Default FOL mentioned on Watching Ellie...

I just got this in an email.. I didnt get to see it but here's what was said..

for 3 1/2 hours straight. Well, it sounds like you guys had fun, laying around, not doing anything, watching tv . I hate to tell you, ell, but that's what couples do. Yeah, but if we're gonna watch tv all day, why couldn't it have been the french new wave festival on cable? I mean, at least that romantic. Steven and i have been watching the facts of life marathon on nick at nite. Toot just got her period. I am so worried, sus. I really am. I mean, what if this is all a terrible mistake? God. Then what? Is it that bad? Really? Well, i'll tell you how bad it is. I just agreed to go to a concert with edgar. Edgar. That's how bad it was. Ucch. I can't believe it. Well, maybe that's the bonus of seeing a marri ed man. You don't actually get to see him that much. Does he know how you feel? No, he thinks everything is fantastic. Yeah, you gotta talk to m. Stat. Stat? You know, right away. Oh, yeah, i know what it means, "dr." Riggs. I'll go upstairs and talk to him after i get potato. Wait. Get who? Edgar's poodle. He's at ingvar's. That's why we're here. Oh. I thought we were going to starbucks. Ellie: Ingvar? Uh, yeah, i'm down here. Hi, ingvar. Do you have potato?...

HAHA!! Tootie got her period


So how many shows has FOL been mentioned on now??

I know of Family Guy, Everybody Loves Raymond, Watching Ellie, Golden Girls, Married With Children, Roseanne.. and I know theres others probably. I just cant think of them.
