And Blair was the one who went after Cindy for liking and being huggy and tourchy with girls? I think someone was deflecting.

I'm assuming more of Barry "taking Lisa's show" ended up on the cutting room floor, since she actually said that remark to the camera.

I felt bad for the poor appraiser. Barry stole his thunder and didn't get him a chance to make his offer!

So, someone will have a house of FOL memorabilia? Or is it just that a co-star or so will make an appearance?

Lisa will be taking a look at Charlotte Rae's personal collection---along with a surprise guest star somehow related to "The Facts of Life"!

I wonder if Charlotte asked permission to take these items or did she pilfer a whole bunch of items every time they were going to completely change the main set? Did she have any items any of the lost girls left behind? (we do know there is one YouTube video where some girl got Molly's track uniform).

Does she have any Eastlake banners before the name change to Eastland.

Did she take the globe that Felice used to threaten Tootie and was kept by the stairs in the 1st season?

Hmm, interesting question how she acquired them. Who knows? But certainly if you're going to let anyone get away with taking any items from the show, it would be Charlotte.

We do? There is? I've only seen a photo of the uniform.

Thanks, '80s. I believe that was mentioned earlier, but just wanted to check that it hadn't changed. Will be interesting to see how/if they incorporate any of the show's "trade" element into it, as it is, after all, "Collector's Call."

Back in 2012, a couple of Facts of Life fans went to visit the Pomona College dorm that was featured on the opener of the Facts of Life. The woman wore Molly Ringwald's track jacket. http://www.iamnotastalker.com/2012/0...facts-of-life/

The special guest is Larry Strauss, Charlotte's son.

There's been talk of Kim Fields and Eve Plumb, but I think it should remain a surprise regardless.
