At the time, I think she was living in France. But if she saw them, I can see that being her reaction.

I remember the Blair/Tootie Project ones with Lisa Whelchel spoofing the scared girl in the toboggan with the video camera up close in the dark, and the animated skate rolling over with creepy squeaky wheels to the center of the screen for the logo.
Yeah, that was by far the most memorable one (and I seem to recall there were many variations). Lisa was such a good sport!

It drives me crazy because I can't remember most of the lines in that bumper, but it was hilarious, and it's not on YouTube!!!

Sadly, no. DECADES does not really have a sense of humor. I have not seen only funny commercial advertising their shows, like it’s competitors do. It’s a shame...missed opportunities!

Those Blair/Tootie Project promos I remember vaguely, it’s be awesome if someone dig them up!

I'm a cord cutter so Decades is one of my favorite channels. About 3 months ago my local Decades channel became some stupid, sexist garbage station that only shows late 1990's-2000's female dramas. So no more Decades for me.

That really is a shame. Oh well. Thanks for the reply.

Hmmm, was it maybe something like:

"No Cindy, Sue Ann, or Nancy---and no Molly Ringwald."

I dunno, maybe something like that?

Or maybe something like: "With Blair, Natalie, Tootie, and Jo---but no Molly Ringwald."

I'm pretty sure it was the latter. I don't remember if Cindy, Sue Ann, or Nancy were even mentioned by name, even though one of the clips had Sue Ann's "rest of your life in the basement" line. I know they poked fun at Molly disappearing, and at the end, they said ...but no Molly Ringwald."

YEP! It just rests at the back of your memory, never entirely going away.

From that link, the Sunday episodes are:

"The Interview Show" summary: Elizabeth's new romance has ripple effects on Victoria and Al.
"Out of the Fire" summary: Elizabeth's new romance has ripple effects on Victoria and Al.
"Into the Frying Pan" summary: Elizabeth's new romance has ripple effects on Victoria and Al.
"Grand Opening" summary: Elizabeth's new romance has ripple effects on Victoria and Al.
"Teacher, Teacher" summary: Elizabeth's new romance has ripple effects on Victoria and Al.
"Men for All Seasons" summary: Elizabeth's new romance has ripple effects on Victoria and Al.
"A New Life" summary: Elizabeth's new romance has ripple effects on Victoria and Al.
"Doo Wah" summary: Elizabeth's new romance has ripple effects on Victoria and Al.
"Come Back to the Truck Stop" summary: Elizabeth's new romance has ripple effects on Victoria and Al.
"Born Too Late": Elizabeth's new romance has ripple effects on Victoria and Al.
"3, 2, 1" summary: Elizabeth's new romance has ripple effects on Victoria and Al.


It would seem as though Season Ten became quite repetitive.

RODL. I didn’t notice that they didn’t even bother to add the show descriptions, possibly a plot description from The Royal Family?
