[@drummingdanny84]

All the ladies that made up the core cast are all gorgeous after all these years.

[@ClassicLoverA]

Cloris Leachman is hilarious here.

[@betterthanemril988]

I love how chloris sounds more like her future character Grandma Ida from Malcolm in the middle 😂

[@loganarnoldkicks4321]

Exactly what I was thinking !!

[@purefoldnz3070]

a character was named after a female body part?

[@doody244]

Grandma Ida’s voice had a German(ish) accent and wasn’t high pitched. If anything she sounds like when she played Granny in the Beverly Hillbillies 🎥.

[@michellepost2123]

This is hilarious. I watched the show new. Natalie and Jo were my faves. Jo was like a female Fonzie. I wish these would be shown in full.

[@dannydougin3925]

Why? Do what I do and buy all the TV shows you like on DVD! Problem solved!

[@simonmarshall19]

Beverly Ann really does look like and sounds like Granny Clampett from the Beverly Hillbillies

[@darreylhenderson702]

Yep, and of course you later played the role in the movie

[@darreylhenderson702]

* she later played the role

[@beefy_thevampslayer]

lol Tootie just becomes Regine from Living Single 💙💙💙

[@canadianscratcher7834]

Cloris Leachman was brilliant in this episode.

[@janetduncan87]

None of them look like this. They're all very attractive still.

[@EphemeralProductions]

But it also ain’t 50 years into the future yet. lol

[@SuperMarioBrosIII]

@@EphemeralProductions No not yet but close!🤔⏰🧐👍

[@juliag.5114]

makes you think what the perception of old people was like in the 80s and what’s like today, take lisa whelchel for instance, she’s 60 and looks to be in her 40s

[@johnpauljones9244]

I wish you guys would have put up the full episode 😢, but thanks anyways.

[@twistoffate4791]

Nancy McKeon was my favorite character. Lucky girl dated Michael J. Fox, but married someone else & had children. I was also sorry that her brother, Philip McKeon's career ended too soon & that he seemingly died too soon, at 55, before his time. I re-watched him recently playing Tommy Hyatt on Alice.

[@JustNess78]

I didn't even know that he brother had passed... and so young! Do you know how he passed away? :(

[@Asukenick]

@@JustNess78 From a long illness.

[@janetduncan87]

I know right. He was a Tom Petty look alike. I read he had died. Sad. Nancy did a lot of T.V. movies. Good actress. Tough girl in FOL.

[@robinorlowski2449]

both this show and family ties were on NBC. A cross over where Jo and Alex meet up in NYC would have been awesome. That would have made a good spin off. I also adored Jo, she could and did stand up for herself and others. My second favorite is Natalie.

[@hatednyc]

Seemingly died too soon? So it’s in question that he died too soon?

[@ceasarandrepont1243]

I never seen this episode, how funny. 🤣

[@millenniumman75]

It was during the final season.

[@ceasarandrepont1243]

@@millenniumman75 Thank you, 😉 By that time I stopped watching the show.

[@EphemeralProductions]

This is hilarious! I just can’t get over it!!! 😂❤

[@aaronlbarta]

Cloris Leachman should have won an Emmy for her performance in this!!!

[@JavierValverde-dw7cy]

No she shouldn't have. She already had 9 Emmys. She didn't need another one

[@aaronlbarta]

​@JavierValverde-dw7cy quantity is not the point, talent is!

[@JavierValverde-dw7cy]

@@aaronlbarta Her talent was overrated with the TV shows. Glad she wasn't nominated for this role. Not Emmy worthy

[@afrimtairi4531]

Sorry but cloris can't and never will compare to Charlotte Rae she was meant for the facts of life Cloris is not sorry but she's bad in the facts of life

[@aaronlbarta]

@afrimtairi4531 Charlotte's character and Cloris' character can not be compared. Two totally different personas. Each had their strong points. But Cloris WAS amazing in this. Totally believable she's 90+

[@heathermahony110]

JUST LOVE IT!!!!!!💜💛💕 😊🙏👍⭐⭐ R.I.P. Cloris Leachman!🙏😇

[@b75s]

LoL @ 00:54, that would definitely put Jo' in hot water in today's world.🤣🤣🤣

[@Rebmetpes4]

Premise for Living Single's Regine!

[@jenaumorgan]

Just said the same thing! She reminds me of Regine here 😂

[@micheler1077]

I was thinking the same.

[@Lightdion]

LMAO definitely giving Regine teas

[@doody244]

Chloris Leachman was almost 62 when this episode premiered. That would mean she’s close to 112 here 😂.

[@passatboi]

We're 40 years into the future now! Cloris actually looked like that when she played Granny in the Beverly Hillbillies movie.

[@christmasjoy3887]

I love this!!!!! The all time favorite show that reminds me of my middle/high school years.❤❤❤ True acting that is actually funny. Can’t get over Tootie’s accent!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@ritagreenlaw8923]

Kim Field was my favorite actress on here.

[@jerseytomato100]

When did Blair have a Southern accent??

[@Ælfgifu-1]

Very odd for Blair Warner, of the New York Warners.

[@EphemeralProductions]

Lisa is from Texas so i guess she decided to play that into this scene.

[@nassauguy48]

Blair was originally supposed to be from Texas.

[@juliag.5114]

by that age blair must’ve been married a few times, one of them was probably to a texan lol (also lisa was from texas so she was probably borrowing an old lady accent she heard at some point)

[@enolamsamoht]

Which episode is this???!

[@lorakendall4940]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Oh that's funny‼️

[@BeautyQueen79]

Wait..when was this done?

[@millenniumman75]

Season 9 - sixth episode filmed (around July 1987) - the epsodes aired out of order - it was the 11th broadcast - January 2, 1988

[@AmberNix-k7w]

Why is Blair deep south?😂

[@stacystoltz8722]

❤

[@biruss]

This is 5vyeaes away now

[@jonnyminogue]

Kim Fields rehearsing a beta version of Regine Hunter

[@Rebmetpes4]

I would get turned down by Natalie!

[@buckbeak72]

Tootie's phoney accent (is it because she's a washed up movie star?) is totally annoying. Cloris Leachman is by far the standout, and she's hysterical.

[@stacystoltz8722]

Funny Little show For 8oontv Love
