Now, I have no idea what its gonna be called, maybe "The New Facts Of Life" or "The Facts Of Life: Newly Done", but i know it'll be on ABC as the Fall or winter 2000 lineup. But it'll focus (the first episode) around Jo's death in a motorcycle accident, and there will be a new tootie.
FOL REUNION SHOW CAST MEMBERS

GUEST STARS (First Episode)

I was guessing on some of the cast, so don't get mad at me if you don't see that particular person on the show.

Thank you for pointing that out. Not a lot of people know.

I thought it was supposed to be a reunion movie not a revamped mid-season replacement? Someone is replacing Tootie? Kim Fields should be grateful to get the work at all considering the track record for most young child stars.

You forgot to mention other guest stars:

Felice Schacter.......Nancy Olsen
Julie Piekarski/Probst...Sueann Weaver
Julie Ann Haddock....Cindy Webster

I dont believe they are bringing the show back as a new sitcom, its more than likely going to be a reunion movie very much like they've done with "growing pains" this year.

BTW, I thought FOL was an NBC show, if so why are they doing the reunion on ABC??

The reunion isn't going to be a regular tv show. Its just going to be a movie!

i am pretty sure that it is not a show as in a regular series, but it is a movie and it will be airing in the fall of 2001 if all goes well
