Hey y'all, if you were ever a "Facts" fan or are interested, seasons 1 and 2 came out last week on DVD together! Weeeeeeee! :big_grin:

There are a couple of cool little documentaries, and the '79, '80, and '81 episodes look and sound fantastic.

And here's the Muppet-related part...:wink: ...a teacher calls the girls "the Muppets of Monte Carlo" in season 1, Jo insultingly calls Blair Miss Piggy in season 2, Mrs. Garrett mentions the Muppets in a joke in season 2, and also in season 2 Tootie has a poster of "The Muppet Show" on the wall by her top bunk in some episodes.

Go "Facts"! :excited:

In season 1 it's sweet, cute tomboy athlete Cindy, and then from season 2 on it's no contest---spoiled rich girl Blair Warner all the way. She's hilarious! :big_grin:

Yeah, Nat was great too...she's probably my 2nd or 3rd favorite (Mrs. Garrett is right there too).
