Default Hated the Bulima episode I saw recently

Just an all around weak episode, with kimberly overeating and throwing up and no willis at all. Very boring. Am i the only who was not happy to see episodes that revolved around kimberly?

i actually liked it, cuz it was interesting to see mr. d unconserned at first about what she was doing and it was powerful to see kimberly over react about them going to see dr. franklin and what not, the only part that was kind of dumb was the boys saying they didnt think there was going to be dinner tonight... but otherwise i thought it was pretty realistic and a good thing for them to touch on

I agree. Sometimes I thought they would go overboard with the "very special" episodes, but thinking back, I like them more than a lot of the other episodes. I think most of them were well done. There were some cheesy one's, and a few episodes where I'd go "oh come on!", but for the most part, they were pretty good.

We have talked about this episode in the past. Some have had problems with MaryAnne's acting in this ep.. Now that I am older, I see the points of others on the boards.

Speaking of this particular episode, it is my favorite one from the ABC season, noteably because they brought back Kimberly, whom I had sorely missed.

I found a clip recently on YouTube of the season 8 opening, and noticed that while Dana Plato did not have her name in the opening credits, they included a promotional photo of her, footage of her kissing Aronld and Willis, and that she was included in the final shot of the cast waving at the camera.

My question is, was this the same opening used for the entire final season, or was this a specially editied one from the episode where Dana Plato was a guest star?
