depending on how old she is, u could tell her there's a really hot guy in it, who she just has to see. or that u'll start to watch it, and if she doesn't like it u will turn it off (but she'll prolly get hooked from the beginning if it's "four musketeers.") or if u have to, be like jo and tell her how it is: it's FOL or nothing. lol, j/k. i actually got my friend to watch it once cuz blair reminds me of her, and i told her, so she had to watch to see who i was comparing her to. lol.

If they're male, and between the age of 14 and 25, tell them it's about four hot young girls who live together, sleep in the same room, and wear schoolgirl outfits.

They'll be hooked without seeing one episode, I guarantee.

The other day, I asked my friend if she'd ever seen FOL, and she said a little of it, and she didn't like it much. So I have to find some way to get her to watch it! Any suggestions? What episodes should I show her? (I've got some on video.)

I wish I had a "success story" to share with you, but unfortunately, I don't. My best friend doesn't like "The Facts of Life". She says she can't stand "old shows".
