Default FOL Moments That Made You Talk/Yell Back At The TV!

Okay, you're watching FOL. What moments made you kinda lose it and shout it out at the TV? Mine...(in no particular order)

1. When Jo finds out Eddy is married and she confronts him. (I was like "Eddy! You're such a $%*@!"

2. When Tootie wanted to meet Jermaine jackson and threw that little hissy-fit. (I was like "Smack her Mrs.G!")

3. When Jo left david in the last Paris ep. (I was like "Girrrrrrll are you nuts?! Don't go!")

4. When Jo punched-out Blair in "Best Sister1/2". (I was just like "Whoooaaaa!")

5. When the girls started working in the dining room "New Girl 1/2" and some snooty girl was giving Jo a hard time about her mother being a waitress and Blair shoved some pie in her face. (I was like "Okay Jo, now deck her!")

I'm sure I have a million more but my mind is blank now..How about yours! :-)

Hey, good topic! I know I've talked to my friends, uh, the FOL girls, many times, but I can't think of them right now. I'll get back to you on that.

Oh! I just thought of one! Does singing count? I sing with the girls when they sing in "Cruisin'", and I also sing the theme song every time I hear it.

I agree though, in Starstruck.....I did want Mrs. G to slap her "like in the movies" as Tootie herself would say.then I was like......I WOULD DO THAT!!LOl so then I was like....OH SHOOT! I better see waht Mrs.G does..then at the end of the episode..oh I won't go there...it's weird.

Nothing in particular comes to mind. But everytime Blair said a smart a$$ comment or did something childish to make Jo angry, I thought it would have been hilarious (especially in the older eppies) to have Jo totally lose it and smack her rear a few times. Why not? Don't get me wrong, I loved Blairs character but you have to admit that she did act pretty childish at times and pushed Jo's buttons a little too much. I would have rolled on the floor if it happened!

Default FOL Scream moments

I was angry when I watched the "Americanization of Miko" episode and Jo was telling Mrs. G that the Stray Cats were a really "hot new wave group"--and Mrs. G said, "why does their lead singer have green hair?" I yelled, the Stray Cats were NOT
a "new wave" band, they were ROCKABILLY--bringing back the early rock 'n' roll sounds of the '50s (i.e., NOT one of those skinny-tie bands with the synthesizers, etc., in the early '80s) and also--
Brian Setzer (lead howler and guitar player, for those of you who have their albums) did NOT have green hair!! (He DID look almost as if he was moussed to death--but they were not a dayglo punk band!!)

The shoplifting ep when the girls give Mrs. G that Hawaiian shirt and she tells them she loves it then right after they leave Blair tells Mrs. G she should return I was like that's mean & rude the girls took time and well no money to get her that shirt even though she should take it back.

Also in the ep where Jo is working at that bike shop and she is dating a guy that works there and then she starts acting helpless I was like Jo come on this isn't like you, you would never stoop this low even for a guy.

Int he Ep less then perfect I thought it was stupied Blair wanted to dump Casey just because she had a scar on her face i was like what the heck how stupied can you be scars eventually go away.

There were alot of times actually, but these are the ones that come to mind right now:


When Roy kissed Jo I yelled in agony...I felt as if I needed to wash my mouth out with soap...ick!


In "New Girl" when Jo entered I found myself jumping up and down on the bed...


In...I always forget the name of this ep..."Down and Out in Malibu" or something like that...when Jo left to take that job out in California...I didn't believe she would go. She went back and hugged them and then she got to the door and said bye and actually walked out! AHHHH....I flung my pillow at the TV set. I was so upset! That episode really got to me...


In "Shoplifting" when they walk out of the store with that blouse I help my breath until they got out and then I found myself lecturing them mentall for doing such a thing...




There are SO many incidents. I gotta go to bed now, but I'll post more later. Talk to you all later!

But still, sometimes when the wind is warm or the crickets sing, I dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for.*~
