About The Facts of Life: At the Eastland School in Peekskill, New York, Edna Garrett (Charlotte Rae) oversees the day-to-day lives of students who come from all walks of life. Under the care of this slightly nutty but always caring housemother is the beautiful, rich and spoiled Blair Warner (Lisa Whelchel); the witty, plump and impressionable Natalie Green (Mindy Cohn); Dorothy “Tootie” Ramsey (Kim Fields), the young and persistent campus gossip; and Joanna “Jo” Polniaczek (Nancy McKeon), a Bronx-born and bred streetwise kid whose tough exterior masks the brains and compassion she's hiding underneath. Whether it's the challenges posed by Eastland's academic and social scenes, the rise, fall and rebirth of the businesses they start and run together, or the comings and goings of new faces in school and town, including Edna's replacement (and sister) Beverly Ann Stickle (Cloris Leachman), the girls are always ready for a new challenge, and perceptive enough to learn from each new situation.

Blair wanted to know some facts of Natalie's life 😄

[@wisperrr.]

Tootie at the start 😂

[@lindaeasley5606]

Facts of Life was in it's prime from the 2nd season to the 4th 👍

[@tanquantwal]

My favorite seasons ❤

[@samsticka]

Jo at 4:12 - "Don't have a cow, Blair!" So she said "Don't have a cow" long before Bart Simpson ever did. Do you suppose maybe Bart picked it up from Jo?

[@mollyjones4165]

I don't know about Bart but that's where I got it from.

[@ravenel2]

Everyone said it before Bart Simpson. It was a thing in the early 80s.

[@OceanLover1188]

It's from the 1950s, so it was around long before The Simpsons and even this show

[@millenniumman75]

3:48 - the shot of Kim Fields used for her opening credit for over two years!

[@jenniferhansen3622]

You're right!

[@samsticka]

2:01 - Tootie: You had diaries way back then? Mrs. Garrett: Yes. I carved mine on a rock. At least Tootie didn't make a dinosaur joke afterwards. Mrs. Garrett would not have liked that.

[@samsticka]

4:48 - Uh-oh. Blair's busted.

[@jaredmayo5820]

Natalie likes her privacy and considers being nosey too much like a stalker

[@oooh19]

Yea everyone likes their privacy

[@victorbrown1316]

"Track you down, wherever you are on the face of the earth".

[@richardgarcia618]

The best line was "What's the big deal? Plastic surgery is in your future anyway."

[@kimba7567]

Best memories watching this show

[@monicasavage9920]

I like this show the facts of life show !

[@amyfrink6524]

Natillie and Jo are my favorites!!!❤

[@nataliemscrzysxycoolharris]

Natalie ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💯

[@samsticka]

Now that I think about it, how did Jo not stink up the room when she took her shoes off? Think about it. She was out running around engaged in physical activities. So her shoes should be all sweaty and smelly.

[@perryegolson833]

Also why would she sit down on the clean bed still wearing her dirty, grimy field hockey gear?

[@samsticka]

@@perryegolson833 Beats me. I guess personal hygiene isn't a priority for Jo?

[@opiokapi4418]

Love 💗🧸

[@jeffgalus8454]

The thing is Natalie was right about Family Fued

[@stephenholloway6893]

Especially during the Dawson era.

[@samsticka]

Yep, Richard Dawson kissed the female contestants.

[@samsticka]

Why does Jo have to take her shoes off to take her kneepads off?
