I,ve always hated how Mrs. G always grilled the younger girls aka Nat & Tootie for their mistakes while Blair & Jo received less "groundings" for similar ones. One episode that comes to mind is Mind Your Own Business when Blair not only reads, but divulges all to everyone. Blair receives a "little not nice" from Mrs. G but Nat recieves heck when she attempts to seek well deserved revenge. Did anyone else sense this too?

Here is what I hate most:
The First season Mr. Parker Roy (He was so annoying) ------------------ Blair: No one look now but there are some classy guys beside us Tootie & Nat: Where where Blair: I’m never going out with you guys again Tootie: I bet they like us there stopping JO: Its a red light Tootie: Um Blair I think you should see this JO: What Nat: Blair’s classy guys are mooning us |

What I hated most about the show:
1) the final episode (it sucked big time) 2) the whole first season 3) Pippa 4) Most of the fashions on the later seasons. Those jumpsuit things that Jo, Natalie, and Tootie wore were awful. 5) The white dress Jo wore in "The Oldest Living Graduate". That by far was the worst thing she wore. Also, while I thought a lot of the clothes Jo wore in the later seasons were awful, I also agree with LeslieM that what Jo wore in the last season wasn't bad . After all, after all Jo was a career girl, and in the real work world, one has to look pro- fessional. Sweats, jeans, and sneaks just won't cut it in the office. 6) The hairdos the girls wore in the Mid 80's. Those make me cringe. 7) The theme song in the last seasons. Updating it for the late 80's made sound awful, and dated. |

Michele- I do think their hair styles did 'improve' after season 7...somewhat.
But like you said, they were still stuck in those clothes. I mean, you have to admit, other shows at the same time were'nt nearly as bad...fashion-wise. ------------------ "It was just like Saturday Night Fever, only it was a Friday." |

LIST:
1)First season girls 2)The onepiece thing Jo wore in "Gone with the wind" 3)Jos hair in season 6. ALl fluffy and poofy. Actally i like the way she dressed in the last season, it looked good, but it did take away from the "Jo" image |

The Blair & Casey romance.
I get the whole "opposites attract" thing but I just didn't buy them as a couple. (Dr. Cliff or Handyman Ben... now that worked!) "You're a 'ha-ndy man'?!" And while we're on the subject, why did Jo let Rick get away with behavior she would've smacked anyone else for? Hmmm? |

Because when Rick does it, it's cute! (Sorry, I know that didn't help!)

Beverly Ann
Andy Pippa And some of the shows were really corny, especially the ones in the last couple of seasons. I really liked that show, but I pretty much stopped watching it after Beverly Ann started on the show. I missed Charlotte Rae/Mrs. Garrett. Aww! I'm sorry so many people don't like the 1st season. It was my favorite because it was more like a girls school then. I know the reason for many of you is because Nancy McKeon isn't on it, but still, it's good. I guess I'm the only one who liked it, huh? [This message has been edited by Purple Velvet Bohemian (edited 03-14-2001).] |

The final episode
Roy Miss Mahoney Molly's song in Molly's Holiday (it was pointless) The fact that everybody doesn't like 80's hairstyles (I mean, really people, I have long hair, and I desperately want it to look like Blair's in the seventh season. The 80's hairstyles rocked compared to the sucky short ones of today!) And, another thing... the fact that Geri was taken off mysteriously! P.S., I like Talk Talk Talk! (one of my faves) |

What I was not too crazy about was that runaway/smart mouthed girl that was added to the cast right after Edna's Edibles opened. I forgot what her name was on the show, but she reminded me of a pint-sized Jo. She stole from the store and eventually got a job there, and a few episodes later, she was never mentioned or seen again. Maybe Mrs. Garrett got tired of her smart mouth and chained her to the oven in the kitchen!

My list:
1.PIPPA 2.1st season w/out Jo. 3.Those very ugly full body suits Jo wore. 4.The overalls Nat wore where the bottom front was darker and different design than the top front and back.(I'm sorry but they were ugly! )5.The last ep...it kinda sucked. 6.Beverly Anne. 7.Over Our Heads I can't really think of anymore at the moment..... ------------------ "Your born,you move on,you die,that's life."-Jo Nancy McKeon is #1!! |

Andy and Beverly Ann pretty much ruined the last 2 seasons together. I could have lived without a few of the 1st season girls. Kelly Afintio from the 5th and 6th season had a really lousy script.
