Now dont get me wrong, I love her character Jo. But doesnt she seem to be a very selfish person, first of all I heard back in 1984 she threatened to leave the show if they didnt increase her salery, they eventually did raise her salery, so she stayed on. Now there's this, she wont do the reunion because she doesnt want to spoil her new image, if it wasnt for FOL she wouldnt have a career to begin with. Maybe if she seen what her character Jo means to a lot of people she would reconsider, and would do the reunion.

i mean, it's all a part of being famous. how do you know what was going on? i mean, maybe the other girls were getting payed more cuz they were on the show longer? you cant just jump to conclusions like that. and now, i dont really agree with this, but maybe she feels like FOL since it has almost been 20 years since she started on it, it's time to put it behind her and she wants to go on with her life.

all i am saying is that you cant just say that she's selfish when you dont know why these things happened! you cant assume cuz it makes an ass out of U and ME!

JO: Now, Natalie, when you hear these voices, are they friendly?

Look, none of us know Nancy so how can we say she is selfish?

I saw the True E! Hollywood Special and her agent said that she was making the absolute minimum for her first four years on FOL and the network was making millions off the show. All four of the girls eventually got pay raises but believe me it was nothing compared to what the top sitcom actors are pulling in these days.

I wish that she would make an appearance in the reunion show, too, because I never liked the way they ended the show and always thought it lacked the proper closure. But apparently she has her reasons for not doing so and I will respect her wishes.

While I wish she would appear in the Reunion (If there is ever going to be one) I don't believe Nancy McKeon is selfish considering how hard it is to be taken seriously after a long running show like FOL. Actors get typecast and never get a chance to prove how good they really are because directors and producers can only see them as THAT one character.

Also, Nancy refused to do the first two episodes of the season because she was getting paid very little, considering the success of the show. What she did prompted not only a raise in HER salary, but a raise in all four of the girl's salary. So what she did was put her foot down to greedy NBC executives.

So like I said before, I wish she would return...yet I will respect her decision either way because she has to live her life in a way that seems best for her.

Just my two cents. http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif

*Jo and Blair rule!*

Nat: Look Jo if you don't get this scholarship you're gonna be back in the BRONX running around with the little pueblos!
Jo: Young Diablos!

BLAIR: Take them off JO!! I dont want to fail!
Jo: will you read my editorial?
Blair: YES!
JO: You PROMISE?
Blair: YES!!
JO: You SWEAR??
Blair: YESS!!!
Jo: i dont believe you (Ducks back under desk with a grin)

(Blair, Tootie and Jo laughing at Natalie)
Natalie: What?
(Continue to laugh)
Natalie: What?!
(Takes off her hat and looks at it)
Natalie: Oh good! Good!! I’m loosin’ a bolt! I’m working half wattage here!!

***Every Jo needs a Blair!***

Nat: A flash back within a flashback....! I'm so brilliant it scares me!

If it wasnt for FOL Nancy would not have a career today. Like it or not, Jo was the most popular character on the show, and killing her off would disappoint a lot of people. Is it asking so much of her to take a little time out of her schedule to do a reunion for the show that made her career....no, and thats why I think she is selfish.

All I want to say is that if Nancy doesn't want ot do the reunion she doesn't have to. I mean it really wouldn't be a reunion without all the main charactors there and what would be the point of having a reunion with only 3 main charactors there. (Kim Fields is not doing it either) But if Nancy made other commitments before she got offered to do the reunion show then she should do those. But I would really like to see her at the reunion but preferably not dead.

http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/mad.gif I really wish that Nancy would appear in the upcoming reunion movie. But, after all, it is her choice. If she doesn't, she'll upsent ALOT of people. Jo was the best character in the show, you can't just leave her out! She was the one that kept the show interesting. It makes no sense. How hard could it be took take a time out and STAR in a movie?!

i dont believe that this is true because Nancy got her career started when she was only two. true, FOL did help her career quiet a bit, but i still believe she would have made it even without the help of FOL. Nancy McKeon is a great actress and i would really like it if she came to the reunion show, but if she choses not to, i will respect that. i also believe that those of you who do think she is selfish because she has her reasons for not doing the show are selfish yourselves!

In the words of Jo Polniaczek herself," I've been in meat lockers that were warmer."
Everybody just take a deep breath... now regarding Nancy McKeon being selfish, I do understand how she could be taken that way, but we are not in her shoes. Given ,the reunion will not be the same without her but if that's how it's gonna be, than we will have to live with it I guess. It's her choice, but that does'nt mean we have to give up hope. Keep your chins high.

"It was just like Saturday Night Fever, except it was a Friday."

Does she have an e-mail address??? I would like to ask her myself why she isnt doing the reunion. If its for a good reason I will respect her decision.

Stanley Roper: I'm sorry Jack

Jack Tripper: Oh, thats ok, what did you do?

Roper: Me? Nothing, I just thought I saw something that wasnt normal, because it was normal, but, now I can see it aint normal, so, everything's back to normal again.

Jack: oh, well, I'm glad for you.

Nancy isn't exactly selfish,she just feels she has left FOL behind her.True,it did help her career immensely and if it weren't for her years as Jo,she might not have been in all the other things she has been in-but she just considers the show part of her past and doesn't feel she could return to that part.I wouldn't like the idea of a FOL reunion anyhow if that was the case.Too many of these reunion shows fail to capture the spirit of the old show-and if Nancy doesn't want to return to FOL-let there be NO reunion show about Jo being dead!COME ON,NOW!

only thing I don't get is why Nancy and Kim are both too "proud" to do a reunion for this show simply because they both had careers after Facts went off the air.

I think it is sad that Kim and Nancy are still remembering the 1988 pact about no reunion. Forgetting that Lisa, Mindy, Charlotte and millions of fans want this reunion.

Do a reunion for this show before it gets too late (ala Diff'rent Strokes will probably never have a reunion considering Dana Plato is dead) and all of the key actors should play in it.

Nancy might have a respectable tv movie career, but a Facts reunion would put her back in the news. People still love the show, and a reunion could boost the careers of everyone involved, as well as raise their profiles. The entire cast needs this reunion IMO.

see, that's the thing, nancy doesnt need a career boost. she is co-starring in a tv series on lifetime network starting in january7th and her amazing acting ability can find her many more jobs to come!

as my dad would say, you can wish in one hand and live in the other (kinda like that "rodSterrling" guy with the fuzzy dice-reality or fantasy) of course we can all wish that nancy and kim would do the reunion, but we have to give them their rightful space i mean common! they are just regular people!

i am sorry if i am being rude about any of this.

She cant escape it!!! She will always be thought of as "Jo, from The Facts of Life". Of course she will have her other projects, but if you go up to someone on the street and ask "who is Nancy McKeon?" If they even know who she is they will reply "wasnt she on The Facts of Life" and when she has passed away years from now, she will be remembered by the world as "Jo" and thats a fact. Nancy do the show for the fans!

Jack: oh, well, I'm glad for you.

I know, there are certain people who just cannot escape their image from a long-running show. It is possible though. Not a whole lot of people think of Michael J. Fox as "Alex from Family Ties" some people do, but now he's got Spin City, not to mention the Back to the Future movies. Other argument to that, Ricky Schroeder? Still Ricky from Silver Spoons, not the new guy on NYPD Blue. I think I forgot what we're talking about.... oh yeah! I don't think she's going to shake that image, and a reunion wouldn't hurt. Only people who are faithful to the show would watch it, it's not like this whole new audience is going to see her as Jo and suddenly make the connection. HOWEVER, I respect that she doesn't want to do it. It's her decision and she can do what she wants. It won't be the same without her though.

well, I just want Nancy to commit to it because this is the perfect time to reunite. All of them are still healthy and the show has picked up a whole new audience of fans thinks to Nick At Nite. Right now, Facts "nostalgia" is very hot so it'd be the right time to get back together. Plus, Charlotte Rae is not getting any younger (she is 74 years young). Not trying to be morbid, but you never know how much longer she will be around.

Nancy might hate being typecast as Jo. But I don't think she realizes just how much people love Jo. She is busy and may have "outgrown" the show, but it's not like she is Tom Hanks (Bosom Buddies), Denzel Washington (St. Elsewhere) or Bruce Willis (Moonlighting) who seriously has enough box office and "name" clout that they don't need to go back and do a tv reunion of their old tv shows.

I dunno. I respect Nancy for maintaining a career and everything since The Facts, but still... I don't think she realizes just how well-loved Jo is.

For many people,no matter what she has done or will do,Nancy will always be Jo.I think she's a good actress and performer,but when enough people see you in one role they cannot see you in another role and completely forget the earlier role.

(That's why Ron Howard and others continued their film careers on the other side of the camera.)

I loved Jo and saw loads of FOL episodes,but that show is in rerun heaven now,and maybe there are some shows that cannot be revived because they are products of their time.(The producer of Family Ties said there would be no reunion for that show,since it was a show of the 80s.)

Nancy Mckeon is not selfish! when she wanted a raise, she deserved it! dont you see how the ratings went up when she joined the cast? she raised the ratings, therefore she rightfully deserved that raise. the show needed to add some spice to it, and jo (nancy) was it. if the character jo wasnt created, then i think the series would have probably been short lived. i mean werent the first season eps just a bit boring? would you have kept watching it if they just kept the same cast? they were just, well they got along most of the time, and there were no big fights like someone is mad at someone else because they heard someone did something. that didnt start until 2nd season. and i heard that nancy is gonna be in the reunion, she just has to decide if she wants to be dead or alive.

Hello,

As to Nancy being selfish, I don't really think that's the case. I also believe that she has moved past FOL. I am disappointed that she doesn't want to do the movie, and Kim Fields as well. I hope that they don't kill any of the characters,(although if one did die, that would be a "sad" excuse(sorry the pun) to get everyone back together.

In other news, this may be Lisa(Blair's) chance to get back to acting. I know she's said that she wanted to go back to acting eventually, this may be her perfect opportunity to get back into the spotlight.

Who knows what's going to happen or if they're going to do it at all. I just hope that they don't kill any members of the cast off or use a new actress for one of the cast.

When a new actor is used, it disrupts the unity of the cast. I remember in the Brady Bunch movies, a new Marsha, Jan or Cindy changed the whole dynamic of the show. Please don't do that to FOL.

Take care everyone http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif
Amy

Has it been decided yet whether or not Nancy will be dead or alive...? If it hasn't why don't we write her agent and explain to them how much the show meant to us and how much 'Jo' meant as well. It couldn't hurt, and if you all agree to this I will post the adress as soon as possible. http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif

---------------------

Blair: I don't get it. There is a guy downstairs completly ignoring me.
Jo: And they said it couldn't be done.

Nancy sent someone a reply stating that she (Jo) was not going to die in the movie.

Well AMEN to that! The movie just wouldn't be the same without her. I hope she appears in it just as often as the rest and that Jo and Blair get into it like old times! I'm happy now that it has been decided that Jo won't die! now hopefully Kim Fields will return!

You guys, there are different opinions going around about the movie and at this point we really don't know whats going to happen. Let's just wait until we find out more information so we don't put ideas into anyones heads. She might die, she might not....who knows....lets just forget it until we find more info.

I am normally a HUGE Nancy McKeon fan, but I have to agree that she is being selfish. Why can't she at least make a brief cameo appearance? Elizabeth Berkeley made a 30-second appearance at the wedding reception in the Saved By The Bell reunion movie because she was working on other projects and could not make the entire movie.

Sarah, Nancy has agreed to make a cameo, we just don't know if it will be in a coffin or not-hopefully not. There is supposedly a chance she will be in the whole move, schedule premitting.

Sorry , but you guys get too into your shows. SO what is Nancy doesn't want to do the show, get a replacement. I know what your thinking "No one can replace Jo...blah,blah,blah" But if she doesn't want too, GET SOMEONE THAT LOOKS LIKE HER, AND THAT IS A GOOD ACTRESS! GEt over it! And that's a fact. Pardon the Pun.

First of all Nancy McKeon was modleing for the New York Times and Sears catologs. At the age of 2 and pizza comercials and cerial. And they asked her so she is not selfish she was tired of not getting payed.

Silver, we don't get 'too' into our shows, we would just love to see the whole cast back together. Especially Nancy because to most people 'Jo made the show'.
I personally don't want anyone to replace Nancy as Jo because that wouldn't feel right. It's Nancy's decision though and I will respect it.
I still would love to see her in it though http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif

Jack: oh, well, I'm glad for you.

. i really dont care about Jo so im not in this one. I meen I have to agree shes selfish for threatining to leave the show if they dont raise the salary. To me if I was the director I wouldnt raise it. I would fire her. Shes not relly important and SHE DOES NOT RUN THE SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!! only the four original characters do. Mrs.G, Blair, Tootie, and Natalie. ( Well mrs g leeaves) And ruin her new type? ( Laughs hard ) Nancy thinks that will ruin her! Nancy got her "so called famous career" from The facts of lIfe! and this is how she repays tghe show by being in a cffin during the reuniuin? Well Please! http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/rolleyes.gif

I alwayz hated her

Nancy isn't selfish, and she had a right to a raise! She was making the minimum, and deserved more! Not long after that did every girl request a raise, and they all got it. Nancy just led the way!
Oh, and I don't see people calling Kim Fields selfish... She doesn't care to do the reunion either because she doesn't want to ruin her 'cutsie' image. Tootie didn't ahve a 'cutsie' image in the last few seasons, she grew up! So why aren't we jumping Kim as well?
Nancy never CLAIMED to run the show, or to be the star of it. According to all the interviews I've read she's just real shy, and didn't even talk to that many people on the set until her second season there and much persuaing from Lisa Whelchel.
Oh yeah, and her parents probably had something to do with that 'raise' request. I mean, she wasn't legally an adult when she asked for it, so you know there was some influence somewhere in there.
Nancy has a new series now and is more than likely busy. And no one knows FOR SURE whether or not Jo will be dead, so we souldn't be jumping to conclusions and making assumptions about someonewe've never even met!

Let's just wait and see what happens...

First off, this is way cool that I found this site! It's great to chat about all these old shows!!!

When I first heard the Jo kill off rumor, I was screaming say-it-ain't-so!!!!! I grew up with the show and I was definately the "Jo" in my group of friends, so I really had a personal connection is a way.

After thinking about it for a week or so, I realized that it's not Nancy McKeon I loved so much. Frankly, some of her made for tv movies kind of suck. It's the character she portrayed that I love. And I decided that I would rather have a memory of what the character meant to me growing up than a forced performance (as reunion shows often feel like) by an actress who is no longer interested in playing the role.

As for the money thing back in the '80's, hey, nothing wrong with looking out for #1. I myself have gone to my employer and have demanded a raise if they want to keep me around. It's the way things work. For whatever reason, people seem to think that contract negotiations and salries of actors/actresses are our business. I'm here to tell you - they aren't!!!

Long post for a first timer! Sorry!

I just finished reading TheFactsofLife's reply and I could'nt help but laugh. After trying to decipher the spelling and grammar, I noticed that you stand by your opinion that the character of Jo did'nt matter. And quote, 'SHE DOES NOT RUN THE SHOW!!!!!!!!!'.
I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with you. No, of course she did'nt run the show, but she sure as hell had to do with the ratings boost in season 2. I'm certain you would'nt have seen Blair, Nat, Tootie, and Mrs G for very much longer without her.
Now I respect your opinion, but that's like saying the Fonz did'nt matter to Happy Days. I don't even like the Fonz that much, but I admit that Happy Days wouldnt be Happy Days without him.
The same with Jo and 'The Facts Of Life'.
I already said my peace about Nancy McKeon being selfish or not in a previous post, so i'm not going to get into that. But hey, just like what ks said, 'Let's just see what happens'...


------------------
"It was just like Saturday Night Fever, except it was a Friday."

I agree. You really can't replace Nancy McKeon. That just would not be right.She is my favorite person on the facts of life!!!

Coily, welcome to the Board. You made some great points about Nancy. Although I loved her as Jo and will check out 'The Division', I haven't been super crazy about any of her Valerie Bertinelli-ish type woman in peril movies that she has done since. I wasn't able to catch either of her two other short lived sitcoms.

I agree that I would much rather NOT see Nancy come back as Jo if her heart is not really into doing the reunion. I think a recast or a reluctant actress would just tarnish a great character.

Lisa is better than Nancy. Ks I understand you like her buty you must agree that Nancy did threaten the show by trying to leave by ordering a higher sALARY. Thats selfish. She did try to say that she runs the show once and thats not nice.

I don't know what Nancy is going to do, but if she does come back to do the reunion I fell she will give it her all.
FOL launched her acting career and from everything I read she is very thankful for that and appreciates them giving her a chance. I hope she does come back, and IF she does I know she'll give it 110%.

*There's always room for hope* http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif

But..everyone is forgeting the even more pressing question!
Will CINDY be back for the reunion? What about cool-headed Nancy Olsen? And the one and only Sue Ann Weaver??!!?? You can't have a reunion without THEM. Think about Sue Ann's major effect on the plots!
http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/wink.gif
Just a bit of humor to lighten things up. I hope Jo is back and alive..but remember,they replaced Maj.Tony Nelson in BOTH "I Dream of Jeannie" reunion movies. The first one did well,if I can recall. I love Jo,and like Nancy McKeon,but I don't have to have both in a movie.

I like your post! I laughed when I saw it. That is too funny. However there is truth to that. I would sure like to see the original girl make a cameo. Of course we all know that Molly Ringwald will not be in it. That would be great. If Nancy comes back she'll probably still be married to Roger and they'll be raising their almost 14 year old high school freshman.

TheFactsOfLife, when did Nancy claim to run the show? I haven't heard anything about this...are there any articles I can read or anything concerning this topic?
I understand she demanded to leave if she didn't get a raise, but like I said in one of my previous posts, she did have a pretty good reason for it, and all the other girls followed shortly after http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif
I don't know who's better- Lisa or Nancy. I think it comes natural for Lisa and Nancy has taking many acting courses. Someone who I think most people tend to leave out is Kim Fields. I was amazed at how she could keep a straight face and deliver such funny lines at such a young age. http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif

Please let me know if there are any articles I can read concerning the topic which you brought up http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif Thanks!

So CLASSIC TV MAN? YOu think no one can replace Nancy, when in the begining you were saying she was selfish!?!? It doesn't make sense!

I don't this Nancy McKeon is selfish just because she wont return to the Facts of Life.I read some where she dont want to return because she don't wont to relive puberty.Who can blame her.Even though it would be nice to see her as Jo again.I totally respect her desision.And as far as her wanting more money to do the Facts of Life.I think she needed to get more money because she was a big part of the show and the Facts of Life was doing really well and making alot of money.Be sure to watck Nancy in tha Facts of Life and the Division.

I think it's rude to say someone's selfish, when you didn't even know her! Rumors go around all the time! Who knows, maybe she has a good reason for all those things! Classic TV Man, you just suspect the worst out of people.

Does anyone agree with me?

Loys of you think nancy is selfish for not doing a cameo as a dead Jo! well maybe nancy has better things to worry about then playing dead. She is a good actress and her decision to do the show or not is up to her (but i hope she does it!)

Nancy McKeon isn't the only one who wants to move away from being typecasted as her old character Jo.

You see, It's also happened with Allysa Milano cause Allysa Milano doesn't want to relive her old character of Sam on Who's the Boss. And also, Tiffany Amber Theisen is still attempting to move away from her cutesy character of Kelly from Saved by the Bell.
And lets not forget Ricky Shroder from Silver Spoons!!!

So there we got it, Nancy McKeon suffers from the Allysa Milano syndrome!!!

Now dont get me wrong, I love her character Jo. But doesnt she seem to be a very selfish person, first of all I heard back in 1984 she threatened to leave the show if they didnt increase her salery, they eventually did raise her salery, so she stayed on. Now there's this, she wont do the reunion because she doesnt want to spoil her new image, if it wasnt for FOL she wouldnt have a career to begin with. Maybe if she seen what her character Jo means to a lot of people she would reconsider, and would do the reunion. it is stupid people like you that make me hate this bored sometimes! Don't make claims like the one you just made without knowing all the facts! Nancy knows what her character meant to people....but she has every right to not do the reunion movie especialy since at the shows end all the cast members vowed never to do one. she stuck by her word....and more power to her. and about the salary thing, she deserved more money!

oh and by the way....John Lennon is dead as a door nail

LOL!

I just read back on this post. I disagree with Nancy McKeon being selfish..I mean The Facts of Life reunion thing was her decision. She does not want to be just remembered as Jo Polniazek..her big break. Also when NMK started TD..it started as a great opportunity for her to make a big break again. To be remembered as her new character in her popular show as character Inspector JiI understand that people got upset that Nancy wasnt gonna be in FOL reunion..yeah i was too it wasnt the same. But I hate to say it but I didnt think the reunion movie was well thought out to begin with..it wasnt a great job they did. Not the characters..the directors and all. NMK also recently had a baby girl named Aurora and the show TheDivision shes in..she wasnt even gonna do a 5th season because she wanted to spend some time off and all. She wanted alot less drama in her life. But..the ratings have been great for Nancy and alot of people look up to her. The next thing ya know shes doing a 5th season. I dont think thats selfish..
And as for her FOL demanding for a higher salary..well she did come in cast in 2nd season. BUT I really think they werent paying her well because of that..and the RATINGS went UP^^ when she joined..she made the show better. okaY just wanted to share my opinion x0x0Jessie aka Jo/nmk/jinny
