Jo, of course. I think it was because more people could relate to her. Her parents weren't doctors or lawyers or millionaires. They were just regular people like most of us. And, she didn't always have all the answers. She tried to hide her emotions and feelings much like alot of girls. So, I think she was the most popular because of that.

I'd say Blair Warner was the most popular of the four girls.
Hey, 85% of people polled said they can relate to Blairs good religious ways in later seasons. Jo may have had her days on seasons 2 and 3, but the whole show was always about Blair Warner. Way to go Lisa Whelchel, you go you Texas girl!!!

Have any of you ever heard of an old myth that says that anyone from the great state of Texas always has the popularity thing and fortune thing going for them? It just so happens that Lisa Whelchel and her Blair Warner character are all born in the great state of Texas.

----HEY, THE EYES OF TEXAS ARE UPON YOU!-------


Buy the way, did you know our president of the United States is also from Texas?

Hey, George Bush, Lisa Whelchel, Blair Warner, and Patrick Swayzee all have something in common, they are all from Texas!!!

You see, Jo is a New Yorker and is probably into Hip-Hop music and hard-core gangster rap, while Blair Warner is a 100% pure certified West Texan who probably likes country music and Buddy Holly music. Oh hell yeah, Blair Warner will always be my Texas Tornado.

the whole show was not about blair.
it was equally about all the girls. Oh and the show was originally created for the Character of Mrs. G. It was a showcase for Charlotte Rae, at first. then in season two they cut down the cast and added Jo. after that, it was about the four girls and Mrs. Garrett.
How many eps have you actually seen?

oh and in that one ep where we find out Jo can play the piano do you know what song she plays and sings? "Feelings".......i don't know about you but that doesnt sound like hip hop or gangster rap to me.

Feelings, nothing more than feelings, trying to forget my feelings of love. tear drops rolling down my face.........

If you all think Jo is the most popular character on the show, then why was Nancy Mckeon the last name on the credit billings and Lisa Whelchel the next name on the credit billings after Charlotte Raye A.K.A. Mrs. G?
