As I said before. I would never hire Blair as a lawyer. Too much of an airhead.

They weren’t terribly consistent with her character. Sometimes she acted like an airhead. But she was considered a high achiever at Eastland, and they made it seem like Langley was a difficult school to get into.

Blair was definitely sharp during the Eastland and Langley years. But even then, she didn't seem like a lawyer type. She never showed much interest in the law or courts.

I agree with you on that one Retro:BLAIR wasn't much of a lawyer and i know i'm a minority on that one, but i could totally see her as the new headmistress of 'Eastland' (she LOVED that school and had always felt like at home there)

I agree with you that Blair always felt at home, at Eastland. The facts is, her family had dedicated so many buildings to the school that it had to have felt like a home away from home, the Warner touch on nearly every building.

I didn't mean it quite that way: the reason i said BLAIR has always felt at home at 'Eastland', it's because this is where she first met MRS G (who had the biggest impact on her) and learned about true friendship (SUE ANN at first, and then JO, NAT and TOOTIE).....

PS: who cares about some WARNER buildings?

Too young to be a Headmistress then. The kids had no respect of her and they walked all over her. You never saw the kids at Eastland do that to Mrs. Garrett. They may have snucked out behind her back at times, but they didn't disrespect her when caught.

I don't remember the kids walking all over BLAIR??? (JULIETTE LEWIS was a bit rude to her at the beginning) but after BLAIR helped her stay at school she bonds with her.
