A spin-off from the tremendously popular TV show Diff'rent Strokes, The Facts Of Life is the hilarious series that follows Mrs. Edna Garrett (Charlotte Rae) and her mission, as housemother, to instil values in the girls of Eastland School.

The large first season cast included John Lawlor, Jenny O'Hara, Lisa Whelchel, Felice Schachter, Julie Piekarski, Kim Fields, Molly Ringwald, Julie Anne Haddock and Mindy Cohn. By the second season, the show focused on Mrs. Garrett and just four Eastland girls - spoiled Blair, gossipy Tootie, wise-cracking Natalie, and newcomer to the group, rebellious Jo (Nancy Mckeon). Under Mrs. Garrett's guidance, these four go from wide-eyed school girls to mature young women...all while learning The Facts Of Life!
