Well I finally finished watching the episodes tonight. Even though I enjoyed both episodes I still think I enjoyed the first one more. I always have liked the sentimental scenes between Blair and Jo that show even though they may insult each other, deep down they are good friends. Also as other people have said, the accident episode got to show Lisa Whelchel's acting ability. I also laughed at the surprised response that Tootie and Nat gave Jo when she said she wanted advice from them.

I also enjoyed the second episode as well. I laughed when Rick was outside of Jo's window looking through the "photo album." Also I loved the ceremony they wrote. I thought it was pure Jo! As someone else said, it would have been nice to see at least a one-sided conversation between Jo and Mrs. G. but I guess we can't have everything. I also thought the whole thing was kind of rushed as well between when she said yes, the parties and the wedding. As mentioned by other people, Mrs. G had a two part wedding so I think Jo should have had one as well. She was the most popular character and I agree that this would have been a MUCH better series finale then the one they had. I also would have liked to see Nat and Tootie a little more as well.

Overall though I really enjoyed both episodes!

Sorry to be a party pooper, but I think they were so-so. I mean, the accident episode was really good, you know when Blair first see's her scar.Good acting. And when Jo asked Nat and Tootie for advice, that was pretty funny.
But the wedding episode was a little rushed, as you guys said before. Rick is a good guy and all(not as bad as I thought he was going to be), but I guess i'm a big Eddie fan.

I thought they were great! ~of course, i started crying right in the beginning of the first ep... i cry a lot at TV shows~
Blair's accident ~ I agree, Factsoflife2, that yeah the writers forget stuff (take the little chill, for ex., or in some brady bunch episode when marcia gets braces in one ep and then they're gone in the next), but it was a great ep and it had alot of good blair/jo *moments*
Jo's wedding ~ greeeat!! my only wish is that they had a little more nat and tootie in it and beverly ann was just a little tooo much in it, hehe... but other than that it was great ~ i was reeally crying here, but hey, I love FOL!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS, GUYS!!

Pippa: Won't you tell me now?
Blair: Tomorrow.
Jo: Rick...
Pippa: Rick?
Jo/Nat/Blair: Tomorrow, Pippa!

Natalie: A flashback within a flashback... I'm so brilliant it scares me!
Natalie: You thought she was the delivery boy? I was gonna ask her to the fall dance before I knew! [from my favorite ep, New girl part 1]
Jo: you're born, you grow, you die, hey that's life.

It was very emotional to me. I felt sorry for her becase her beauty was gone. I taped it. My friend didnt get the part when Blair said" My mother bought me a little white dress with little gloves and little shoes, my mother said dont ever play in the dirt or spill anything on the dress because if you can n ever ever fix it up" That was ery emotinoal. my friend really didnt get itr.

well, Blair apparently went ahead and got the plastic surgery she mentioned on that episode. Because she looked like Blair, no scars or anything, on the final episode. Is it me, or was it nice to see Blair's roots show in this episode instead of the blonde dye we've always seen.
