From the website where I found the Match Game picture...walking sticks, huh?:
"pdated: 7/10/06
Name: Susan Richardson
Born: March 11, 1952 in Coatesville, Pennsylvania
Claim To Fame: Susan is best noted for her role as Susan Bradfor on the TV show "Eight is Enough".
Family Life: Daughter, Sarah, born March 27, 1980.
Info: No info available.
Trivia: Susan has had a bizarre life. She gained about 90 pounds with her pregnancy, and then turned to cocaine to help her lose the weight because she feared being fired.
In 1999, she suffered a nervous breakdown, and was hospitalized and placed on suicide watch.
Probably the most bizarre story surrounding her is her claim that in the 1980s, she was held hostage in Korea by filmmakers who tried to kill her.
There was no proof and she says that the disbelief of others in Hollywood is what ruined her career because she could not find work.
It is more likely that her acting career went town the tubes because of her bizarre behavior. She was on numerous talk shows in which this behavior was evident to everyone.
Where Is She Now: After many battles with addiction, she looks to have put those demons to rest.
She is living in Wagontown, Pennsylvania where it is reported that she is a caretaker at a retirement home. In her spare time she makes walking sticks for Veterans and the disabled."
I seem to remember her also frequently rocking the knee-high moccasins with the jeans tucked in which accented the bangs so beautifully....but my memory could be embellishing.

I always thought Elizabeth was the prettiest Bradford girl. She reminded me of Valerie Bertinelli.
doodle, that's the exact same website where I found the info! LOL!
and yeah, Elizabeth was the prettiest one.

Nancy was the one who you were supposed to think was the prettiest one, though. Remember when her beauty pageant talent was setting her hair in rollers to music?
And for more crazy about Susan, check out the link!
Oh, Susan
OH Geez! The writing in that article made my stomach hurt!
She thinks Angelina Jolie should play her?

Just like we were supposed to automatically accept Blaire as the most beautiful girl at Eastland. She was really, really pretty (that hair!) but I thought that boy-crazy Nancy (Felice Schacter) had her beat. She was in the really early episodes with Molly Ringwald. She had brown hair, blue eyes and was very Morgan Brittany-ish.
Yeah, I remember her, blueroses!
Of course...she had the Brittney patented brown hair with blue eyes and lip glossed lips look.
Here she is more recently:
Awww...a side by side comparison:
Aww...they're both adorable.

How recent was that pic, because she was on the documenatary for the season one Facts of Life dvd and she didn't look nearly as glossy? And Mindy Cohn was REALLY bitter that Felice didn't move on as a regular.
She was Nancy to Lisa Welchel's Tonya.

HA!
I don't think that's the greatest pic of Felice. There, she looks a bit older, and more Brooke Shields-y than Morgan Brittany-y.

She looks better in that pic than she did on the dvd! Just sayin', no hatin'!
Remember her from Zapped!?
This thread and the Kristen Chenoworth thread have been totally hijacked! LOL!!!
Who was the blonde one from season 1 who--gasp!--smoked pot and then had to do a book report on MOBY DICK?

Of course! I LOVED Zapped! I have a soft spot for Zapped in the way I do for Midnight Madness, The Best Little Girl in the World and The Last American Virgin.

Borstal...Sue Ann (or Suzanne)? I remember that Helen Hunt--who was pretty and not all squinty and Ellen Barkinish back then--was one of the pot smokers. And Natalie and Tootie bought a bong for Edna (probably from Spencer Gifts).

That would be Sue Ann, Borstalboy.

And remember Blair had that empty lipstick for storing joints? She told Mr. Bradley it was for "mad money."
Oh, and Sue Ann was a terrible actress. She's even more painful to watch than Mindy Cohn was back then!
Is this the culprit?
Mmmm...Steve Antin in LAST AMERICAN VIRGIN. He's gay, y'know.

Yes! The principal was kind of cute, wasn't he?
