Llkoolaid | Monday, May 26, 2003 - 07:02 pm     Fame was one of my all time favorite shows. Remember Leroy, Danny, Julie, Doris,Coco and Bruno. I Loved it and loved Debbie Allen. Mr. Shorofsky(SP)was my fav teacher along with Mrs. Sherwood and does anyone remember Mrs. Berges, the secretary. I think it was like 20 years ago or something like that. |
Seamonkey | Monday, May 26, 2003 - 07:15 pm     A really good shared memory |
Texannie | Tuesday, May 27, 2003 - 05:54 am     One of the best shows. I loved Doris!!!! |
Llkoolaid | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 04:35 am     It was one of the best shows, kids had real problems, they definately were not the Brady Bunch. |
Seamonkey | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 12:04 pm     So, it starts tonight! Two hours.. |
Faerygdds | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 12:16 pm     I grew up watching my parents "edited" version of this movie on VHS. (the removed the Coco rape scene) I grew up watching the TC show. And one year like 1984 or 85, the predecessor to the dare program came to our school. It was called the stars (Students teaching about the risks of smoking - I think)... I got to sing the finale in a duet with one of the girls who was in the all district choir. (I told you I could sing ) The song we sang was, "The Body Electric" It was the finale for the movie as well." Love Debbie Allen and want her legs. Can't WAIT for tonight!!! |
Mware | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 12:48 pm     <...but that would leave her with none.>  |
Babyjaxmom | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 03:00 pm     What about Jesse and the girl Nia Peeples played? They had such a sweet love story. Remember when she wanted to marry him so he could stay in the country, and her parents wouldn't let her cause they knew it would be a "real" marriage (ie. sex!). They were hot! I'll always remember little Janet Jackson on that show in the latter years, too. Didn't she have a big crush on Leroy? Adorable! I was wondering what was going to fill the American Idol gap on my TV schedule. Maybe this will be it! |
Chiparock | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 03:27 pm     The winner will be determined by viewer votes??!! NNNNNNOOOOOooooooooooooo -- not again! My heart can't take all that anxiety! |
Sweetbabygirl | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 03:51 pm     Baby, I LOVED Jesse and Nicole....I pretty much stopped watching after she got killed. I agree with Llkoolaid though, the best season was the first, with Julie, Bruno, etc...they had the better songs, like High Fidelity, Mannequin, Desdemona. I even tried to do that step that the kids did when the show came on. Oh God, am I a geek! |
Jhezzie | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 04:10 pm     Poor Nicole. I remember when they killed her off in that DWI accident. We were so shocked! I just saw her interviewing about being a child star. She must have amazing genes. She doesn't look a day older. |
Ryn | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 05:18 pm     Its on here now - very much like the 1st shows of AI at the moment. Lots of bad auditions ;) |
Tishala | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 05:19 pm     Never mind Janet Jackson, *I* had a huge crush on Leroy! I wonder what happened to him..... |
Ryn | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 05:21 pm     I tuned in 15 minutes into it so I missed the beginning - I think they show different towns each week to start - this is Miami - she had the sing - then taught them a move - then made cuts. She didn't badmouth people a la American idol. She seems to be the only judge. |
Texannie | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 05:27 pm     I am loving it!!!! |
Yuhuru | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 05:33 pm     I'm really liking Debbie Allen |
Mak1 | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 05:44 pm     This looks promising. I love Debbie's sense of humor. She can also give criticism in a way that leaves the person feeling good about themself, and she does not let anyone be a quitter. |
Squaredsc | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 05:45 pm     ok i just turned to it. omg that short guy shaved head guy was breakin it down. i love debbie allen. |
Grannyg | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 05:49 pm     ok the guy in the green shorts really has a lot of courage!! |
Sweetbabygirl | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 06:05 pm     My favorites are Harlemm Lee (Asian guy with the beautiful voice and funky dance moves) Judy Ho (same description) and Ryan (little dude from New York). Debbie Allen has always been cool, she will definitely be the one to make them sweat. One complaint....WHY did Joey Fatone have to introduce Carnie Wilson's 150 weight loss? She looks great, but outside of that she WAS in a famous group, which was Wilson Phillips! |
Mak1 | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 06:14 pm     That bugged me too, SBG, as if her only accomplishment was weight loss, sheeesh. I'm trying hard not to have any faves yet. It's just too early to have my heart broken, lol. The Miami salsa dancer guy reminds me of Ricky Martin. I love this show, especially the energetic dance numbers! |
Puttergirl | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 06:17 pm     I've missed some tonight. Have they explained the elimination process yet? The website doesn't explain it at all. If we are going to have a POLL, we need to know exactly how each week will go. All I know right now is that there are 24 and 6 will perform each week. HELP!!! |
Shakin4aiken | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 06:18 pm     Lol, my son and I thought he looked like Ricky Martin too and we thought the first girl looked like Britney Spears |
Sweetbabygirl | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 06:21 pm     Putt, I believe they will have six people perform, both as solo then as part of a group. After that, the public gets to decide who goes....I'm sure that how it happens. Not feeling Shannon's voice (1st performer) at all....I think it is because she resembles Britney. Why can't you go with you own style, for pete's sake? |
Puttergirl | Wednesday, May 28, 2003 - 06:21 pm     The only other thing I know is this from the website- "You can still apply to be on FAME! If you think you've got the talent to beat any of the current participants on FAME, APPLY NOW to be a "spoiler"! If you are chosen, you could fly to Los Angeles and enter the competition as a Finalist! That's a real twist!! |
