Default re: boring episodes

"Truck Stop" was boring??? I thought that was classic!!

Boring episodes were ones where they tried to make spinoffs, like Brian and Sylvia, the Boxing episode, Natalie in New York. The Bates episode was okay, kinda sorta. And Jo's cousin. And there are probably more, but I can't think of them all.

I forgot about FOL goes to Paris *yawn!*
and I get pretty ancy during Big Apple Blues too.

And the reason why I don't like Come Back to the Truckstop is because I'm not into those fantasy eps. To me they're boring.

Default re: dislike Truck Stop fantasy?

Okay, I guess I can see that. It's kind of jumbled up when it gets too spontaneous. I did think some parts of that were funny! I guess I like it because I sympathize with Natalie trying to write something out of nothing, I should know, I'm a writer.

That truck stop one was a bit dull, I don't like fantasy episodes of shows much either.
I liked the "Dream Marriage" fantasy episode though.

Exclamation Boring Episode

I think that the 2 part episode where Jo dates his teacher and the 2nd part was even more boring with that really annoying kid from Kindergarten Cop. GOD I CAN'T STAND HIM! I don't think I have seen any other boring episodes. I think they really should of had another season. Just leaving that whatever her name is (the girl that has trouble at Eastland in the last time) I think her name it was Terry.

Cordially,
Nathan Bush

No, Golden Oldies is the one where they imagine life in the future when they're all really old. Its pretty funny. 62 Pick Up is the one where they go back to the 60s. Its an awesome episode.. its a lot better than Golden Oldies.

The little boy from 'Taking a Chance on Love' was in Kindergarten Cop?? That doesn't make sense, time-wise. If he was a little boy in the FOL ep in 1984, he couldn't have played a 5-year-old in Kindergarten Cop in the early 90's. Maybe I am not understanding what you mean??
