Do you think that any of the FOL girls think that fans like us need to get a life, that we're a little pathetic? No offense to anyone because I'm also guilty of being almost obsessed. just wondering.

I don't think so. Infact, I thought they would feel proud because obsessed FOL fans like us still exist!

Yeah I think Charlotte, Lisa, Nancy, Mindy, and Kim think us fans are psycotic and pathethic for being fans of their show. We all need to get a life (Just Kidding).

I think it shows them how magical the show really was and how well the show still stands even to this day. If anything it makes them happy and proud to be part of such a successful show. In the season 1 and 2 dvd extras Kim Fields even mentions how she felt proud to be part of the show and knew it was something special when she saw a fan wearing a vintage FOL tee.

I just remember hearing that William Shatner told a bunch of trekkies at a convention to get a life, and was just wondering if our girls felt the same. but i guess not. that's cool.

I thought that was so cool when she said that.


On another note, I really want one of those shirts. Does anybody know where to get them?

William Shatner is just an old Punk who thinks of nothin more than being in Outer Space conquering new worlds!
Plus, the Facts girls would never think or feel like that! The Facts Girls still cherish their fans!

Sorry to be off-topic here, but he did not really tell trekkies to "Get a life". That was a "Saturday Night Live" skit he did in 1986.

It's great they still cherish their fans...I'm one of those dedicated fans. BTW, canuckkidd, your user picture is awesome! "Keish me once, Keish me twice, Keish me once again, woo!" hahaha. and that proves my dedication and love for FOL (remember the random quotes!).

He did. However, it was meant as a joke. He didn't mean for anyone to take it seriously.

I doubt it. I think everyone, even they, have their own obsessions similar to our and FOL. So they know exactly what it's like.

YEP! I GOT MINE ON E-BAY, AND I WEAR IT ON EVERY SPECIAL FACTS OCCASION (DVD RELEASE, ANNIVERSARY DATES).

YOU CAN STILL GET THEM. I'VE SEEN THEM, AND NEED TO GET A NEW ONE OR TWO OR THREE...

What does the shirt you got on eBay look like? I always check their website for the shirts and all I can ever find are really tacky looking ones that have iron-on photos that look like they will come right off in the washing machine. I'm looking for those ringer type shirts with the show's logo on it. I saw one somewhere a very long time ago that was orange with red around the collar and the sleves and had the logo in red. I haven't seen any like that since though.

However, I did just check eBay right before I replied to your post and I found someone selling shirts that say Eastland on them. I definitely just bought one of those because I am totally in love with FOL, but I still am going to need one of the other ones too

I've got that Eastland shirt, too. It's grey with "Eastland" written in blue caps, right? I get so many smiles walking around town in that shirt (unless they are smiling at me because I've got food in my hair or something?!).



I have a a FOL promo jacket, satin blue with the logo on the back. Definitely my prize FOL possession along with the DVDs! But I'd love to find a good FOL shirt, too.

Come to think of it, I have seen another FOL shirt at an Ebay store that someone made up...I think it was Mrs. G saying something like "Somebody's in Trou-BLE!" or something like that.
