The Official "Facts of Life" Blooper thread! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Jo_Luvs_Ketchup · 10-27-2006, 11:49 PM

These are from a site. I will also add my own as I find them. Anyone else notice them as you're watching your DVDs?

http://factsoflifeshow.tripod.com/bloopers.html

In the episode Graduation part two, you can see Jo making a monkey face when Monica and Gero walk in the room. You even see Blair smirking.

In the episode 3,2,1 when Jo is under the desk, you can see her writing something on a piece of paper for Blair. If you look closely, you can see she thought the pencil was a pen and tried to click it.

That's all I can think of right now. Can anyone else think of any?

I'M GLAD YOU STARTED THIS THREAD KELL, CUZ I WAS THINKING ABOUT IT, BUT NEVER DID. I'D HAVE TO CHECK OVER MY TRIVIA PAGES WHEN I CAN, BECUZ I KNOW I HAVE SOME IN THERE, OR "EXTRAS" THAT DON'T SEEM SCRIPTED.

YOU CAN TELL THESE GIRLS WERE VERY TIGHT. I'D BE REAL CURIOUS TO KNOW WHAT "EXTRA" THINGS HAPPENED NATURALLY, JUST BASED ON THEIR FRIENDSHIP; AND IT WAS EITHER DECIDED TO LEAVE IT IN THE SCENE, OR IT WASN'T CAUGHT.

IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THERE WERE PLENTY OF TIMES WHERE THE GIRLS WERE EITHER LAUGHING, BEING AFFECTIONATE OR DOING SOMETHING PERSONAL THAT JUST SEEMED OUT OF PLACE IN THE SCENE, OR PERHAPS WAS EXAGGERATED.

FOR EXAMPLE, IN ONE OF THIS WEEK'S EP'S ON ME-TV, NAT & TOOTIE WERE SITTING ON THE COUCH, AND REALLY AFFECTIONATLY HOLDING HANDS. NOW MAYBE THE SCRIPT HAD SOMETHING IN THERE, BUT IT JUST SEEMED MORE PERSONAL. THEY WEREN'T JUST HOLDING HANDS, BUT MOVING THEIR FINGERS AND THUMBS, LIKE YOU MIGHT WITH A VERY GOOD FRIEND. I'M NOT IMPLICATING ANYTHING OTHER THAN A VERY CLOSE FRIENDSHIP HERE. IT WAS VERY CUTE TO WATCH. I DON'T KNOW. MAYBE IT WAS JUST ME

ANYWAYS, KELL, GREAT THREAD, AND I'LL POST SOME WHEN I CAN.

I noticed that in "Legacy" Blair's hairstyle keeps changing from loose, long curls to tighter, short puffy curls.

Nighthawk76 · 11-06-2006, 02:37 PM

I think that the biggest FOL blooper was how Jo's name changed from JoAnn to Joanna.

Wow I never thought about that!

Good one Mike!

I remember watching FOL goes to Australia, the scene when Blair and Jo are running into the auditoriam and Blair slips and you see Jo and Blair laughing histerically.

Also another episode when Blair brings home a client charged with murder for dinner, Beverly Ann brings out a Turkey (it must have been a fake) and Blair looks at it and makes a funny face.

JNSBSB · 11-07-2006, 11:43 PM

Ahh! The bloopers thread!

Now come to think of it, I remember someone posting a while back about Lisa Whelchel's/Blair's mole that suddenly appeared and then dissapeared. In that same eppisode, I also saw mysterious pimples suddenly appearing on Mr. Bradley's face only to completely dissapear. Both these mysteries happened several times in a few of the scenes on that same season 1 eppisode. Can't remember the eppisode's name at the moment, but someone should know what eppisode I'm talking about.

Gilda · 11-08-2006, 09:01 AM

Was it Emily Dickinson? I remember noticing the disappearing mole too.

I beleive so. So funny how Blair had just one mole and Mr. Bradley had several pimples, both appearing and dissapearing.

JO jr · 11-19-2006, 04:05 AM

I HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN KELL

AND STILL INTEND TO CHECK OVER MY DAILY TRIVIA (THAT'S M.I.A FOR NOW), FOR THE ONES I MENTIONED. I'LL LIST THEM HERE, WHEN I DO.

OFF HAND, AS I MENTIONED BEFORE, THE LAST SCENE OF THE 2ND SEASON EP, "THE NEW GIRL" IS A DIFFERENT TAKE THAN IS USED FOR THE OPENING CREDITS.

I NEVER NOTICED IT ALL THOSE YEARS, UNTIL I WATCHED THE EP ON MY DVD. I HAVE DESCRIBED THE DIFFERENCES IN DETAIL ON ANOTHER THREAD, BUT TWO OF THE MAIN ONES ARE: NANCY STICKS HER TONGUE OUT AT LISA, AND CLOTHES ARE THROWN AT HER DIFFERENTLY.

SINCE SOME HAVE HAD DIFFICULTY SEEING THAT THESE ARE IN FACT, TWO DIFFERENT TAKES, I SUGGEST TO CATCH THIS, WATCH IN SLOW MO VERY CAREFULLY, (ESPECIALLY TO CATCH NANCY STICKING HER TONGUE OUT) AND WATCH THE SCENE & OPENING CREDIT BACK-TO-BACK.

DID YA CATCH IT?

JO jr · 11-25-2006, 02:16 AM

OK...POKEY AGAIN. I HAVEN'T GOTTEN TO GO BACK TO MY TRIVIA TO LIST THEM HERE, BUT I DO HAVE ANOTHER ONE OFF HAND.

THE EDNA EDIBLES SIGN IS VISIBLE FROM INSIDE THE STORE. LOOKING OUT, SHOULDN'T IT BE BACKWARDS TO US? (THAT'S RHETORICAL) I GUESS THEY JUST WANTED THE VIEWERS TO BE REMINDED EVERYTIME THE CREDITS CAME ON, OR A SCENE INSIDE THE STORE WAS DONE.

NOT THAT I MIND THIS BLOOPER. I GET A CHUCKLE, REALLY.

SHOUT OUT TO MY HOMIES

HOPE ALL IS GOING WELL KELL

& HOW'S YOUR DOGGIE DOING? MIKE

HOPE YOU'RE HAVING BETTER WEEKS THAN RECENTLY, TOO. HOW 'BOUT THEM BEARS? I'M SO DISAPPOINTED I'LL HAVE TO HEAR THE GAME ON THE ROAD, BUT I'LL BE HONKIN' MY HORN FOR EVERY AWESOME PLAY. GUESS THAT MAKES ME A REAL HONKY

*DISCLAIMER-I REALLY AM A HONKY SO NO ONE NEED BE OFFENDED

Nighthawk76 · 11-25-2006, 04:30 PM

Hi Jodi

KristinHerreraFan · 12-11-2006, 10:59 PM

I think one major FOL blooper was the sudden disappearance of Mr. Bradley with no mention of what happened to him nor anyone ever saying his name again. God I hate Chuck Cunnington Syndrome

JO jr · 12-13-2006, 12:50 AM

OK, I HAVE 2 THAT I JUST NOTICED IN RE-RUNS ON ME-TV.

ONE IS FROM "THE CHRISTMAS SHOW". THE OLD MAN THAT JO GIVES THE RAFFFLE TICKET TO, IS THE CEMETARY CARETAKER, MR. BIGLEY IN "SEVEN LITTLE INDIANS". AT FIRST I THOUGHT THEY JUST USED THE SAME ACTOR FOR ANOTHER CHARACTER ON A DIFFERENT EP. REMEMBER LEO WHO LATER TURNED OUT TO BE A DRUG ADDICT

BUT, THE GIRLS REFERRED ASKED THIS MAN IF HE WAS STILL WORKING AT THE CEMETARY. MIKE HELP ME OUT-DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT THEY CALLED THIS GUY IN THE CHRISTMAS SHOW? ANYWAY, THEY CHANGED THE OLD MAN'S NAME.

YOU CAN'T CHANGE AN OLD MAN'S NAME. IN FACT, YOU SHOULD KEEP CHANGING A MAIN CHARACTER'S NAME, EITHER. WHICH BRINGS ME TO..

TODAY, I WATCHED "BALLROOM DANCE" AGAIN (LOVED IT!) WHEN THEY ANNOUNCE THE COUPLES' NAMES, IT IS JOANNE POLNIAZCEK. HUH?

OK, I'M ASSUMING EITHER JO OR NAT COMPLETED THE BALLROOM CLASS INFO, AND THUS THAT INFO WOULD BE ON THE PROGRAM, SO...IS HER NAME JOANNA OR WHAT? I'D LIKE TO THINK SO. REMEMBER WE TALKED ABOUT THIS ISSUE BEFORE, BECAUSE UPON REGISTRATION IN "NEW GIRL", THE NAME ON THE BOARD WAS JOANNE?

JOANNE SEEMS MORE PLAIN THAN JOANNA. ALL THE SAME, SHE WILL ALWAYS BE JO TO ME. I'D JUST LIKE THE WRITERS TO STICK WITH ONE NAME AND ONE NAME ONLY, THANKU!
