WTF?! Who the hell did that? I'm sorry but that is horrible and I'm tired of this show always being freaking removed online. All of my favorites were there too. It better not have been Sony AGAIN. Someone really needs to shove a stick up their you-know-whats. I went on joost just now and typed in the facts of life and all I got was something about Lois and Clark. This is effing ridiculous. Sony, STOP TAKING AWAY OUR FOL!

I emailed the guy from Joost and he said that they just stopped doing business with Sony, because they were impossible to deal with. However, they managed to keep all the stupid "Friends" and "How I Met Your Mother" episodes up!! He said that they might bring them back, but it's highly doubtful. I hear Veoh might start having to remove episodes as well. GARRRRR!!!!! >:O These jerks at Sony are so intent on shoving "SWINEfeld" and "Friends" down our throats while depriving us of all the classic shows that we love so dearly!!

I think we should right angry emails to Sony and tell them to either put more seasons of "Facts of Life", or stop taking down the online episodes. No threats, because they could take legan action, but just be firm and get our point across.

I believe it is John.Schultz@joost.com. I could be wrong, but give it a shot.

By the way, I hate those stupid "Minisodes", because they always cut out the best parts of the episodes. I actually emailed Hulu asking them to put up more full "Facts" episodes, besides the ones they already have from season 3. So far, they said they'll look into it. But let's keep trying to get Sony to budge if we can.

Just letting you know, "Friends" is a Warner Bros product, not Sony.

Hmm, I guess that makes sense. Guess Sony irritates companies as well as customers and fans . Friends is not a Sony show, it's a Warner Bros. show and not sure about How I Met Your Mother but I don't think that's a Sony show either, otherwise it would be gone too. If Joost decided to stop doing business with Sony, then all the shows from Sony are gone from there; that's just how it works. They wouldn't get rid of one show and not others.

And who on earth do you know at Veoh that told you they were removing FOL eps from there? People put them up there to avoid the powers-that-be at YT who take eps down. Do you think you can provide a link to where you read this or the email address of the person you know so that myself and everyone else on here can hear this news for ourselves? It would help if we had official sources to this .

When I went on Veoh and found that "The Facts of Life Down Under" had been removed, I attempted to contact the person who uploaded it and asked why, but didn't get a response. Then I saw a whole bunch of episodes were removed and I asked the girl who posted them why she took them down and she said the powers that be took them down. So, sadly, even Veoh isn't immune to Sony's evil ways.

That sucks, I wish Sony would get with the program and just release the rest of The Facts of Life on DVD. Family Ties, I think came out after FoL and it's on Season 5 already!

I tell you one thing I was glad to watch Season 4 on Youtube before it was deleted especially FoL Goes to Paris one of my favorites.

On a slightly different note, I forgotten that Family Ties had a special too, Family Ties Vacation (which they go to London), Season 4 and it's on DVD.

Just type in "The Facts of Life Goes to Paris" in the search bar on YouTube. I'm not even going to bother watching these episodes anymore, because the people who said they were going to put more episodes up on Veoh aren't doing so anymore. So, the hell with it.
