Facts of Life -- Season 1 - Dieting Part 1/3

Blair and Sue Ann kid each other about their weight and Sue Ann takes Blair's comments a little too seriously. However, when Blair sets Sue Ann up on a blind date that will involve going swimming, Sue Ann goes on a starvation diet leading to a collapse. Meanwhile, Mrs. Garrett also jumps on the dieting wagon.
This is one of my favorite episodes from season 1!

Gotta luv natelie: "I'm a lover not a fighter!"

"Who wants to be a skinny pencil! I'd rather be a happy magic marker!"

Good message for young girls: Be happy with urself! But stay healthy of course.

Why did they get rid of all the hot chicks at the end of the first season (Nancy, Sue Ann and Cindy) and keep the ugly ones? The only smart move was disposing of Molly Ring-worm. On a seperate note, who's the pedophile watching the girls on the soccer field at the end of the opening credits?

[MrMoodyHyadd]

Holy sheep-shit..I didn't know Molly Ringwald starred in this!

[zachBoy1000]

@winningwarlockvideos lol so coinceidental

[MrRJMGREEN]

Does anyone know how or why Charlotte Rae lost all her weight? Someone let me know.

[whitekid3]

@Lizster88 lol fair enough ... i think what i was going at was the lies that many overweight girls bullshit themselves into believing that being fat and unhealthy is sexy and what they really want to be... when we all know they would luv nothing else but to be slim, in shape, and healthy looking... and it wasn't a insult at you cuz i don't know who u r, but at the bullshit that Natalie was saying... jus my two cents.

[Lizster88]

@whitekid3 And secondly only guys that say THAT are USUALLY (not generalizing) immature pre-teens that probably spend most of their time behind a computer screen/game console that have no social life and that, besides probably being themselves overweight, dumb and peverted-mind, have never actually met a REAL woman before just, if they're lucky, those stupid bimbo airhead women who literally kill themselves trying to become skeletons. Oh, no offense.

[Lizster88]

@whitekid3 ignoring the rudeness of ur comment: first of all, I do find that offensive as u are implying that I am overweight (which I am not! so that rules out that) btw I said HEALTHY is a good place to be at which doesn't imply "big" although that isn't necessarily a bad thing.

[whitekid3]

@Lizster88 yea rite... the only girls that say that are fat pigs that no guys wanna fuck... not to be mean, but let's face reality
