Talking Season 7 Had Some Boring Episodes

The one when Jo takes ballroom dance.

The one when Blair gets stuck in an elevator.

The one with Tootie playing an agent for a commedienne.

Didn't like neither of these episodes. But, FOL, still remains one of my favorite tv shows of all time Not every episode of a tv show can be gold

Season 7 is not the only one. Season 6 was a snooze-fest. I think the quality went down in the Over Our Heads years.

Also, any episode with a backdoor pilot was boring.

FOL was good up to the end of season 6: MRS G was still the strength of the show + the mother's girls but from season 7 onward she became kind of like a ghost and eventually left.......

I so agree. I have thought the same thing since being a kid. Some episodes just did not interest me at all. I still watched, though and still remain a proud fan on the plus side.

I didn't start appreciating season 6 until recently, in the wake of missing my college years. I felt like this season the girls REALLY showed how close their relationships are. Don't get me wrong, mrs g is actually my favorite character on the show, but I really enjoyed seeing their adventures and life in college more (even though nat and tootie were technically in high school) and it made me miss my friendships during my college years (I'm 5 years graduated). Some of these episodes include the last drive in, cruising, gone with the wind, and I forget the name of the ep where jo is working the radio station. And also some great serious eps, with a little help from my friends and working it out. I have a lot of appreciation for season 6.
