands, Warm heart! ***Marie***
MariposaLKB 03-17-2001, 02:01 PM You betcha! I know he had one of those!
Hey everybody--we need to start another topic or get ourselves our own website or something! THREE PAGES?
Dannii 03-17-2001, 03:37 PM Uh, I am glad I am not alone in rewinding my VCR last night to see the lean, muscled abs he had..albeit for a second or two!
I KNOW that there is a later episode where Chico takes up boxing, because in a book that I have, there is a still shot of him in ......boxing trunks!
Can't wait for that episode!
Life is good!
Pitooey 03-19-2001, 10:51 PM "Fellow Hubba Hubba's" - I need to see a CATM Fandemonium so I can check him out with the boxing shorts on, With the tongue sticking out, With the white pants and orange shirt, with the Elvis outfit, With the Rev. Bemis black sparkle outfit, With the Innie, With the cracked ribs, even with those checkerboard pajamas, with the white socks, with the superfly hat, with the wedding attire with the too small hat.....etc. etc. etc. I'm going to the showers now! BRRRRRR.............
MariposaLKB 03-19-2001, 11:33 PM Yeah, aren't those PJ's just the most bizarre fashion choice (next to the hats)? Oh well, having him sleep just in boxers would have been waaaay too hot!
Realistically, could anyone sit through all the above-mentioned episodes in one weekend and not be a victim of spontaneous combustion?
BTW, Dannii--could you post that boxing picture somewhere? I can't wait!
[This message has been edited by MariposaLKB (edited 03-19-2001).]
Esmerelda 03-20-2001, 04:21 AM I don't think even an asbestos suit would stop the spontneous combustion-Freddie was just too HOT!!!!
I agree about the pj's-weird. I can't imagine Chico wearing them-bottoms maybe but not flannel and certainly not that awful pattern. Imagine if he had only worm briefs or just pj bottoms-every picture tube in America would have burned out!!!
Esmerelda
Pitooey 03-20-2001, 08:21 PM <b>I'll be honest with you even with those checkerboard pajamas he still LIGHTS MY FIRE! WWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!
Prince 03-20-2001, 10:23 PM You guys are so funny. It makes my day to
read all of your postings. Club Hubba Hubba is a great idea. I couldn't agree with you
more. I never realized what a great dancer
Freddie was. Chico has some great moves.
Doing the bump at the retirement home was the
best. I have noticed a lot of mistakes in
the scripts. When Chico was in the hospital
he referred to his father as having died, but in earlier episodes he was not suppose to have even known his father??? What's up with that? Does anyone know what was suppose to have happened to Chico's mother? Was he orphaned at an early age? I missed the first few shows. Please enlighten me if you know.
Club Hubba Hubba lives!!!
Dannii 03-20-2001, 11:38 PM Hi Mariposa! I am sorry, I do not have a scanner to post the pic of Freddie in boxing trunks. It was taken toward the end of his short life-with the big-hair, thin-faced Freddie! The pic is in an out-of-print book, called "Too Young to Die", by Patricia Fox-Sheinwold from 1978! Freddie is profiled, among other celebs. Maybe your library has it-that's where I first saw mine! Great read!
MariposaLKB 03-21-2001, 10:16 AM Hey Dannii, thanx for the info re: the book "Too Young to Die"! I'll try to find it here, but this is a small town with a podunk library, and I don't get to the city much! Anyway--wasn't Freddie's hair always big? That's one reason I thought it might have been a wig at certain times. I don't think I've seen any of the later episodes. Do drug addicts sometimes lose their hair, so maybe it was a wig then? And to all those who already basically told me I was nuts to think it was ever a wig, I'M JUST ASKIN', OK?
Esmerelda 03-21-2001, 03:32 PM There was a point where Freddie's hair did look like a wig-I wish I could remember the episode where I thought it might be. It looked too perfect and too big.It was in one of the earlier episodes. I wondered if maybe while he was high he might have cut it or messed it up in some way and maybe the wig was used until it grew back-kind of stretching things a bit but it was a thought.
But on the othet hand there were episodes where he touched ho hair or someone else did(Liz when he had the cracked ribs) and you knew it was really his own hair.Speaking of that hospital episode, I just had a flashback to chico's belly button-what a lovely thought-guess I'll go think about it some more- keep that pail of water handy,my friends--
Bye for now
Esmerelda
MariposaLKB 03-21-2001, 04:44 PM Geez! Would everybody stop making these delirious comments about the bellybutton! I had to miss that episode because my VCR screwed up--y'all are makin' me JEALOUS!
Pitooey 03-21-2001, 08:07 PM Innie Belly Button, Innie Belly Button, Innie Belly Button. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
MariposaLKB 03-21-2001, 08:31 PM I'm just gonna let that one pass--HAHAHAHAHA TO YOU TOO!
Back to the subject of whether he wore a wig sometimes for any reason due to drug use--are you saying he was on drugs from early on in the show?
Esmerelda 03-21-2001, 09:01 PM Mariposa,
Not sure but I am going to go back and check out the episode-not exactly sure how far into the episodes it was-I kind of think maybe he dabbled a bit in drugs way back just because of being so young and having been exposed to it in the entertainment business but think te pressures just gotto him and he fell deeply into it.
No as far as the BB episode goes- I will gladly make you a copy-e mail me!!! No one should have to miss out on that gorgeous inne because of technical problems!!!
Esmerelda

MariposaLKB 03-21-2001, 09:46 PM Esmerelda, I would e-mail you with my snail mail address in a Newyorican minute if I had your e-mail address! Please e-mail to me, and I'll be looking forward to getting a chance to see that innie! Thanx so mucho!
OH MY GOD I'VE STARTED PAGE 4!!!!!!

Dannii 03-22-2001, 12:25 AM Hi Mariposa again! Hey, if ya want, I could certainly fax you the section in the "Too Young to Die" book on Freddie! I am off work until next Monday, but when I get back I will be happy to do so!
There is 12 pages on His Gorgeousness! You can reach me here or email me directly at Ninercutie@hotmail.com , and provide me with a fax number, if you want. I am warning you...you can see his RIBS!!
Esmerelda 03-22-2001, 02:41 AM .
WOops-see next message from me
Esmerelda
[This message has been edited by Esmerelda (edited 03-22-2001).]
Esmerelda 03-22-2001, 02:55 AM Mariposa,
You can e mail me at Esmereldasmom@aol.com.
BTW- TONGUE ALERT!! TONGUE ALERT!!!! In the crooks episode when Ed and chico are first talking to the madam- watch Chico's tongue-that thing must be a foot long!!!
do you think there is any connection between the size of a man's tongue and his...well you know...Just a thought and here's another one-don't you think that thing deserves a name-no not his tongue..well you know??? Let's discuss-there's definitely a page 5 in that one!!! I was thinking-how about BUBBA??Or KILLER?? or maybe Mr Rivera-whatever but we have to call it something!!!
Therapy-who said therapy?? I think I need a NET!!!!!
Esmerelda
flannelpjs 03-22-2001, 10:46 AM Hi all its me again flannel pjs... I was right we do need therapy!!! I cant find my firs reply... I love reading whats on this board!! did someone want dreams? boy did i have one the other night!! cant post though!
------------------
flannelpjs
Pitooey 03-22-2001, 10:53 AM "E S M E R E L D A" I am shocked at you! HAHAHAHAHAHA How about beefaroni? HAHAHAHA - Seriously Hubba Hubba's Let us not forget that Freddie was a young man of 20-22 when he made alot of the episodes. So that's his real hair, even if it looked wigged out! Do you know many men without hair at that age? Think about it....
MariposaLKB 03-22-2001, 12:16 PM How did you manage to get a look at his tongue?! His back was to the camera and the whole thing took a nanosecond!
On to other topics, there might be some relationship re: the tongue and other things. Why do you suppose his jeans fit like they did? BTW, Beefaroni is too Italian (no offense to the Italians in the group!), Bubba reminds me of our former President, Killer is too morbid, and Mr. Rivera is Geraldo (yuck!--but yeah, it needs a Spanish name! I'll check my dictionary. What English word would you suggest?).
Yeah, I asked a while back for people to post their dreams, but most said they were too hot for this forum! Can you e-mail and copy to everybody who might be interested and whose addresses are on this board? I'm new at this stuff, so I don't know if that's really an option.
OK, OK, I'll stop asking if his hair was ever a wig--LOL!!! Now that you mention age, it just dawned on me that I'm about old enough to be Chico's mother, and so are some of the rest of you!!! Should we be ashamed?
NAH!!!!!
[This message has been edited by MariposaLKB (edited 03-22-2001).]
Esmerelda 03-22-2001, 10:59 PM I think we should sign Liz Garcia for Club Hubba Hubba-in the facelift episode she told Chico that even his ankles turned her on- in my opinion that qualifies her for membership!!! What do you guys think???
Also in the same episode- check out chico's ring-first it was on his right hand then his left then not at all-very weird!! I love looking at those hands!!
As a matter of fact I love looking at those eyes,that hair,that mustache,that belt, that...uh...you know??? We have to come up with a name for it-come on girls!!! That way we can talk about it without getting booted off this site!!
Bye for now-
Susan(Esmerelda)
MariposaLKB 03-23-2001, 08:52 AM I always thought Chico should wear jewelry to enhance the attributes we've already discussed--such as continuing to wear the necklace from the pilot episode to complement his beautiful neck and chest, and a ring or two on those long sexy fingers! But I found it unrealistic that a mechanic would wear a ring--my husband works on cars in his spare time, and always gives me his wedding ring to hold because he's afraid of ripping off his finger!
Enough quibbling! As to an appropriate name for (you know), I found a word in my Spanish dictionary that seems appropriate in a lot of ways--"chicote". It fits with the character's name, and is a word for "cigar" (I still think he looked very sexy smoking in the "Aunt Connie Returns" episode, and "smokin'" would probably fit how he would use this particular attribute!). For those who don't know Spanish, the "e" on the end of "chicote" is pronounced like a long "a".
As for Liz, I don't know about letting her in the Club--maybe if she only posted messages and didn't talk (her voice gets on my last nerve!). I would like to ask her how it felt to kiss Chico--do you think he was using that fabulous tongue (it sure looked like he might have been)?!!!!
BTW--Anyone know of any episode where we could get a good view of his legs?
[This message has been edited by MariposaLKB (edited 03-23-2001).]
Esmerelda 03-23-2001, 09:05 AM I LOVE IT!!! What a great word-yes it does fit like a glove hm...just like those pants!!
SMOKIN!!
Everything that man did he did in a sexy way-wouldn't you have loved to watch him shave??
How about brush his teeth and gargle?? Of course he would be wearing only his underwear at the time!!! Oh my-where is that bucket of ice water,Mariposa??? I need it bad!!!!!!!
Esmerelda
Pitooey 03-23-2001, 10:19 AM "SPLASH" There it is! A couple more SPLASH, SPLASH, SPLASH....... Chicote it is. It seems that on Season 3 is when you start noticing that he is staying up all night. He lost weight but, he was still so fine! I remember seeing these same episodes back in the 70's & people were commenting on his weight loss. That was it though. I don't recall anyone talking about his drug use back then. Only his closest friends knew about it. The media hid it well. He wore his Navy velvet jacket today & I had to smile. It's one of my favorites. "Still Looking Good"!
MariposaLKB 03-23-2001, 10:41 AM I just finished watching the episode where Chico moves out, and I think there were more signs than just weight loss that he was failing. I agree the story line about staying out late was probably a cover, but look close at his face--it looks as though they were putting alot more make-up that was way too dark on him, and his eyes already look sort of sunken in. Plus, his nose looks weird--this is where I got my question in an earlier message re: if it had ever been broken. Someone said maybe it had collapsed due to cocaine? I've seen that explanation elsewhere, too.
On to happier thoughts--I would have loved to watch him do almost anything a man does to fix himself up for the day! I have a scene in my story (HAVE YOU READ IT YET?!)like that. And as much as I dislike smoking, I would have put up with it in his case!
The blue velvet jacket was the greatest--congrats to the wardrobe person who picked it! And thanx for the votes for "chicote". Now, what did we want to talk about re: that?
[This message has been edited by MariposaLKB (edited 03-23-2001).]
Pitooey 03-23-2001, 07:54 PM I see what you mean when you say his nose looked broken. He even looked like he was in a fight of some sort. His under eyes looked so black. Signs of staying up all night. I never knew a nose could collapse from drug use. I heard that a person could get holes inside their nostrels but a collapsed nose? Has anyone else heard of this? --- When I was younger I saw none of that. I was so young. All I saw was my huge crush Chico..... Well he is gone but, not forgotten..... On to the Chicote pants! WHHHOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOO!
MariposaLKB 03-23-2001, 08:29 PM I've heard of celebrities having to have surgery on their noses to repair the damage from too much cocaine. I'm not sure if the correct term for what happens is "collapsing", but I think that's what I read in a couple of different places re: Freddie and also others. Maybe the writer just meant a hole had formed. In any case,
it's going to be difficult to watch CATM from here until Freddie's last episode--all I can pay attention to is his deterioration.
Someone else will have to take over the "chicote" discussion for now--I'm getting too depressed!
Esmerelda 03-23-2001, 08:43 PM I knowwhat you mean=-I was so depressed after watching this am's episode I cried!!
I usually watch the video tapea few times during the course of the day-today I just couldn't-it was just too painful.He just looked sooo thin and his face looked splotchy and drawn-I even noticed how thin his beautiful hands looked-I never remember seeing that when the shows first aired-guess I was just too much in love at that time to notice-ah yes there is something to be said for the naievity(?sp) of youth!!!
Even his pants were baggy-not even a good shot at chicote!
One thing that I thought was weird-watch the opening credits-Freddie co-wrote the episode.
Isn't that strange??? Kind of prophetic,don't you think?? The on screen life and the off screen life were mirrored.
Poor Freddie!! You're right Mariposa, it will be difficult to watch now but at least we have each other to help us get through it-Thank God for al of you wonderful friends===
Esmerelda
MariposaLKB 03-23-2001, 08:59 PM Yeah, I noticed the baggy pants, too, but only in the rear. I didn't think chicote was affected--no amount of weight loss could do anything to diminish that! Mmmmm!!! Thanx, I feel a little better now, but only a little--I didn't notice the hands (at least not the fact that they were looking worse), but I did notice that he still seemed able to dance rather provocatively!
GEEZ LOUISE WE'RE ONTO PAGE 5!!!!!
We need our own website!
P. S. Should "chicote" be capitalized?
[This message has been edited by MariposaLKB (edited 03-23-2001).]
Esmerelda 03-23-2001, 10:08 PM Capitalized- YOU GOT IT!!!!
IT SHOULD BE CAPITALIZED,UNDERLINED AND BRONZED!!!!
i FEEL BETTER AFTER READING YOUR POST,TOO-AT LEAST WE CAN BOUNCE OFF EACH OTHER.
I NOTICED SOMETHING ELSE(GUESS YOU CAN TELL THAT I REALLY PAY ATTENTION TO DETAIL,HUH?)
DID YOU EVER NOTICE THE CUTE FOOT SHUFFLE HE HAS WHEN HE WALKS-SO ADORABLE!
Guess it's up to all of us to keep
Freddie's memory alive and well land living in
Club Hubba Hubba!!!
What we should try to do is focus on the positive I guess but we can always vent to each other as well-it always helps to have people around you that think the way you do and understand the things that make us happy and also those that make us sad-ON TO PAGE 6,7,8.ETC,ETC,OKAY???
LOVE,
Esmerelda
MariposaLKB 03-23-2001, 10:59 PM You think you pay attention to detail? I drive myself crazy watching the taped episodes as closely as I can manage, to take in everything about the appearance, the mannerisms (including the sexy strut, yeah!), the speech, everything about Freddie. I guess that's because I feel it so strongly that there will never be any more. I know you all feel the same way, and I love communicating all this with you.
OK, I'm gonna stop depressing everybody now--there were some happy moments in the episode shown today. When his girlfriend told Chico to "Turn something on" (a light), the way he said,"That's what I'm trying to do!" and went to kiss her just melted me! And when he started speaking FRENCH--Oh my God! And I already mentioned the dancing! Let's continue along those lines, shall we?

Esmerelda 03-23-2001, 11:23 PM Sounds good to me!! positive is always best!!
OH yes-french,spanish-you name it-he is sexy in any language!!!
sPEAKING OF THE TONGUE=check out the episode where Chico is dating Marilyn-check out the lip lock-and yes I dO believe that gorgeous tongue was used in that scene!!!
I agree about the detail stuff-I think the same way you do-memorize it because that's all there is!! I'm so happy that someone understands-mostpeople think that I'm losing it because of my love for FP but he was such a big part of my young adulthood that I simply can't forget him-you know?? Anyway on to brighter things like CHICOTE,okay?? But we know that if we ever need to vent or be sad we can do that too!!!

MariposaLKB 03-23-2001, 11:44 PM Pardon my ignorance--I love Freddie as much as someone who saw the whole series back in the 70's, has carried a torch all these years, and has seen all the episodes on TVLand now--but I must admit I don't know everything. Who was Marilyn? In what episode?
P. S. Chicote bronzed? It already was--he was a bronze god all over!

Karen64 03-24-2001, 12:45 AM Speaking of Chicote..anyone ever notice Chico, while standing idly, would frequently place his thumbs just inside the front of his belt and drape his hands down over his fly? Nervous habit, or a subliminal way to draw attention to you-know-what (and boost ratings), perhaps instigated by the producers of the show? LOL! Ya never know!
Long live CATM reruns!
Pitooey 03-24-2001, 12:53 AM Esmerelda - I noticed Freddie's thin wrists and hands too. I had a lump in my throat when I saw him. I think we should discuss about the down times too. I had never spoken to anyone about my feelings before. Freddie sure broke alot of hearts but, he's in peace now. - I'll always remember the way he first was when he started the show.... On to Happier times!!!! Butterfly! You're right!!! CHICOTE never lost weight!
MariposaLKB 03-24-2001, 01:04 AM Are you kidding? I noticed the thing with the thumbs in the belt like immediately! And of course he did it on purpose! Nervous, maybe--I never know where to put my hands when I'm in front of a group (like he was with a live audience), but I would never draw attention to such a part of myself unless I was TRYING to get all the members of the opposite sex in that group to think of me as sexy! Which I would never have the confidence to carry off, but Freddie had it in spades and with AMPLE reason!
Oh my God--I just turned on the TV and I see you're right--his arms were so thin! And he seemed to be sweating alot in the closeups. I agree with JennyLee22, we need to get this bad stuff out of our systems, too.

Esmerelda 03-24-2001, 01:40 AM The episode with Marilyn was the one where chico was going to get married, mando got him the ring and he gave it to her on her keychain. Marilyn broke his heart because she wanted to wait for someone more successful He gave her a lip lock that was not to be believed-chck it out!!!
I guess we have to discuss both good and bad-as long as we discuss,right??

Tracy-Prinze 03-24-2001, 04:53 AM it was good to see freddie get credit for writing but so sad to see he was hurting inside and no one to reach out to. we can see
he needed help, why the people around him
could not. Tony Orlando's wife got help for
tony, elaine flew tony on a private jet to
a hospital. The hospital was not the place he
wanted to be so he checked himself into the
waldolf-astoria hotel (not sure of the correct spelling)in new york. It is a d---n
shame freddie did not have anyone to love
and care for him. If we all had been there,
I know we have enough love and strength to
have pulled him through. let's be strong for
each other and freddie over these next few
episodes. TO FREDDIE: WE AT ON THE MESSAGE
BOARD LOVE YOU WITH ALL
OUR HEARTS.

Luckymama58 03-24-2001, 07:32 AM You know, I couldn't wait to see this episode because it explained how Chico moved out of the van and into the storeroom.(something I wondered about and missed during the marathon). But I, too, found it a hard episode to watch. Not so much for his physical problems,that was hard enough, but I was more upset with his anger at Ed. This episode was a cry for help, I'm sure. This will be a hard season to watch. I'll probably watch some of the first two seasons in between to keep my spirits up. It's great we have our fellow Hubbas to laugh and cry with. PS I love the name Chicote, very fitting. PPS I always thought the Marilyn kiss was His personal best. After it aired I played that section of the tape over(and over, and over, and over, well you get the point) My only complaints are that it wasn't long enough (the duration, not the tongue) and it wasn't me. But I can tell you that THAT kiss inspired many erotic dreams. Well, I'd better take a really cold shower now.
Tracy-Prinze 03-24-2001, 03:26 PM HI, LUCKYMAMA
THAT IS SO TRUE THAT EPISODE WAS A
SERIOUS CRY FOR HELP, THE ANGER HE HAD ON
ED IS NOTHING COMPARING TO THE ANGER HE TOOK
OUT ON DELLA. WATCH THE EPISODE WITH ROSIE
GRIER. WHEN YOU WATCH THE LAST FEW EPISODES
GO BACK AND WATCH THE FIRST AND SECOND
SEASONS, IT WILL HELP OUR PAIN JUST A LITTLE,
REMEMBER WE HAVE EACH OTHER.
STAY STRONG LUCKYMAMA.

Pitooey 03-24-2001, 05:19 PM Does anybody know how many episodes Freddie wrote? I agree he had alot of anger and it was pouring out on that episode. (He moved out & possibly in real life he moved to his apartment at that time).
Pitooey 04-01-2001, 07:22 PM I hate the weekends. No Freddie on T.V. No Looking good, No nothing, & now we have to wait until 5:00 A.M. to continue to see the episodes. They've done a real injustice to his fans. I have to whip out my tapes to get my TV Land Freddie satisfaction. He sure was Looking good!!!!!
catcopy18 04-01-2001, 10:46 PM I just noticed that in my time zone which is
the central time, CATM will be on at 4 a.m.
I don't know how to program my VCR to come on automatically so I'm going to have to learn FAST! I also realized that CATM won't
be on here at 4 a.m. tomorrow because they will still be showing GET SMART fandemonium.
I will have to wait until Tuesday! Does that
mean that I will be missing a whole episode?

Cheryl Harrell 04-02-2001, 02:41 AM Looks like they won't be showing CHICO on Mondays. http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/frown.gif
Luckymama58 04-02-2001, 05:30 AM Yea, I just got up at five for nothing. I went to TVLand.com and it looks like it is running Tues through Saturday am's. We need to deluge tvland mail room with angry e-mails of protest. Tell your friends, tell your loved ones. Recrute enemies, I don't care. I have HAD IT with TVLand!!!!!I checked the schedule against the list of episodes on this site and it looks like we will get all of the Freddie episodes, but beyond that, tvland ain't talking. ARE YOU WITH ME!!!
Cheryl Harrell 04-02-2001, 09:17 AM My friend the singer, one of his friends has a website on him & I wrote on there starting a topic asking folks to write TVLAND asking them to move CHICO to a better timeslot. The topic quickly turned into a jokey one LOL! Topics do go jokey on there alot LOL! Hopefully that will bring a little more attention to our plight. Good luck!
