Okay listen hi,
We're a couple of queer wives who do a podcast about the 1980s sitcom The Facts of Life. We know that's absolutely from over 40 years ago but there are people who are discovering it or still loving it and whatever. And our take is that we're revisiting and recapping the episodes from the perspective of being queer viewers who grew up when there wasn't any real queer representation on television.
We're fans who want to discuss the intended narrative alongside the subtext that comes through when we want to see ourselves in mainstream media.
Thanks for reading all this and, if you decide to listen, thanks for that, too.

Well well well, I’ve finally finished the Facts of Life and man it really went out with a whimper didn’t it 😭.
As much as I enjoyed some parts of season 9, I definitely think I’d rather have the finale for Season 8 be the ending of the show since it fit so well. A bonus to that would be not having to see Jo and Rick get married which I did not enjoy.
Going into the show knowing that Jo was going to get married at the end, I already knew disappointment was in store but I thought it’d be better than this! Jo and Rick’s relationship isn’t fleshed out AT ALL and I have no idea why Jo likes this guy, we didn’t even see them get together, they just start dating out of the blue!!! Having Tootie and Jeff get married in that episode is would’ve made much more sense and I think I would’ve really liked that.
I also really didn’t enjoy them femming Jo up so much this season. As a sort of masc presenting person myself, it really grinds my gears when female masculinity is treated as a phase that you’ll eventually grow out of. More than that, I just don’t think it made sense for Jo as a character to start dressing this way all of a sudden. Also, knowing that Jo becomes a cop in the reunion movie makes absolutely no sense when looking at the person she’s become by season 9.
I didn’t have any big problems with Natalie or Tootie’s storylines this season, in fact I really enjoyed them and I think they made it through to the end of the show pretty in tact as characters.
I do wish Blair had been able to consistently keep some of the character development she gained over the years. They have so many instances of her being ignorant and stuck up when she’s really grown more than that by now. I know it’s for comedy but it still makes me a little sad.
Finally, Jo and Blair’s dynamic. The premiere of season 9 had me hopeful but sadly, it didn’t maintain. Oh how I long for the casual intimacy they had in seasons 5 and 6. Those girls were together every second back then!!! They’d enter the store together, hang out together, go to events together, study together, and we get very little of that this season. It’s back to the old pretending like we hate each other shtick, which, I guess I understand, it’s a sitcom and people eat that stuff up, but man, if character continuity mattered more, I think they’d be just as amiable as in their early college days.
All that said and grievances aside, I’m still so glad I found this show. It’s made me super happy over the past few months and I think that happiness will carry on even longer . Though I’m sad to think about what the later seasons could have been, I still have the episodes where it was in its prime to rewatch and that’s good enough for me 😌
P.S if I were in charge, I never would’ve moved to Over Our Heads, Edna’s Edibles was my favorite era of the show

I’ve been watching The Facts of Life and I’m curious which caracter is most popular among viewers bc I really have no idea. I know there’s at least a little bit of a fandom on here, so I expect at least some answers. Also, please reblog for larger sample size!

🎶You take the you, take the bad, you take them both and there you have🎶 THE FACTS OF LIFE!
I’ve become obsessed with this show and this cast recently so I knew I just had to make some art of them!
Hopefully there will be more art to come, maybe even some Jo x Blair content 🤭
