In season 1, our 7 girls had each their unique personality (and not that nonsense they did from season 7 onward to turn our main stars into real PODS).

That's all i have to say.....

Come to think of it, did the four other girls really serve no purpose other than to service the other three? What I mean is that, did it feel like for 98% of the time, the other four girls are literally just on screen to set up one-liners and jokes for Blair, Tootie, Natalie, and the adults?

Natalie was not a featured charater in Season 1. She set up one lines and jokes for Blair, Tootie, Sue Ann, and the adults.

Miss Mahoney and Mr. Bradford were awful!

What’s this about a Rae/O’Hara and Ringwald/Cohn feud?

You will have to watch the Reelz Behind the Sitcoms documentary to hear about the Rae/O'Hara dispute. As for the Molly/Mindy field, here is what Molly said.

I liked that version of the theme tune...

I think Season 1 was classic and the show was never as good after that.

I liked the hair and the fashion, but the show still had a lot of substance, in my opinion.

I thought all the seasons were a classic. However, season 1 is my least favorite.
