Shoplifting is my 2nd or 3rd favorite episode. It was just really creative and funny. Other then that, Mrs. Garrett really blended in with the girls in this perticular episode. The plot was fantasic, and I thought that Jo was very very classy in this one.

I loved it too. This was the first time I'd seen it, so it was a real treat.

I love it too!! I do have one picky comment-if the girls wanted to buy Mrs. G a birthday gift (or Christmas gift for that matter) why wouldn't their parents help them out a little bit? I mean maybe Nat's folks could bring up some cash since they live close by and then the girls could reimburse them when they got more cash. Of course if this had happened then there would have been no shoplifting episode.

I am bringing this thread to the top of the page because this particular episode features an actress that I am very fond of! The actress that I am referring to is Hazel Shermet. Now there is a babe if I ever saw one! She is so petite and dainty! In the recent past, someone raised to the top of the page another thread regarding this particular episode. You will see that the last response to that thread is mine. It was a real thrill to see someone other than me actually mention Hazel Shermet's name! A third poster pointed out that it was the same actress who played the saleslady in this episode that also played the music/drama teacher in "Green Eyed Monster". I thought that she did a superb job in both roles!

I am responding to this thread mainly because this is one of the very few pages that I have any interest in that I am not already the most recent person to post. On another thread, I, just for fun, offered a theory as to why this is. According to this theory, a lot of the posters might be Roman Catholic and are thus giving up coming to sites like this for the sake of Lent! On a more serious note, someone on the same thread that I posted that referred to Hazel Shermet's character as the bitchy sales lady. Well, although it was clear that the sales lady did have an attitude, I thought that her mannerisms were very hotsy totsy! I thought that her glasses were a very nice touch! One thing that I would be very interested in would be other peoples' points of view about her part in this episode, the other episode that she appeared in as well as other shows in which she was involved.

I liked this episode as well. That sales associate was horrible, though. Wow..... I wanted to smack her upside the head!

One of the most quintessential episodes of the entire series, to be sure. I think many fans who are fans of the cafeteria years rank this as a top episode.

I wonder is the “Shoplifting” story was an idea from Season 1 and they revised it for Season 2 with jo. It just feels like something that would have been done in Season 1 and it even has the simple “-ing” one word title, i.e. Dieting, Running, etc.
