Thumbs down Starstruck

'Starstruck' and 'Brian and Sylvia' along with FOL goes to Australia,,,thanks tvland for sparing us,,, are my least favorite episodes.

I didn't like when Tootie pitches such a fit over not being allowed to go to the Jermaine Jackson concert....I hated it more when Mrs Garrett gave in to the histrionics and took tootie to the show.

Sorry to be such a hater. Peace.

Tootie: Muffy? Her name is Muffy? What kind of person is named Muffy?

Jo: Beats me, Tootie.

Yeah, same here, Michele. I wish they would have left a few episodes out and showed better ones.
As for "Starstruck" the only reason I'm even watching it is because I liked the first ten minutes or so when Jo told Tootie off
I'm patiently waiting for the better episodes to come on...

It was a sad excuse for a spin-off attempt...

I hate "Brian and Sylvia". Luckily for me, my VCR cut off in the middle of it. Starstruck was OK when I saw it the first time, but now I hate it. But I like the FOL movies. Hehe.

I liked Starstruck alot.

Mrs. G: Excuse me, I'm looking for a black girl.

That was really funny. As for Brian and Sylvia, Natalie was really funny...but other then that the scripts were unfunny and the characters were uneven.
