FOL is starting to suck! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

FactsFan4Ever · 06-08-2001, 09:59 PM

I thought I'd be a fan forever, but once you've seen evey episode, you get kind of get sick of the show. Blair isn't the same because you've heard all of her ideas. You've heard all of Jo's smart remarks. You've heard all of Tootie's problems. And you've heard all of Nat's stories. I just think it is starting to suck, what about you?

I agree that the watching every ep over and over again is totally annoying, but it doesn't exactly suck.

Maybe you ought to thing about changing your username then, FactsFan4Ever. It appears as though it doesn't so much apply anymore.

Jo keeps me hooked. The lessons keep me hooked. The laughs keep me hooked. The bonds between the friends keep me hooked. I'm still kooked.

well, i think the show still rocks!! I mean, "factsfanfeva' if you dont like it no more...then stop watching it, simple solution. I dont think no one is going to break down in tears because you no longer like a show that took place 20 years ago

If you think it sucks, then why do you come to this website?

Facts Of Life is a wonderful show,and I have taped many of what I think are the best episodes.I understand how some can get tired of a show if you have seen every episode over and over and over and over and over again,but not everyone feels that way.Familiarity never breeds contempt if you are a TRUE fan-as many of these posters seem to be.

Julia9 · 06-09-2001, 06:32 PM

How could you not get tired of it, watching the episodes over and over? That's why you take a break and come back to it when the jokes and the stories start to get a little fuzzy. That's what I do. Same with music, I have a hundred CDs that I've played a gazillion times. After a time I need to put them on the shelf and not look at them for a while or else they'd drive me crazy. It's always fun to come back to them and go "oh yeah, that's why I love it so much!"

ISmellFine · 06-09-2001, 07:30 PM

I gotta agree with FactsFan4Ever... well, it's doesn't exactally suck, but I've just lost interest. I'm not as "obsessed" as I used to be, I'm more obsessed with Nancy and The Divsion than FOL. Everybody is enitiled to their own opinion. You don't have to put down everybody's opinions though. That's why I hate coming to this board, most everybody has such a bad attitude towards everybody and everything. God, just stop.

On April 24, 2008, Dana and I are gonna meet Nancy McKeon [Jinny Dearest]! We're gonna handcuff ourselves to her car... or better yet, to her! And you're not! And we're also gonna handcuff ourselves to Jay Harrington [Teddy Dearest].

Jinny: All right, all right, enough! Put your hands up! Look buddy, I've got PMS and a gun,
any questions!?

Jinny: You're a peach.

Jinny: God, she's got a bug up her ass for me.
C.D.: Why?
Jinny: Oh, how should I know? Maybe, I am not her idea of what a lady cop should
look and act like.
C.D.: Did she tell you that?
Jinny: No, everytime she looks at me I get this flashback of my Aunt Irene's expression
when I showed up at my sweet 16 wearing cut offs and a t-shirt saying ,"Got any lately?"

Magda: What is that?
Jinny: It's a list of guys that I've slept with, ones I can remember anyway. Our delightful
Captian's idea.
Magda: You're gonna need a bigger book.
Jinny: *looks at Magda* What do we really know about anybody, ya know? Any cop or Jinny haters here today?! Raise your hand!

Jinny: Captain Amazing here decided to defend his wallet and laptop to the death. It didn't work, but you gotta admire the effort.
Teddy: My whole life was on that laptop.
Jinny: Ooh, sad commentary.
Angela: Did you see his face?
Teddy: White male, 18 to 22, shaved head, dagger tattoo on his wrist. I mean, he caught me by surprise, I could've taken him.

You're right! I've tried that before with other things. I think the thing that I watch most now is Friends, but I don't think many people do. FOL has to most dedicated fans. That also makes it bad. It isn't cool anymore because everybody is watching it. I like to be my own person, who agrees? I mean, you can be your own person and still watch FOL, but I just don't like being in the middle of a huge fad.

Actually, although I don't watch friends, I strongly sense that it is watched by more ppl by far than FOL. When I go out into "the real world", I always hear ppl discussing that show.

Friends is a show of today, so naturally the current audience will be greater than that of FOL. FOL, on the other hand, does have several fans, considering that it is a show from the 80's. And astoundingly, FOL is the most discussed TV sitcom on the internet (so it appears). But that doesn't necessarily make it the most popular....
