I had no idea that there was a reunion show.
When does it air? I hope that it is just a bad rumor that Nancy can't make it. She is incredible! She was my favorite!

So is the reunion going to go ahead?

Please Nancy if your reading , make an appearance, we all luv ya

There is going to be a reunion show sometime next year. The reunion show will revolve around Jo's death. If Nancy makes an apperence, it will most likely be in a coffin http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/frown.gif

Members,

Why, would Nancy McKean 'Jo' be dead? Tell us, more about the plot of the reunion movie?

I can't believe that Nancy wouldnt want to come back for the reunion where did everyone hear all this from? JO dead? That is very sad if she ends up dead that will have to be the saddest reunion ever!!

the facts of life are all about you

It takes a lot to get them right
when you learning the facts of life

I hope Nancy does the reunion show. I don't think they should have one if not all can make it cause to me there would be no purpose to it..not just cause Nancy is my favorite but because it just wouldn't be the same with any of the girls missing. I think that if Nancy doesn't do a reunion it will be because she is too busy with other things or new projects (that are not willing to wait). This is the first time i have ever heard of a reunion but I am not gonna get too excited til i see it happen for real..

It's true about the reunion. Lisa Whelchel shared some of the events of the reunion show. For instance, Kim Fields will not be in it. It looks like someone else will be playing Tootie.

Yes, Nancy McKeon will be making the coffin appearence due to all the number 1 fans. But I think they should have kicked off Beverly, not Jo. When the reunion show comes out, I hope the first episode will be cool, since there hasn't been an episode since 1988.

Isn't this reunion a regular two hour TV movie (like they've just done for Growing Pains)??

When I first heard that there was going to be an FOL reunion, I got all excited, but then I heard about the whole Jo thing. This is only what I had heard, but supposedly Nancy didn't even want anything to do w/ the reunion because she has tried to sort of "seperate" herself from when she was on FOL for the sake of her career now, and then they finally convinced her just to do the cameo and she came up with the Jo dying idea. I just hope that by some chance, that maybe she'll change her mind!
BTW this is totally off topic, but did anyone see that Women Rock special on Lifetime a few weeks ago? I watched part of it(it was a big benefit concert w/diff. female artists) and Nancy was one of the presenter/announcer people. Just thought I'd share!

This is so bogus!

Nancy McKean should do this all the way. She shouldn't care what what this will do to her career -- because, if she is a good actress it will not matter.

It would probably help her career, honestly, she hasnt done anything of note since FOL...she wont be spoiling any new image for she doesnt have any new image to begin with, she'll always just be known as Jo, from the "Facts Of Life", and thats a "fact"!!!! (that pun was actually intended)

Actually, Nancy has done lots of work since the FOL. You should check out the IMDB board. It shows the list of work.

I can understand if Nancy won't do the the reunion show. She is one hell of an actress
whether or not she does The Facts of life reunion show. People... please put yourself
in Nancy's or anyone elses position. What would you do? I think she should go for anything she can get. If she has a family, I
think she should think about them first.

ThomasE,

I didnt say she hasn't done anything since then, I said she hasn't done anything of "note"!!! In other words she isn't a big star!

Nancy also supposedly has a new series that she is in on Lifetime, called City Lights I think? and she is busy working on it, so she says she can't do a major role in the reunion, but like I said before, who knows what is really gonna happen?
Steph

"City Lights" is an old Charlie Chaplin movie.

How can she die? She is the best character!!!!

it's really sad, but how come they can have someone else play tootie but not jo?? it certainly wouldnt be the same, but at least it would be better that nothing!
Jo

man.. I wonder who would play tootie ?? I wish Kim Fields would do it.. blah, maybe if they bribed her! LOL..

one of my friends likes the facts of life as much as i do and she wrote nancy mckeon a letter and she wrote back and said there not completely sure that shes going to die .
and to she would have to have gotten a new motorcycle because in an episode where they are fixing up the attic and jo cant come up with her share and she has to because it was her idea. she sold her bike and helment her dad gave her. to hank has anyone else seen this ep it was on last night friday dec 1st

Yeah I was thinking about that as she sold the bike. I thought it was so sweet how Blair moved Jo's bed over and Jo wouldn't say how she got the money and Blair wouldn't say why she moved the bed but they just gave each other that look like thanks. I liked that alot. I also thought she's had a few years and probably a job so she could have gotten another motorcycle. So your friend actually received a letter back from Nancy Mckeon- that's cool!

I love that scene, like I say...they're best friends and really care about each other. Simply great characters.
