For all you Jo fans out there, do you remember how Jo came in the second season? Well, do you think the first season was better than with Jo, or not. Why?
------------------ Blair: Sometimes I play a little too much attention to fashion. Jo: You mean not enough! Steve: Start from the beginning, tell me everything. Jo: Ok, I have a problem. Her name is Blair, we had a fight I hate her guts what do I do? Alex: And you must be Jo.... Jo: I have one simple question for you, who are you? Mrs. G: Since when did we start selling video cameras? Tootie: It's not a camera. Mrs G: Then what is it? Another gum dispenser? Tootie: No! It's a phone! Mrs G: Then why are we selling it for half-off? Jo: It only makes local calls. Blair: Jo's father is here. do I have the JUICEST secret. Mrs G: Well let's just keep it a secret then. Blair: But it's SOOOO Delicious! Mrs G: BLAIR! Blair: Jo is really named Joanna Marie Jo: My dad calls me that sometimes (Quickly tone changes) But nobody else! ( Holds up a fist) Blair: I prefer Jo my self. Jo: How about a free face life Blair, right off your neck? Jo: What's that disgusting smell? Why Blair, it's you! Blair: I don't mean to be rude but... Jo: I know, you just can't help yourself. Blair: Jo, I just want you to know that you and Eddie have my blessing. Jo: Why, that's nice Blair, you know what that means to me, ( smiling) Nothing!!! Jo: Ya born, you live, you die, that's life. |

Okay, I know this topic is pretty old, but I've got an answer. I think the first season sucked! Of course, I had already seen season 7-9 (I think!) and I kept thinking, this scene would have been better if Jo were there, or Blair would have regretted saying that if Jo were around. Jo all the way!

I agree! All the first season girls were so perky and perfect looking, and Jo was such a contrst to that. She was so imperfect and flawed, she really brought a lot more to the show.

I agree totally! I think the best thing about Jo is that she's not a rich kid. Even later in the show, she was always the one who had financial problems, and I think the fact that she's a very human character really made the show great. Not to say the other characters didn't do anything important. The show wouldn't have made it that far without them, and I think Jo just helped make Blair, Nat, and Tootie better characters too.

i like the seci=ond thru ninth sesons WAY better. i think the only thing that made the first season as good as it was was mostly Blair tootie and nat. most the eps. were like pointless sometimes. well at least to me. but then when they kicked all those girls off and brought Nancy McKeon to the show made it a lot better as everyone else said.
