I always felt this was the best episode of season 2, and I used to say to myself why wasn;t Jo there and realized she hadn;t been added to the show at the time this episode aired which was spring of 1980. So it was just Blair, natalie, and Tootie.
BTW: haven't seen this episode since I was in the 9th grade |

Blair was not in the Slumber Party episode. Instead, there were Molly and Cindy with Natalie and Tootie. Indeed, the episode was produced and aired during the end of Facts of Life Season 1 (1980).
Blair has her first appearance in the FOL pilot (1x22 - School Girls) and next in the Season 3 as a fast special guest star, episode 3x16: "The Older Man", with Natalie. Kim Fields (Tootie) has several guest appearances in seasons 1-3, then in the Season 4 where she replaces Gary Coleman in two episodes. -- Anny |

Saw it last go round and also on Youtube. Been busy with work, so TV right now has not been a priority.

The only FOL girl never starring in a DS episode was Jo, but Jo talks with Willis in a FOL episode. Anny |

I'm sure in the times we didn't see the characters onscreen, they discussed their lives. I'm sure Mrs G told the girls about being a housekeeper for the Drummonds, etc and Kimberly discussed her school life wth the guys et.al.
