I'm going to admit it now. I like Beverly Ann more than Mrs. Garrett. Beverly Ann is just funnier to me than Mrs. G ever was. I like it when she tells those stories and everyone acts like they are sick of it. I just realized it last night when I was watching "Where's Poppa?" and "Seven little Indians". I just think that Cloris Leachman is a lot funnier and cooler than Charlotte Rae. I know all the Mrs. G fans are going to get on my case about this, but I just really seem to love the episodes without Mrs. G, and with Beverly Ann. I still love Mrs. G tho.

I must admit that I thought the Beverly Ann character was going to be awful. Actually, Beverly Ann is pretty cool. Cloris had sense to not come across as a Charlotte Rae wannabe. That makes the BA character better because BA is just another person. (I'm not saying BA is better than Mrs. Garrett, because I like both characters equally)
I have to admit FOL did have it's fair share of awful characters (Kelly and Roy come to my mind), but I like Beverly Ann and Andy and George. I haven't seen Pippa yet, so I might update this post once I see some Pippa episodes. |

I like Mrs. Garrett and Beverly Ann equally. They are just different, just like the girls are different. I like George and Andy, too. Pippa is ok.

I like Mrs. G and BA equally, as well. However, I have no comment regarding Roy, Pippa, and Pippa, lol....

No, I think Beverly Ann is hilarious, but I like Mrs. Garrett more because she has the best advice and she is a kind and caring person. She might not be a comedian like Beverly Ann but I do like both of them in their different ways. I like Beverly Ann because she can be very funny at sometimes, but I like Mrs. Garrett because of her character and personality.

I liked Mrs G better than Beverly Ann but I think Cloris Leachman did do a good job for the part.
I didn't realy mind any of the minor characters, but out of the couple of episodes I've seen her in I don't like Pippa much. |

Well the two are different characters so it takes some getting use to. Mrs. G., a caring person leaves and gets replaced by Beverly Ann, a comedian kinda. That's a major change. Beverly Ann is pretty cool though. She's hilarious at times too. I like the two characters equally.

I liked Mrs. G better and thought I'd hate Bev, but after seeing some of these later eps, she's not as bad as I thought. Hell she was better than Pippa, or so I've heard.
