More than 40 years after its premiere, The Facts of Life is still giving Us something to talk about.
The sitcom debuted on NBC in August 1979 as a spinoff of Diff’rent Strokes. The Facts of Life aired for nine seasons, becoming one of the longest-running sitcoms of the ’80s.
Before the series came to an end in 1988, the story of boarding school housemother Edna Garrett (Charlotte Rae) was expanded with two TV movies. The Facts of Life Goes to Paris aired in 1982, followed by The Facts of Life Down Under in 1987. A third film, The Facts of Life Reunion, brought together nearly the entire cast in 2001. (Nancy McKeon, who played Jo, was unable to participate at the time due to scheduling.)
