Hey everyone! I just watch the IP, I was baby-sitting when it came on and had to tape it. I thought it was really good! The pictures of her when she was younger were adorable! They also mentioned my other favorite show that i never get to see cuz of my schedual, "The Nanny". I was addicted to that show for like 3 years until they started showing it while I was at school.

Anyways, back to Lifetime. Someone mentioned that after N@N maybe they could pick it up. That would be awesome. I know they have the rights to "The Nanny" starting in 2002. Though having the show on lifetime would be cool, it is probably more likely that the show will be Passed on to TVLand. This seems to be where all of the older N@N shows have gone to.

Well, now I am going to bed! Well, at least to watch TV! Bye!

I thought the Nancy 'IP' was good but you would of thought they would have more on TFOL considering she spent 8 years on the show. And they should of mentioned if she keeps in touch with them or not.

Well, I missed the last 10 minutes or so, but I saw the part that I was interested in. My thoughts have already been covered by previous posters, but I'll recap anyways.

1. I take back the statement I made earlier about wondering if Phil was gay. He aged quite niceley (Sorry Michele/Jay... Alice era Phil was just too much of an awkward teen)
2. I was wondering if she got her nose done too... If she did, I don't really care for the shape
3. Since we were talking about it the other day, I was listening for the New York accent, and it came out sometimes during the interview, probably when she was a little more relaxed and wasn't aware that she was doing it.
4. The lack of FOL coverage disappointed me. It was such a large part of her life, not to mention a defining era of her career, and I feel bad that they didn't cover more of it.

Didn't mean to cause an uproar over the nose job comment. Plastic surgery is so common in L.A. and it is pretty rare to find anyone connected to Hollywood who hasn't had some sort of plastic surgery. It was just something I noticed when they showed older pictures of her and then flashed back to her interview on 'IP'.Anyway, I think she looks great and also seems to have a very nice personality.

She also seems to be very private not only about her social life but also about her other views since she wouldn't comment on the Bonanno Family...guess I can't blame her there. Regarding "TFOL" stuff the only episode she really commented on was the suicide episode. Seems she is proud of that one even though N@N has refused to show it so far.

michele- when did nancy ever talk about the suicide ep.? I wathced the IP 2 1/2 times and i never heard her talk about any FOL eps. in particular.

Also- to whoever said nancy looked cute when she was younger, i think so too. im not being gay, but she was really cute when she was young (but she has always been pretty good looking) like i said, im not gay (cuz im a gurl) but who can argue?

GottaluvJo, I may have been wrong. Maybe it was her friend/hair stylist Phil Ackerman that was commenting on the Jo stuff. Maybe I'll watch the tape again if I get time later.

I too think that they should havve said a little more about fol, or at least said whether or not she kept in touch with other cast members (they did on almost every other work she did) I also think she may have had a nose job - she looks so very different now! If she did, I think she looked better w/o it, not that she looks ugly or anything - I just don't think she should have had one. (maybe it wasn't anose job though - maybe it's aging?) Oh! Something I realized when they showed a clip from the divison (when she woke up and was struggling to get ready) - I have the same boots!! I just thought that was cool! Overall, i think the IP was good, but it should have included a little more of the fol b/c it was such a substancial part of her career and like (I mean, 8 years, hello!) ok. i've said my peace. bye.
