Post Why don't you like the first season girls?

Hey everyone, why don't you guys like the first season girls? Here is what I don't like about them..

*Nancy: All she does is talk about Roger. Well..at least that's all she used to do in the first season...

*Molly: She is just..well..annoying. She is just there. Whenever two girls are having a conversation, she's worse than Tootie in the first season! She is just everywhere and in everything....lol...

*Sueanne: Her voice! She is stuck up..even more stuck up than Blair sometimes. Her voice is just sooo annoying when she makes fun of someone.

*Cindy: Well she is the closest to normal but there's something that I don't like about her..I don't know...but towards the 2rd season she gets snotty...

How do you guys not like them??

I like the early episodes but...

Cindy: had those wimpy,scrawny braids!! A ponytail or barrettes would've been better.

SueAnn: teeth and hair were too perfect.

Molly: she was always singing those horrible rhyming "songs" she wrote on her gutiar!

Nancy: the whole "Roger" thing was being stretched beyond it's means.

There were just too many girls. So they scraped a few of 'em and got Jo. (remember a later episode when they all returned to visit)

The problem with the first season wasn't so much the girls, it was the awful writing.

Not always. Sue Ann would come out on top most of the time haven't you noticed that?
Blair would insult and then Sue Anne would give a comeback.

Sue Ann: ....it makes me realize the hardships my grandparents went through in Kansas.

Blair: Living in Kansas today is a hardship.

Sue Anne: We all can't be in your shoes,Blair.....walking the streets on New York.

I liked the first season girls. I especially loved it when they would appear in later seasons. That was like a bonus.

I didn't care too much if Molly came back but liked the other three. Yes the Roger thing was a little too much at times, but cute. Cindy was OK. Nancy was better in seasons 2 and 3. Sue Ann was good the first season. It was kinda funny how some you members says that Sue yelled her lines. That would crack me up!

Well, now the writing was still good. Episode 1 was excellent. You know, the storyline around Cindy and her being "strange".

There was no reason why they couldn't of put nancy, sueann and cindy in more episodes especially around the time of graduation instead of that annoying princess alex. It would of been cool to see more interaction between JO and those 3. I also wish they showed scenes of the regular dorms of eastland from time to time(miss the set of season one, anyone else)i got sick of looking at that cafeteria all the time.
