Where's Molly? (1986 ep. "The Little Chill") - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

jasonbigley · 01-03-2012, 07:05 PM

In the reunion episode they did back in 1986, Sueanne, Nancy and Cindy were there, but no Molly. They said on YouTube in the non-syndicated (NBC run) version of this episode, they did mention Molly briefly but this scene got cut in the sydicated version. I know the actress (Molly Ringwald) was busy doing movies at the time, but what about the character Molly? Also, how come she did not do more guest appearances like the other girls did after season 1? In this episode, they should have included John Lawlor (Mr. Bradley).

^ Molly was in season 2, albeit briefly, but she was there.

And the reason "Molly" (the character, not the actress) wasn't at the reunion was because she was really busy with work. (That's what Tootie said, I believe.)

And why would they invite Mr. Bradley? How many girls throw reunions for their old friends and decide to invite the headmaster they never really liked? lol

Yeah. It was a girl's party. I think Mr. Bradley was obsolete after season two. Mr. Harris (Kenneth Mars) was headmaster then Mr. Parker. They then made it seem like Mr. Parker had been headmaster for years for some reason.

Of all the girls from the first year, Molly (the character) was easily my least favorite. She was way too loud and always whining. So for Molly Ringwald to become the big breakout star - I couldn't help but be surprised by watching her episodes.

LOL! I agree with you, Monika! I did not care much for Molly.

She was just so irritating!! I wonder if Molly Ringwald would've had as huge a career as she had back in the 80s if not for John Hughes.

Thomase: No, you are not! You are a little twelve or thirteen year old child with a big mouth who needs to know her place! Shut-up and put the d*mn streamers for up for the harvest moon ball! Kimberly and Drummonds should be here, anyminute!

God, she was such a liberal PC blowhard. I'm glad she wasn't in the reunion, she would have ruined the slumber party.

Not true. She probably would have grown up.
