I believe season one was actually two seasons! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

DIFFEREnt CAST(no mrs mahoney), DIFFERENT OPENING?CLOSING SCENES/the first four episodes aired at the end of the 78/79 season whilst the remaining 9 episodes aired in the spring/80 of the 79/80 season and there is a huge difference in the length of natalie's hair between episodes 1-4 and 5-13
i thought molly's women's lib character was ok/but mostly irritating...I think they didn't utilize Nancy's character that much during season one...and the girls (NANCY SUE ANN AND CINDY) were meaner/funnier in the later episodes(SEASON TWO< THREE AND EIGHT)

season one was cool too...tootie on skates...tootie alot more sassier!...tootie had more attitude(i thought they changed tootie"s character to the point where blair/jo had all the lines)!...BLAIR was meaner(the pilot she was smoking cigarettes and in episode one she was downright cruel IMPLYING THAT cindy WAS a lesbian(there is a scene in season one where blair looks at herself in the mirror and the audience sounded like they were "booing" her)(laugh track)..nATALIE AND TOOTIE WERE THE FUNNIEST AND THEY ALWAYS HUNG AROUND EACH OTHER...CINDY HAD NO CHARACTER AT ALL(it was the scripts and too many actresses)
HEY WHAT OTHER EPISODES WERE nancy OR SUE ANN OR CINDY IN BESIDES THE LITTLE CHILL,FRONT PAGE, DEAR ME, THE EPISODE WITH THE SOUTH PACIFIC(NANCY HAS A TINY PART, GOSSIP AND SEX SYMBOL...ARE THEY IN ANY OTHER EPISODES(EVEN AS EXTRAS?
DID KIMBERLY FROM DIFFRENT STROKES EVER APPEAR IN THE FACTS OF LIFE? DID ANYONE EVER SEE KIMBERLY WALKING AROUND THE SCHOOL?
WERE THERE ANY HALLWAYS AT EASTLAND(IM KIDDING)
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE HELEN HUNT DOPE EPISODE I NEVER SAW IT UNTIL THE SUMMER OF 1984 WHEN FACTS WAS SHOWN MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY ON nbc9IN THE MORNING)...DOPE WAS ORIGINALLY NOT SHOWN AND THEN SHOWN DURING THE SUMMER...(WAS THE SHOW TOO CONTROVERSIAL?)
i REMEMBER DURING THE SECOND SEASON, WHICH ONLY HAS 16 EPISODES, THEY REPEATED EPISODES 5-13 DURING THE SUMMER OF 1981 'COS THEY RAN OUT OF EPISODES DURING SEASON TWO...GOSH... I WISH THEY MADE MORE EPISODES DURING THE SECOND SEASON(TOOTIE LOOKS CUTE/FUNNY WITH THE FAMOUS PIG TAILS!)
WOW DURING THE PILOT EPISODE TOOTIE HAD A BIG BALL OF HAIR ON TOP OF HER HEAD AND NANCY WAS THE POOR/STRUGGLING STUDENT WHO HAD TROUBLE PAYING TUITION(like JO'S CHARACTER)
WHEW.

Technically, they are 1 season.. but there was a pretty long time between when they shot the first 4 episodes and episodes 5-13, so that would account for the growth of some of the cast members and Mindy Cohn's hair length. The first 4 were shot in the spring of 1979 and the next 9 were shot most likely in the fall of 1979.
