Before Charlotte Rae was in charge a bunch of girls in The Fact of Life, her husband was in charge of a bunch of boys in The Phil Silvers Show. She looks the same now as she did when she was 28 in that 1955 episode.

Cloris Leachman (84), Mindy Cohn (44), Kim Fields (41), Charlotte Rae (84), Geri Jewell (54), Lisa Whelchel (47) and Nancy McKeon (45) aka Beverly, Natalie, Tootie, Mrs Garrett, Geri, Blair and Jo were reunited at the TV Land Awards. And even though aging should be bad, they all look good and that’s The Facts of their Life! Can you believe that show debuted in 1979 because they look amazing!
As much as I like this group all together again, they are missing some important cast members like Molly Ringwald, George Clooney and my fav Mackenzie Astin..:(
The cast of The Facts of Life is joining the cast of Welcome Back Kotter and Family Ties, and reuniting at this year’s TV Land Awards on April 17th. Mindy Cohn, Kim Fields, Nancy McKeon, Lisa Whelchel and Charlotte Rae will at be at the show to accept the Pop Culture Awards. It is the first time that all of them have been together in over 20 years and I can’t wait to see it. If it is anything like the 2007 reunion between Blair and Tootie on a local Texas morning new show, just imagine how much better it will be when Jo, Natalie and Mrs Garrett join in on the reunion!
And if that doesn’t have you jumping out your seat saying “Ooh-ooh-ooooh! Mr Kotter,” this news will because TV Land confirmed today that Gabe Kaplan (Mr. Kotter) and Robert Hegyes (Juan Epstein) will be joining the other Sweathogs to accept their 35th anniversary award. I can’t wait to see all of those Sweathogs today!
Seriously how cute is The Facts of Life’s Natalie aka Mindy Cohn as she is sincerely surprised that the paparazzi are interested in her. If I had the choice to photograph Mindy Cohn or Meg Ryan, it would be Mindy Cohn everytime. She is still as sweet as she was as when she was on the show!!!
Kim Fields had a baby boy on Friday named Sebastian Alexander Morgan according to People. Kim Fields and her boyfriend of a "couple of years", Chris Morgan decided to have a baby last summer, "We were on the subway one day and Chris said, 'I'm ready to start our family' It was beautiful and I started to weep." That is so romantic, not.
Even though Tootie's son has a normal non-Hollywood name, if her baby was a girl she would not have been so lucky, her name would've been Aria Grace.
