The Facts of Life Reunion 1/9

A widowed Mrs. Garrett is heading back to America on a cruise ship, ready for a new life and also looking forward to seeing her "girls" again, all of whom have grown into successful, independent women: Blair owns Warner Enterprises, which includes a stable of hotels, and is married to Tad Warner, without children. Natalie now serves as a behind-the-scenes producer at CNN juggling an active love life with a frenetic work schedule that takes her all over the world. Tootie, now preferring to be called by her real name, Dorothy, is a Hollywood-based talk show host and the mother of a 10-year-old girl, Tisha. Jo, now a police officer, is still married to Rick Bonner and they have a daughter, Jamie.

Natalie has talked all the girls and Mrs. Garrett into spending the Thanksgiving holiday together back in Peekskill, NY. When Jo is unable to attend the reunion because of work, her teenage daughter, Jamie, comes instead in her absence. Trouble soon starts when Natalie receives two different marriage proposals, so it's up to the girls to help solve Natalie's predicament. Over the course of the holiday, the girls reveal to one another the personal troubles they face in their adult years and discover that, despite the time that has passed, they need each other's friendship more than ever.

@mooky9669 She could have adjusted her shooting schedule - she came out and said she does not like reunion movies and that's why she declined.

One of the best REUNION shows I have ever seen, I know this would never happen but I do wish they did another one they could have Blair and Nats kids attending Eastland

email ? wtf ? was this aired in the mid 90s ?

[mooky9669]

Just not the same without Jo. I remember reading that Nancy McKeon was filming her show on Lifetime, The Division and that's the reson she couldn't be a part of it.

One of the things I've noticed is it had it's own cult following. We just can't get enough of the Eastland girls who took us along for the journey. I can't wait for the next movie to come out.
