Default Is anyone else going to be like my cousin and wait for N@N to air..

Season 2? She hates season 1 so much which means I have to watch every ep of Season 1 so I can compare when they start showing season 2 to know what she is talking about. Since I'm a fan of crossovers, I liked watching the eps when the Cosby show cast appeared on ADW

I hate season one . They just don't seem to have any point to them. They were to silly. I remember one show where Denise had to wear a pig nose because she was a slob. I didn't care for the crossovers that much especially the ones Clair made after Lisa Bonet left the show. Their wasn't no point to them. I did like Lisa Bonet's guest appearance on it a few years after she left because it sort of brought closure to her character on ADW.

Exactly, season 1 sucked, not too many people liked it. It wasn't going any where. But when Debbie Allen took over the show in season 2, thats when the show picked up steam and it was great from then on.

Season 1 is just bad, had it not peaked in the top four ratings that season it would have been canned.

it would have been canned had Lisa remained with the show...and those mindless episodes had continued. The Whitley character also changed, for the better, in my opinion. Although she was still the spoiled, rich girl, she was funny. She was so annoying in season 1...so annoying she wasn't likeable at all, IMHO.

Yeah Whitley was cold in the first season, in the seasons after she wasn't cold hearted.

Funny how Kim Wayans was on that show and in one episode Damon and Keenan (her brothers) also appeared...

Mary Alice who played Lettie, was annoying to me. I couldn't stand her character. I was glad when that character was removed, for whatever reason.

I liked Mary Alice, but I liked Sinbad as Dorm Director better.
