The Facts of Life is an American idiot box sitcom created by Dick Clair and Jenna McMahon and a spin-off of Diff'rent Strokes that originally aired on NBC from August 24, 1979, to May 7, 1988, making it one of the longest-running sitcoms of the 1980s. The series focuses on Edna Garrett (Charlotte Rae), as she becomes a housemother (and from the second season onward, a dietitian besides) at the fictional Eastland School, an all-girls boarding schoolhouse in Peekskill, New York.[1]
Plot [edit]
Season 1 [edit]
A spin-off of Diff'rent Strokes, the series featured the Drummonds' former housekeeper Edna Garrett (Charlotte Rae) becoming the housemother of a dormitory at Eastland School, a individual all-girls school in Peekskill, New York. The girls in her intendance included spoiled rich girl Blair Warner (Lisa Whelchel); the youngest, gossipy Dorothy "Tootie" Ramsey (Kim Fields) and impressionable Natalie Green (Mindy Cohn).
The pilot for the show was originally aired as the terminal episode of the first season of Diff'rent Strokes and was called "The Girls' School (a.g.a. Garrett's Girls)." The plot line for the pilot had Kimberly Drummond (Dana Plato) requesting that Mrs. Garrett help her run up costumes for a student play at East Lake School for Girls, the school Kimberly attended in Upstate New York, every bit her dorm's housemother had recently quit. Mrs. Garrett agrees to help, puts on a successful play and also solves a trouble for the fellow-obsessed Nancy Olsen (Felice Schachter) as she too meets Blair, Tootie, the pocket-size-boondocks girl from Kansas Sue Ann Weaver (Julie Piekarski), and the budding activist Molly Parker (Molly Ringwald). Mrs. Garrett is asked to stay on as the new housemother but states she would rather remain working for the Drummonds at the finish of the pilot. Following the pilot, the proper noun of the school was changed to Eastland and characters were replaced, with Natalie, athletic tomboy Cindy Webster (Julie Anne Haddock), and Mr. Bradley becoming part of the main group featured. Although Kimberly Drummond is featured as a educatee at East Lake, her character did not cross over to the spinoff series with Mrs. Garrett. In the evidence'due south first season, episodes focus on the issues of seven girls, with the activity normally set up in a large, wood-paneled common room of a girls' dormitory. Likewise actualization was the school's headmaster, Mr. Steven Bradley (John Lawlor) and Miss Emily Mahoney (Jenny O'Hara), an Eastland teacher who was dropped afterward the first four episodes. Early on episodes of the show typically revolve effectually a central morality-based or "lesson teaching" theme. The testify'due south pilot episode plot included a story line in which Blair Warner insinuates that her schoolmate Cindy Webster is a lesbian, considering she is a tomboy and oftentimes shows affection for other girls. Other flavour one episodes deal with issues including drug use, sexual practice, eating disorder, parental relationships and peer pressure.
Seasons 2–8 [edit]
The producers felt that there were too many characters given the limitations of the half-hour sitcom format and that the plot lines should be more focused to give the remaining girls more room for character development. Iv of the original actresses—Julie Anne Haddock (Cindy), Julie Piekarski (Sue Ann), Felice Schachter (Nancy) and Molly Ringwald (Molly)—were written out of the show, although the 4 did brand periodic invitee appearances in the second and third seasons, and all but Molly Ringwald appeared in one "reunion" episode in the 8th flavour. Mr. Bradley's grapheme was as well dropped and replaced past Mr. Charles Parker (Roger Perry). Mr. Parker appeared in episodes through the beginning of season five.[2] In addition to being housemother to the remaining girls, Mrs. Garrett became the school dietitian as the second flavor began. Jo Polniaczek (Nancy McKeon), a new educatee originally from the Bronx, arrived at Eastland on scholarship. A run-in with the police forced the four to be separated from the other girls and work in the deli, living together in a spare room next to Mrs. Garrett'southward bedchamber. The flavor two premiere of the retooled series saw an firsthand ratings increment. By its third season (1981–82), Facts of Life had become NBC's No. ane comedy and No. 2 overall NBC plan, beating its predecessor, Diff'rent Strokes, for the first time.[ commendation needed ]
In 1983, Jo and Blair graduated Eastland Academy in the highly predictable season four finale "Graduation". To go on the four girls under one roof, the hour-long flavour five premiere "Brave New Globe" saw Mrs. Garrett go into business organisation for herself and open a gourmet food venture named Edna's Edibles. The iv girls came to alive and work with Mrs. Garrett in this new refreshed infinite. In September 1985, NBC moved the seventh season of the series to its burgeoning Sabbatum dark lineup at 8:30, as a pb-in for the new series The Golden Girls at ix pm. In an endeavor to refresh the "ratings work horse" and increment ratings, George Clooney was added to the regular bandage and Mrs. Garrett'southward store was gutted by fire in the season 7 premiere "Out of the Fire". The follow-upwards episodes "Into the Frying Pan" and "Grand Opening" had the girls bring together together to rebuild the shop with a pop culture-influenced gift store, called Over Our Heads. The changes proved successful as all three episodes placed in the elevation ten ratings each week. By the end of the flavour, TV Guide reported, "Facts ' success has been then unexpected that scions of Hollywood are still taken ashamed by it ...Facts has in fact been among NBC'south top-ranked comedies for the past five years. It finished twenty-seven overall for the 1985–1986 season, handily winning its time slot against its most frequent competitors, Airwolf and Benson. Lisa Whelchel stated, 'We're easily overlooked considering nosotros've never been a huge hitting; we just sort of snuck in there.'"[3]
Charlotte Rae initially reduced her office in seasons vi and 7 and afterwards decided to leave the series altogether, assertive she had done all she could do with her character and desired to motion on to other projects.[4] In season eight's heavily promoted one-hour premiere, "Out of Peekskill" Mrs. Garrett married the man of her dreams and joined him in Africa while he worked for the Peace Corps. Mrs. Garrett convinces her sister, Beverly Ann Stickle (Cloris Leachman), to accept over the store and look after the girls. The character of Beverly Ann had a similar personality to Leachman's previous Emmy-winning function as Phyllis Lindstrom on two 1970s CBS sitcoms – The Mary Tyler Moore Show and Phyllis. Beverly Ann later legally adopted Over Our Heads worker Andy Moffett (Mackenzie Astin) in the episode "A Male child About the House". Describing the new changes to The Facts of Life Brandon Tartikoff, NBC Entertainment President, said he "was surprised that The Facts of Life performed well this season, as, with a major cast change and all, I thought information technology might not perform every bit it had in the by. Facts has been renewed for next flavor."[5]

In the ninth and final season, the series aired on NBC's Sat lineup at viii pm, NBC still had conviction in the series, making it the eight p.thou. anchor, kick off the network's 2d-highest rated dark (next to Thursdays).
