You don't own them uncut with the 2-3 minutes per episode that Nick at Nite has edited out.

callmetootie · 04-04-2001, 06:50 PM

Are you going to buy them?

Notice the videos have subjects and are not in order. Maybe in the future, there will be one called "Maturity" or somethin, and it will have Ready or Not and The First Time!!! Woo Hoo!!!!

The Facts of Life are all about You!

callmetootie · 04-04-2001, 07:56 PM

Wouldn't that be a hoot! I could only imagine how much constroversy that would cause. That's a good idea though. Let's think of some subjects! Something like "Cooking and Creating" with ones like A Slice Of Life and Dieting. Or maybe like "Father's Day" with ones like The Secret.

I will most definitely be ordering the set.

callmetootie · 04-04-2001, 08:50 PM

Just rememeber that buying the series will cost a lot of cash. That's 209 episodes, and $20.00 for 4 a tape. The bill will come to....$1,040.

Hey Sara or anyone else that knows:
When you call do you have to use a credit card or can they bill you and then pay by check. I would rather pay by check then use my credit card, but I have to pay my car insurance bill and registration before I order anything!

TJ · 04-05-2001, 02:04 AM

If you order by phone, I believe you have to use a credit card. But if you order via the regular mail, you can pay by check or money order and they bill you for every video when it arrives.

callmetootie · 04-05-2001, 07:36 AM

With a check it will take longer to recieve though, because they have to clear and all that stuff.

Just out of curiosity, if I wait until later to start my subscription, will I be started with the current volumes, or will the still start me with the ones listed above? I'm not a huge fan of the Season 1 episodes and don't really want to pay $20 for them.

callmetootie · 04-05-2001, 10:10 AM

That's not how it works, the videos are split up into different categories. Like the Mrs. Garret tape has episode revovlving around her. The parents tape has episodes revolvong around the girls relationships with their parents.

are u guys sure there releasing the whole series? thats over 50 tapes, I don't know if thats possible for them. Has it been done in the past? I mean I'll order if they have the drug related eps. and the eps. that nick don't want to air. I'll wait a while and view it. And I'll see if it suits for me to buy it. I probably end up buying it any way. It'll take years for them to come out with the whole series on tape. But hey it'll be cool, I'll buy it if its the whole set. expensive but you'll be paying it little by little anyway. So theres no difference.
