Sony, Quit Jerkin' Us Around May 23, 2008

Dear Sony,
Many of us have faithfully bought all the previously released seasons of "The Facts of Life." We have been waiting patiently for over a year now while you guys have forgotten us because of your financially-driven zest to release currently syndicated 'classics' like "Two and a Half Men" (either that, or you've been sitting in the corner eating boogers). Don't get me wrong - most of us who loved the "Facts" girls back in the day are happy that fellow 80s star Jon Cryer has a steady job, but, honestly, give us our "Facts."
NOW!!!!!
Uh, pretty please. Don't make us go harass Charlotte Rae for answers.
PLEASE GIVE ME FACTS OF LIFE SEASON 4 NOW!!!! July 4, 2008

Eastland Academy's Final Year - Episodes with Descriptions January 27, 2010
A.B. (USA)

It has been nearly four years since Sony Pictures have released The Facts of Life: The Complete Third Season on DVD. Today, January 26, 2010, Shout! Factory has announced the next installment: The Facts of Life: The Complete Fourth Season to be released May 4th, 2010 on DVD. Not only does the 4 disc set contain all 23 full length episodes, but one of the special features will include The Facts of Life: Goes To Paris 2 Hour Movie, which, was aired on NBC only days before the fourth season premiered in the fall of 1982.
This marks the last season of the show at Private School Eastland Academy, where the 1983-1984 season starts the beginning of a new era for the show: Edna's Edibles. But let's not get ahead of ourselves just yet. Guest Stars for the fourth season include Eve Plumb (Brady Bunch), Jimmy Baio, David Ackroyd, Gary Hudson, Geri Jewell, Chip Fields (Kim Fields 'Tooties' mother). Mrs. Garrett and the girls learn more about the Facts of Life during Blair and Jo's senior year at Eastland. The season finale featured a double-length episode where Blair and Jo graduate Eastland Academy only to enroll in Langley College in near Peekskill, New York. This season also marks a memorable episodes where Natalie wears her infamous lightning bolt hat in the pillow fight episode, Take My Finals Please!
These episodes are great, the first couple seasons seemed not to quite find it's niche and the writing was very 'cheesy'. As the girls grow up, the subject matter also tends to mature. It just get's better from here on.

my favorite show of all-time August 16, 2008

The Facts of Life was my favorite show of all-time. I taped most episodes off Nick-at-Nite and Hallmark, but that was years ago and the episodes are edited for time. I have the first three seasons on DVD and have been waiting soooooooooooo long for the rest of the seasons. Why isn't Sony releasing them?

This television series came on at JUST the right time as I was growing up. It dealt seriously with many of the issues that young people go through and how to deal with them. As I watched the series (and sometimes my mother did too as it was important to me), I felt that the charachters understood what I was going through and Mrs. Garrett was talking to me just as easily as she was to them. I also liked how the all recognized their talents and managed to work together despite the very different backgrounds. Of course not all the situations are the same now as they were then, but the feelings are and the consequences are too.
Now I can share these series with my daughter as she too will go through peer pressure to do this activity, wear those specific jeans, or go only to this store. I hope that this show will help to give her the confidence that it gave me so Sony--PLEASE RELEASE THE REST OF THIS SERIES!!!
