In a 1984 episode of #TheFactsofLife Blair imagines the year 2000. While she’s a housewife in Texas, Natalie is a writer, Jo’s running Warner Industries, and Tootie is performing for the president. “Oh, yes, she’s a big fan of my work,” she humblebrags. It’s 42 years later, and we’re still waiting

CD#67 #BlackBoxRecorder #TheFactsOfLife #2000 this is the last thing you’d expect an LP created by the Auteurs main man & an ex-JAMC member to sound like. Electronic pop. Topped by a female vocalist with a cut glass English accent. Dark & funny lyrics with excellent tunes especially the title track.

Caught two fun #TheFactsofLife eps today.
"Oh, great, I'm working at half-wattage here" and "A U! Give me back my gold watch!"
and then...
"If the coat didn't make you merry-o, at home there's a brand new stereo!"

Photo of my Facts of Life Jo action figure. The figure wears a traditional all-girls school uniform, casually. Her long tie is loosened. She’s carrying a composition book and smiling.

Photo of my Jo Polniaczeck action figure posed so that it looks like she’s saying hello. Her composition book is in the foreground.

Photo of my Jo action figure standing on my kitchen table. She’s in a wide stance and has long (painted on) socks that come up to almost her knees. Very retro!

Freshly #unboxed this week there’s my #JoPolniaczek 8-inch #actionfigure from #theFactsofLife TV series made by #Mego. She completes the set of 3 that were released in 2018. The character is a tough, independent yet caring teen who was introduced in the 2nd season played brilliantly by #NancyMcKeon.

Jean Elizabeth Smart (Now 73), Remains Active and Has Appeared in Over 105 TV Shows and Movies Since 1979.

A teal pen lies at the top of an open journal. On the page, in teal ink, is written THEME SONG IRONY: "The Venn diagram of when I find myself watching 'The Facts of Life' and 'when the world never seems to be living up to [my] dreams' is a circle."
