    David Spades' debut on TV?
    THis one caught me off guard. I was channel surfing tonite and came across the 3rd last Facts of Life and saw David spade spewing his sardonic humour on the set of what looked like an unfamiliar show. Didn't really watch FOL in the last 2 seasons it was on, and this was the funniest episode due to David Spades presence. !!! According to IMDb, this was his first appearance on a TV series/sitcom. Recommended for a laugh and when David (who plays a med student) tries to be very serious at the end of the episode, you can see him trying VERY hard not to Crack up! That's the funniest part! :D Anyways, i guess it was his only appearance on the show, since the last 2 episodes focus only on that Blonde gal from the south Blair. Seth Green shows up on those episodes as well as Juliette Lewis!
