Mrs. Garrett's weight loss - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TALLguyinKY · 07-16-2002, 05:40 PM

Does anyone else think Mrs. Garrett wasn't as funny after Season 1? I mean, I liked it when she had more weight, cause it made her look a little younger. Once she lost the 25 lbs, it made her look older in the face, and it seemed to kinda limit her expressions.

I mean, I still looooooooove Mrs. Garrett, and she is funny and has some classic moments, but the weight loss just seems to have taken a li'l of the shine away from her.

Anyone else ever think about this?

hmmm...I don't know if it's the 'SHINE' taken away...I mean, I still think she lights up the screen...but, yea she was different...I think it was the different writers...I dunno...maybe I'm too obsessed to see it...

I don't agree. I think all the weight loss did was make her happier. I think she still glowed and was still as funny as ever!! I think she looked GREAT after 1st season!

I think she was as funny in Season 2. Even dunnier. Remember in New Girl part2 when she was talking to Arnold and walked towards the window where she found teh van was gone? I though she looked so youthful in that outfit! She was even better in Season 2. To me anyways.

TALLguyinKY · 07-16-2002, 06:17 PM

Yeah, I guess to me it's just her face. More wrinkley and saggy, and lots of eye makeup. lol I love her (heck, she's my 7th favorite sitcom character of all-time), I think it's just gonna take a bit for me to get used to "the new Mrs. G.".

SBTB Geek · 07-16-2002, 06:18 PM

I only noticed that Mrs. Garrett became more serious on the later seasons.

Not really. To me anyway. I still think she looked good. You wouldn't want her to look Joan Rivers would you? She's aging great. I didn't notice any sagging at all.

No, I don't mean in a real dramatic way, just somethin' ya can notice. Since her face was cubby in Season 1, after the weight loss she just looks a little...um..."deflated" in her cheeks and eyes...

And please no one flame me, I'm not tryin' to be mean, I'm just really observant!

I do love Mrs. Garrett!

I think Mrs. G looks good always, no matter what she looks like!

iluvjoandnancy4eva · 07-16-2002, 07:00 PM

I think that Mrs. G was just as funny after she lost weight. Plus I think It made her look better to lose the extra pounds. Good job Charlotte!!

Ditto!

I thought she looked younger in season 2 than in 1

TALLguyinKY · 07-16-2002, 09:30 PM

Ya know, I hadn't thought about it until now, but she also wasn't the star after Season 1---either it was the girls, or she shared it with 'em, or it was her (dependin' on the episode). Maybe that's part of what's different to me---it's cause maybe she doesn't get the time to be as funny as she did in the first season.

That's when she owned the spotlight!
