To LW4Ever,
Going nuts at the sight of Lisa--THAT'S IN FACT WHAT I DID!! Amazing, I remember the day, July 21, 1987, they announced all the people on the show, and when Lisa came out, I just went BALLISTIC!!!! It seemed they did that dress rehearsal for hours... (Before the Fall episode where Nat goes undercover in ROTC) And it was the KEWLEST thing to have Lisa just sitting just a few feet ahead of me!!!! (More later) |

I didn't see an episode, but I did see Kim Fields in person two years ago. I was staying at the Beverly Hills Hilton and it was the night of the Grammys, and Santana was throwing this big after party at the hotel. Anyways, I was in the lobby with a couple of my friends trying to catch a glimps of some of the celeberties that were walking by into the party. and all of a sudden I hear some guy being like "Hey isnt that Kim Fields?" And I turned around and she was right there in front of me. It was pretty awesome. Thats my story!

At the "Before the fall" episode, I remember Lisa and John Astin (Mackenzie Astin's dad--duh!! "Gomez Addams) were just sitting a few feet away from me.
I remember at the "Natalie's and Tootie's BFs fighting" episode, the guy who played Snake (also was on Fast Times at Ridgemont High) was saying his lines on the couch, then messed up and said a CUSS WORD out of frustration!! The director announced that "none of us actually heard that naughty word"!! Also, what was classic was when Blair pretended to play the "slimeball mechanic" in the kitchen with Jo and Beverly Ann, and to convey the slimeball effect, they had her take a swallow of Coke--and she BURPED!! This belch was supposed to go into the episode, but I guess they cut it out. Nancy did make the comment on the set that Lisa should've "ate some beans" instead of Coke!! That was one of the funniest tapings!! At the tape with Rick announcing he was going to die at 30, the girls sat around discussing what they would do if they had only one day to live. Jo told Blair, "I know what you would do--you'd liquefy your assets into cash and roll around naked in it." And Blair replied, "No, I wouldn't! I do that now." I don't remember which episode it was, but Andy and Pippa were putting frosting on a cake. When the scene ended, the stage crew just threw the cake in the garbage. I thought, what a waste, I would've put that cake to good use!! I think at one taping, during a scene break, some guy announced to Lisa that "he wanted to take her home..." She just smiled, but I felt like, hey you don't say that to Lisa! (Taking it a little too seriously...) But most of all, I remember that I spent HOURS just laughing and having the most fun well into the night, basking in the glow of Lisa...

Tad Warner, you are way too lucky!!! I remember the show when it was on NBC, but I was just a poor, young kid (OK, I'm exaggerating a bit
) living in Florida at the time, and didn't have the opportunity to come to California to see it taped. Now that I'm older AND living in California, I can do whatever I want- but dang it, it's way too late.

Thanks for sharing the "behind the scenes" stuff. You are so lucky!! I would have loved to see a taping but I was just a kid at the time. I watched it all the time during its original run though.

To LW4Ever,
You're right, that's NOT something you say to Lisa, I felt like I wanted to clobber this slimeball buffoon. But I think she smiled to be civil, I wondered if she had gotten comments like that before. I'm sure she'd been instructed to play along with it, take it in stride and just ignore it. I remember Lisa saying on one show that when they had some parade, she was on a float and some guy said, "Hey Blair, you're getting fat!" ANOTHER thing you DON'T say to a girl, especially Lisa!! Funny, I never really considered she was overweight until SHE said she was!! I thought, really?? I suppose the guy who said that shouldn't have expected to win HER over!! I really did think the guy who made the comment at the taping had NO REGARD for her Christianprinciples!! |

To NMK/LW,
I've just turned 39, and I was almost 25 when I saw the show being taped. I don't FEEL that old! Okay, what more can I say. Okay, I have a little trip through the time machine that I have not told anybody for YEARS!!!! And of course you're ALL going to FREAK over it!!!! Should I tell you?? Mmm...naah. What do you think? YOU GUYS READY FOR IT?? You want to hear it?? I don't know. It'll just have to be my little secret. |
