First of all, I am NOT talking about which episode you felt was the saddest. I am talking about which episode evoked real-life tears, getting all choked up, etc.
Which one made you you feel EMOTIONALLY sad? I have a couple, but I'd like to see what yours' are first. |

Hmmmmm...There are a few of them...But I was watcing 'Sweet Sorrow' yesterday for the first time in about 2 months, and by the end of the show, I was sobbing and clinging to my blanket which was drenched in tears.
I forgot how sad that episode made me feel because I was in a relationship like Jo had with Eddie at the time and it reminded me how much it does hurt to give up someone you love so much. There are a few, but I have to rack my brain to remember them due to my horrible memory...Lol. |

I'm going to go with my favorite episode "Teacher's Pet". I think anyone who has lost someone who is close to them can relate to what Jo goes through in this episode. I know I sure do. I have never been more moved by an a episode of a sitcom then I am everytime I watch "Teacher's Pet". This episode is proof as to how well "Facts" brilliantly balanced comedy and drama.

Two episodes that equally got to me was "Less Than Perfect" and "Breaking Point". I keep hearing how sad "Teacher's Pet" was but I've never seen it. I'm dying to though!!!

I've seen 'Teacher's Pet' a few times, but I can never remember what it's about...And I always hear people saying how sad it is and see the qoutes people post from that episode and it makes me want to see it even more than I already do...I have horrible memory and that's the reason why I can't seem to remember any of the episodes past the fifth season...And it sucks! Lol. But I'm sure it's an amazing episode because everyone talks about it...So we'll just have to wait until either N@N starts showing it on their network, or until it comes out on dvd...

Omg...that is so weird, as soon as you said 'dying of cancer' parts of that episode flashed in front of my eyes...Lol...I remember that part of the show when Mrs. G tells Jo that the teacher was dying...And I remember Jo was crying ALOT and she was saying all this stuff like what's the use of living and saying stuff about life and death...It WAS sad! Now I want to see that show even more! And the link on your video thread isn't working...I was really looking forward to seeing that episode...Lol...Well, I guess I'm just gonna have to be patient... Thanks for the help anyway!

OH, I DIDN'T SAY THAT I NEVER CRIED OR I WASN'T LEFT EMOTIONALLY DRAINED. I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE WOULD CATCH WHAT I SAID. I GUESS YOU MAY NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHY I WOULD SAY THAT. I ACTUALLY HAVE ANSWERS, BUT "IT'S DEEP THOUGHTS" WITH JO jr. I'M SO I KNOW

No episode has ever made me cry but the season five episode "a death in the family" came the closest. I could relate to the whole episode and how Natalie must of felt. It was very eerie how similar the episode was to how I was feeling when I lost somebody very close to me. It is one episode that I had a hard time watching and may not ever watch again.

There is a couple eps that I cried at
The one where Jo and Eddie break up- Nancy is such a good actress when she cries she makes it look so believeable you can't help it but cry with her A death in the family- Once Natalie starts to cry I always feel sorry for her and cry with her The ep where Mrs. G leaves Its just so sad knowing it's her last ep. I always cry when she talks to each of the girls and how much they meant to her The ep where Jo leaves for California even thought she doesn't really leave the show I still cry when she hugs everyone just before she leaves Less than Perfect- there's two parts that make me cry. Well the first part make me cry just a little bit the part when there at the hospital and Casey comes running in asking how she is and gets so mad that he didn't get his car checked weeks ago and the other part is when Blair see's that big scratch on her forehead and starts to cry that really gets me. |
