Man, it's so cool to catch Muppety stuff on one of my favorite shows!
In the first season's 4th episode, "The Return of Mr. Garrett", Natalie, Nancy, Tootie, Cindy, and Molly are gamblin' in one of the girls' rooms. When Mr. Bradely and Miss Mahoney (headmaster and teacher, respectively) catch 'em, at one point Miss Mahoney says, "What we have here are the Muppets of Montecarlo!"
(1979)
Then in a season 2 episode, Jo doesn't want her dad to blab at her award ceremony the fact that he's been in prison, so she says, "I plan to sit right beside him and do all the talkin'." Then Mrs. Garrett says, "Kind of like the Muppets, huh..."
(1980)
Then today, in another season 2 episode, I noticed that in the girls' room above the cafeteria, Tootie has a Muppet poster above her bunk bed! I even have this episode, "Gossip", on another tape from a different station, but I never noticed the poster before! You can only see part of the bottom half, but you can tell it's Fozzie, Kermit, Miss Piggy, and Rowlf, lookin' "at you" and smilin' (you can see Kermit's face a couple of times, anyway).
(1981)
I don't know if the poster is there through the next 3 seasons while the girls are livin' there or not, but it was so cool to see! GO "Facts of Life"! FOL and Muppets rock!
