I always liked "Jo" Nancy McKeon. i still do actually and I think she has aged very well; not like she is that old but still.
So who were your "Facts of Life" girl crushes? Please do tell. |

Jo was too manly for my liking.
I think I had a crush on the rest of the three girls. Blair (seasons 1,2)= looks. Tootie (seasons 8,9)= looks. Natalie (seasons 1-9)= personality. Natalie was def. the most likable. |

while around season 3-4 she had weight struggles, and in season 6 and part of 7, she suffered from accidentally using Jo's hairstylist, I always thought Lisa Whelchel was one of the most naturally beautiful women ever to grace television screens. Hell, as a gay man, I can even admit she was beautiful for the majority of the shows run. Even tho she was religious in real life and dressed conservatively, she still managed to be sexier than 90% of the women on television who try their hardest to be sexpots. IMO, she and Lisa Bonet were the "it" girls in terms of lookswise in 80's television, they were both naturally beautiful and didn't even have to try hard, it just worked for them.

I have to say that I didnt find any of the girls on this show particularly attractive, I did however have the Hots for Dana Plato on FOL's sister show, Diffrent Strokes, at the time.

Jo didn't really look too bad with the ponytail early on, IMO she didn't really "butch" until she got the mullet in season 6. From then on it was one bad hairstyle after the next. Although I do think the really poofy hair in the last season looked better than the straightened mullet she had in season 7 and 8

Hey...longtime reader, first-time poster...
I guess I always kind of had a thing for Blair...that might be because I always wanted to be Jo... |

In the first season, Blair looked absolutely smokin'! She was kind of a "bad girl" initially, with a sort of sexy (for that time) attire and she even smoked!
Felice Schacter (Nancy) from the first season was cute, too. |

I am going to have to say that the girl that I always had the hots for was Natelie! Ever since the early part of my addolecence, I had a "huge" crush on her! There was always something about her appearance and her mannerisms that always managed to fill me up. I have such pleasent memories of the series in general and her character in particular!

obviously my handle is kind of a giveaway. But seriously, you rock Dean!! Right on! I always thought Lisa had this unbridled sensuality that she wasn't aware of, so that made it all the better! I thought all the girls were sweet, but Blair, even though she wasn't my type looks wise, was very hot! Hope I don't sound like Paris Hilton here but, Blair Warner-that's hot!
