Throwback Thursday…Facts of Life
Throwing you back to the late 70s-early 80s for this week….
THE FACTS OF LIFE!
I didn’t realize it was a spin off of Diff’rent Strokes!
But then again, I’m not surprised. I don’t pay much attention to things like that.
All I remember is JO ROCKED!
She was my favorite character. I know…you’re surprised I like the surly, rough chick, huh?
Remember this theme song?

I’m totally going to be humming that tune for days now! Who was your favorite character?

What a great show! I looked forward to it every Thursday night. I thought Jo was hilarious, but I kind of had a soft spot for Natalie. She always seemed to have a devious grin. 🙂 Great throwback!
Lynn Rush
OH YEAH! Her grin! She did have a devious grin didn’t she?
Savannah Chase
I have heard about this show but have never watched it…
Lynn Rush
Ohhhh, missing out, Savannah. 🙂

I loved Jo TOO! And there is a woman who works at my library who looks (and sounds) like an older version of Natalie. It is creepy and yet really cool. I watched re-runs of this show with my mom. Wish it was still on somewhere.
Lynn Rush
Oh wow, really? Natalie did have a distinct voice if I remember correctly.
Lindsay
I remember the show but never really got into watching it. Sorry ladies. Must be a guy thing.
Lynn Rush
LOL! Might be. Especially when George Clooney showed up on a season.
**swoon**
Rachel Firasek
I loved Jo too! The whole show rocked. I watched re-runs forever. LOL
Lynn Rush
Thank GOD for re-runs. I’m gonna go over to Netflix to see if they have this on there….that’d be great!

Yep. I gotta go with Jo, too.

HI, Kat!!! Yeah. Jo pretty much rocked. She had some pretty awesome one liners. Especially with Blair.

I adored Facts of Life. I think Jo was everyone’s favorite, although I did love Natalie’s character too. *sigh* those were the days.

Yeah. Natalie was a cute character. Funny 🙂
