Post The amazing changing Blair hair

Did anyone else notice that Blair's hair totally changed in the middle of the episode where Kevin moves into the attic? By the end of the episode she was sporting her new 'do that she didn't have in the beginning. I thought that was kind of funny. I also thought it was funny that they constantly had to change Lisa Whelchel's credit in the opening theme because she changed her hair so often. Tootie was the same for like 3 seasons (you know what I'm talking about, when she mouths "Rick Springfield" and Blair was changed like 3 times per season. Just thought that was funny.

I have been noticing things like that for years. Tootie did change in the opening credits. 2nd season she is smiling in front of the camera then there is a different shot of her later. She is actually saying "Wow what a hot mama" ,I think. Third season she is brushing her hair saying "I know" with braces, then there is another shot with her in a sweater later in that season, then next season she has on an eastland P.E. suit talking about Rick Springfield and the shot stays the same till the 6th season when she giggling, then in that season she gets a new shot without her braces. Seasons 7-9 She keeps the same shot with her hat on in the over our heads store.

Blair has a different shot each season. The 1984-1985 episodes had Jo walking away with Blair giving one of her "dont be silly" looks. 1985-1986 has Blair with her teased curly hair. 1986-1987 has Blair tossing her hair with her hand. 1987-1988 has Blair with long hair with a bang in front in a black dress talking as she is leaving out the door. Things like these are minor but you can't help but to notice.

Natalie had the same shot from 1985-1987 then she had changed her look a little and had a different shot with longer hair.

It's fun to notice stuff like that.

In the 84-85 season, her hair took a drastic turn.I think everybody's did. And when Jo is walking away, she's calling Blair a 'jackass'. Funny little things like that to notice, heh.

I didn't know that's what jo is sayin! FUNNY! I notice stuff like that too, which is unusual for a guy but anyway, Tootie wears Jo's Purple coat with the two pink stripes, and then Jo wears that ugly tan blazer that Blair wore on new girl (jo wears it on "Tootie Model" whatever that one is called) And Jo wears one of Blair's dressed on the ep where she is meeting her boyfriends parents.

The changing hair was a riot!! I did like Jo's ponytail though, maybe because I usually wear mine the same way, it's a sickness!! In the over our heads episodes the hair was crazy, Blair's especially. But that was the 80's My hair was a bonde side pony a la Crissy Snow from 3's Company, Thank goodness all pictures were destroyed

Oh MY GOSH!!! did anybody notice how that jacket that Jo wore in that episode Teenage Marriage was handed down and down and down!!! It was hard to see how Jo fit into that thing!!! First it was Jos then it went to Tootie for many years until she developed her chest area then it went to Danny in the episode Next Door when he didnt have a coat... he wasnt DROWNING in it, but it wasnt exactly perfect like it was for jo and tootie, it was hard to imagine that at one time jo fit into that thing!! i thought it was SOOOO funny how that coat was handed down and down and down, and i think in a later episode andy even wore it once when he didnt have a coat and they let him borrow that one... FUNNY STUFF!!!
