New Girl steals the entire show
Well, this is where I first came in, half a lifetime ago, South African TV never showed Season One. And this is how I knew the show. Season One's Mrs. Garrett was way over the top, while Lisa Whelchel was way more of a flower. At least here in Season Two, they finally got the song right, and that boring bore of a headmaster is gone. But without Julie Pikarski, Felice Schachter and Julie Anne Haddock, how could they?
Lisa Whelchel"s star is already fading. New girl Nancy McKeon hits it for a six in her debut performance. No wonder I was a Jo fan back in the day. I just didn't know how beautiful Lisa was the year before. But here, it's Nancy all the way!
Cute lines. The one where Jo likens Blair to a self-loving Barbie doll is classic!
Mrs. Garrett "lost 25 big ones"? What happened to them?Unfortunately, they start to migrate... Remember what Joan Rivers called this show later on...
Incidentally, Blair's comment re wearing high heels with denim jeans = tacky... no. Depends, I suppose, but she does talk about Jordache jeans in here as well, and smart-cut jeans paired with strappy high heels oh wow...
