I thought this woudl bring up another good question... becuase this episode being the only one i saw an di watched it over and over i thought of the girls much different than what i think of htem now... liek i thought blair was exactly liek this one girl i know and HATE and she never ever appolagizes or admits shes wrong... she cant even admit if you are her friend... but blair is really sweet!! and caring... and also i didnt knwo how they got into troubel or how jo just entered the show... and how her and blair hated (well somewhat hated) eachother... and mrs. g just seemed like a housemother... not the dieticion and stuff... waht did you all think of hte girls and mrs. g or beverly ann when you first saw the first episode of FOL ever??

------------------
jo: mrs. g gone on ahead I KNOW i can fix the problem
MRs. G: jo only twice in my life have i spoke in an arbitrary manner, once when my ex husband morgaged our home to pay the bookee, and now, GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE OR I'LL BEAT YOU WITH MY FRYING PAN!!!

Tootie: (laughing at nat for her hat)waht should i have said?
jo: (gets up and laughs)
blair: nice hat!! (laughs)
Nat: waths wrong with it? (takes it off and looks at it) Oh good good!!! I'm loosing a bolt im working half wattage!!

blair: now jo i know we usually dont agree but that was a scuzy thing for your mother to do!
tootie: wahts so scuzy about it!?!? dont you read the national enquirer, some of the best peopel are Shacking up!!
mrs. g: TOOTIE!!! im surrounded by x-rated kids!!!

The first episode of Season 3, which was the "I Got Beer"/Tootie gets drunk episode.

That was about a week before N@N re-aired the marathon.

The first one I saw was the week before the marathon re-aired on N@N. It was an Eastland episode but I have no idea which episode it was.

The first Ep I saw was Jo & Blairs Graduation. I loved that one, My favorite part of it was when Blair was looking in a mirror when she had her gown on and said "even I can make this ugly thing look good".

The first one I saw was Rough Housing, but I was doing my Algebra homework and wasn't really paying attention, so the first one I actually paid attention to was IQ

The first one I saw was where Blair get's stuck outside in the barn with mr bradley, and she has a crush on him and stuff. I thought it was so stupid...til the episode after that, which just happened to be the new girl part 1. Ever since then I have been obsessed! I actually didn't like the graduation episode. I LOVE the I got beer ep, and I REALLY liked that one the other night where beverly ann dreamed that everyone died. That was soooo funny! The "tootie" thing was hilarious.

Of course I had seen them before(back when thay were on USA,but I don't remember them at all). But my 'first' episode was 'Love At First Byte' on the last night of the marathon. I was like, "Hey, I remember this show!"

Hmmm...I'm not sure. The first time I caught it accidentally I saw the ep where Jo wants to fix everything and the place is gonna explode, but i didn't pay that much attention. Then I caught the Jo/Blair handcuffed ep...and I think I laughed so hard I became addicted.

------------------
-------------------------
*Jo and Blair rule!*

Nat: Look Jo if you don't get this scholarship you're gonna be back in the BRONX running around with the little pueblos!
Jo: Young Diablos!

BLAIR: Take them off JO!! I dont want to fail!
Jo: will you read my editorial?
Blair: YES!
JO: You PROMISE?
Blair: YES!!
JO: You SWEAR??
Blair: YESS!!!
Jo: i dont believe you (Ducks back under desk with a grin)

(Blair, Tootie and Jo laughing at Natalie)
Natalie: What?
(Continue to laugh)
Natalie: What?!
(Takes off her hat and looks at it)
Natalie: Oh good! Good!! I’m loosin’ a bolt! I’m working half wattage here!!

***Every Jo needs a Blair!***

Nat: A flash back within a flashback....! I'm so brilliant it scares me!

I don't remember the first eposide I ever saw because I started watching FOL, back when it was still airing on NBC. However when it came to Nick at nite, the first eposide I saw was Rough Housing.

See I am only 12, so the first ep I saw was the one where Jo needs Bliars familiys scholarship to stay at Eastland.

------------------
Tootie: I've got it, I'VE GOT IT!
Jo: Well what, are you waiting for a drum roll or something?

Jo: Well, I am not going to stand here playing guessing games. Who is it!?
Pippa: Franny!
Jo: See its just Franny. Who the hell is Franny!?

Pippa: I used her name to prevent any kufufal.
Jo: Yeah well your in plenty of....kufufal know.

Blair: Sure, pretty soon we all will be getting married and moving out, then Pippa and Jo can have it all to them selves.
