Talking Fear Strikes Back...

Anyone else looking forward to seeing "Fear Strikes Back" today? I've been waiting to see it since I first knew about it and it's finally going to air.

Not really. I heard that it is a lame episode. I don't know if that's true but we'll see . . .

Yeah, I'm watchin' it right now!!

I remembered Natalie's scene in the lounge, and Mrs. Garrett yellin' "FIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRREEEE!" in the self-defense part (though it hasn't gotten that far yet).

I LOVE seein' episodes you haven't seen since you were a kid!

No. It was a very good episode! I mean how would you feel if you were attackted like that? It was dumb for N@N not to show it because there was nothing wrong with the episode. It shows that there are people out there and you have to be careful

And another question, is anyone sure that N@n didn't play it? Because I for some reason really remember the schene where Natalie walks into the cafeteria dressed as Charlie Chaplin. I'm for sure she did, but if it was controversial and didn't show it then I think I must be going psycho.

OK, I'm sure that I could look this up, but I'm lazy. What's the story line for that episode?

No, you're not going psycho. Nick at Nite used several clips from this episode in some of their advertisements for FOL when they were still airing it.

The storyline is that everyone goes to a costume party, and when Natalie decides to leave, she walks back home by herself and is assulted.

Yes. It was a very good episode! Blair and Jo were very funny in that episode episode. I felt bad for Natalie though, I like the real-life topics though, there are real valueble for our society! I don't see why it has to be a 'contriversal episode' though. They had great costumes in that episode though, but Blair and Jo were just screaming for a laugh. I really enjoyed that episode! ; )

Ah...My tape stopped. But I got to see Fear Strikes Back..It was good, but made me realize that "Natalie" isn't a very good dramatic actress.

Her scene in the lounge after the attack gave me chills...I really liked it.

I missed it and I didn't even tape it. (Stupied) My mom and I were in town and it was about 3:30 and we were at my grandparents just ready to come home and I was like good then I have time when we get home to get the tape in and all that jazz but just as we were leaving the phone rings and Megan my sister0in-law calls and says that her dog Bailey got ran over and she was beside herself so we went over there and we ended up staying there till 5:00 so I didn't get the ep taped so If anyone is willings to can you type out the ep for me I would really appreciate that since this was one of the eps I was really looking forward to.
