"Pick four. Forget everybody else!"
"Pick four. Forget everybody else!"
Those were the words of NBC executive Warren Littlefield, who decided there needed to be a Cast Purge after Season One of The Facts of Life. He believed that there were "too many girls" at... (wait for it) a girls' school. Thus, John Lawlor, Julie Anne Haddock, Felice Schachter, Julie Piekarski, and Molly Ringwald were expelled from Eastland. Head of the Class did the opposite: they started with ten students, and added even more as the years went along, thus disproving the theory that seven students at a school was "too many students" for a 22-minute sitcom. But let's say they didn't. Let's say Warren Littlefield was in charge at ABC, and his head was exploding as he watched the show. Which four characters would you have kept, after Season One of Head of the Class? You only get to keep four students, plus one faculty member. Who will stay, and who will be expelled from Millard Fillmore High School? And why? |
