The same person who plays Mr. Drummond plays Jo on FOL, Arnold is played by a girl, she also plays Tootie, and Kimberly is played by the same person as Blair.

Kay Scarpetta · 06-04-2002, 07:46 PM

That is very..........disturbing.

Mr. Shy Guy · 06-04-2002, 07:50 PM

I don't even really know what to think really. And look at "Arnold", look at the legs. It really looks odd.

Mr. Shy Guy · 06-04-2002, 07:53 PM

Actully when I look again, that persons on her knees. I wonder if she's gonna be like that the whole show or something.

west01 · 06-04-2002, 09:59 PM

If you haven't already noticed from the picture, it looks like they copied arnold's body and then just stuck a different actor's head on there.. If not, then that is really disturbing... Notice the arms.... They look way too long to fit on that body.. I agree with Jethro.. Why are they trying to ruin the original show?

DarleneIllyria · 06-05-2002, 01:58 AM

Well, that looks kind of odd but whatever floats your boat....I guess....

vienna waits · 06-05-2002, 01:59 AM

Arnold is just on his knees Id say. And I'm guessing they remaking "The Rivals" since Lurleen is a character and she was only in one episode...

Sean Snow · 06-05-2002, 12:55 PM

LOL! I dont' think they're trying to ruin the original, it's just a sumemr comedy thingy lol. It's a little frightning tho *shivers*

BLAIROCKS · 06-06-2002, 12:59 AM

I do not think that this is funny at all. The actors playing them are horrible and they don't look anything like the real characters.

west01 · 06-06-2002, 09:56 AM

I don't know about that blairocks... i think the guy playing mr. drummond looks a little similar to the mr. drummond of DS.. that's the only character that looks kind of like an original cast member though.. whoever thought that that girl looks like kimberly has something wrong with them
