Born too Late/3,2,1

[cfr1970]

"Born too Late"

I guess it was time for Andy to get a main story episode. I still don't get why this 13 year old kid is hanging around these late teens/early 20 something women. Doesn't he have any friends his own age to hang with?!

When I was 13, I was riding my bike everywhere, at the video arcades playing Pac Man, playing in the school yard with friends after school. Not hanging in some junk shop with a bunch of late teen aged girls. I like Andy, but his character makes no sense here. Go be a kid somewhere!

I liked the sweet ending between him and Tootie and Natalie's totally 80's hairstyle was fun.

I wish girls wore their hair like that again instead of the popular greasy straight look we see on them all today.

One thing I HATED as a bird owner was seeing that poor bird trapped in that too small cage with no food or water! I realize it was just stuck in there for filming, but it was distracting every time it was on screen. I just wanted to jump in the TV and set the poor thing free. 🐦


"3,2,1".....ZERO!! (Which is my rating for this episode!)

So this is the one where Jo & Blair are handcuffed. I was really looking forward to it, but the way it played out fell flatter than Jo's pizza. I thought they accidentally got cuffed together, but Jo doing it just to make her read a damn editorial was silly and dumb.

I just didn't get the whole thing. Why handcuff her?! How is that going to make her read it?! It made no sense.

And the whole filming part in the shop was bad...just very bad, bad, bad. Poor Mrs. G having to act this way. Just set Charlotte Rae free already than have her acting like a buffoon!

George & Andy were annoying. That head tic...someone really should've put a neck brace on Clooney to stop it. Andy I usually don't mind, but when he's with George he's an idiot.

Not much else to say except that I didn't care for this one at all. Blair & Jo being handcuffed should've been WAY better than this. Just THINKING of them stuck together brings so many comedic images in my mind....yet they do it in the most boring and unfunny way possible. Such a missed opportunity that was.

Side note....so there's a little room on the left side of the stage now where the corner Mrs. G is shoved into with her cookies? Is this a second storeroom? And when they were filming, they're looking in what was the storeroom just a couple episodes ago and suddenly it's back to being the kitchen again?!

The 🦈 🦈 🦈 are clearly circling the waters now and getting ready to be jumped!

Natalie's totally 80's hair....LOVE IT!!

No, and he will get NO friends until Season 9.

Natalie's totally 80's hairstyle was fun.

She was really rockin' the "early Madonna' look!

Let's hope as soon as taping was over, they put him in his real cage.

Yeah. I'm afraid you also may not like some other episodes this season, for similar reasons.

Yeah, it makes no sense. By this point, rooms appear and disappear without reason or explanation, just as characters will. Wait until you get to season 9 and the final remodel! If you're like me, your head will explode when you see what they did. OMG!

The 🦈 🦈 🦈 are clearly circling the waters now and getting ready to be jumped!

Indeed...

I can't wait to see what they did to the Over our Heads space. For the life of me I have absolutely zero recollection of them doing yet another renovation! I think someone here said they turned it into a bedroom?! I'm so curious to see it now.

If anyone has a picture to upload it to see what the heck it looks like, please do! There's 38 episodes to go before season 9 starts on Antenna TV, so that puts it at around May 11th and that's TOO long to wait!

What actually became the purpose of the space?!

['80sSitcoms]

cfr, I'm afraid you must move on. Once the store closes, they don't show it "turned into a bedroom"; it's only mentioned, not seen.

It was turned into a living space for Andy and Pippa ("separately yet together yet separate" we assume, lol).

I was thinking she's got that Madonna "Borderline" hair. Who the hell is Janice?! Whoever she is, I don't think she's popular enough to only have one name.

[RetroGuy2000]

But they do show the kitchen. OMG!

[Lorimar Television]

OOH also only appears one time in the final season

Andy & Pippa lived in there?! WTH?!....And we never even get to see it? I guess it's safe to assume they were love interests if they're sharing a bedroom. Or just having sex.

See? Beverly was a bad influence because Mrs. Garrett would never have allowed that under her roof!

I thought it was gonna be shown today in "3,2,1" when they went in the kitchen. I'm dying to see what it looks like after the remodel. Why OMG...just what did they do to it?!

Yes: NATALIE turns prettier and prettier in the later seasons as well as TOOTIE!

On the other hand, i found BLAIR and JO more attractive in the early seasons...


Hi cfr1970 and i'm glad you're finding season 7 as weak as i did!

By season 8 things definitely improve although MRS G is almost gone...

So long, and i really cannot wait until you begin with the next season!

What happened is after I posted I went back to make an edit, and your sharks bit the dust! That happens if you go back to edit a post containing a non-SitcomsOnline emoji!

The Muppets!! Come on cfr, work with me here!

(Janice was the guitarist of Dr. Teeth and the The Electric Mayhem from "The Muppet Show", and Nurse Janice from the "Veterinarian's Hospital" sketches from the same show, along with popping up in various other places on the show)

I watched the Muppet Show on TV and even saw the film Muppets Take Manhattan and I never heard of this Janice muppet. Even that pic doesn't ring a bell. Judging from the side ponytail, i'm guessing she came in later on like mid to late 80s or something? By then I was too old for Muppets.

My Dad would mistakenly call them the "Mumpets" and i'd always have to correct him.
