Mrs. Garret! Beverly Ann was just sort of there... Mrs. Garret had a purpose. Plus she's so much more fun.

I LOVE mrs. g and you know why.. she is actually involved with the girls... bev was just an extra to keep the ship in order... (Lmao) and so i think that Mrs. G is much more useful.. hell mrs. g is here in teh critical years... bev was there after they really didnt need a housemother type of person...

I didn't mind Beverly Ann that much after a while, but I will always like Mrs. G better! Besides, Mrs. G was definitely more useful. By the time Beverly Ann got there, no one really needed her, so she was just sorta, there. lol

Actually, even though Mrs.G was more useful, I still really liked the character of Beverly Ann. I always thought it would be cool if both beverly Ann and Mrs.G were on the show together as the adult figures.

Frankly, they both kind of irritate me. But if I was a teenager, I'd probably choose Mrs. G., cuz she's a real pushover. I don't know about any of you, but I never got away with half of the crap the girls pulled sometimes.

As an adult, I wouldn't want to live with EITHER of them. But I'd like to be friends with someone as kind as Mrs. G.

I agree that Mrs. Garrett had more of a purpose on the show but B.A. was the one character that always had me LOL! Although Seasons 2-4 are definitely classic FOL, Season 8 with Beverly Ann was the funniest imo.

Everyone knows I am NOT the biggest fan of the last three seasons, so it's not going to be a shock to say i'd perfer Mrs. G over Beverly Ann. And Beverly Ann was not that funny, but Mrs. G was'nt that funny either.

I loved Mrs. Garrett. Beverly Ann was just there. It was hard to get used to her. I think I had as hard a time getting to tolerate Bev as the girls. (More like the hard time Jo had trying to tolerate Bev.) All Bev does is tell long, boring stories, and there's only a couple eps that reall center on just her. She's more like an extra wheel on the wagon.

I don't like either of them, and on the Beverly Ann being funny thing, Beverly Ann acted so stupid sometimes and that what made her somewhat funny.
