Okay, get ready for some nostalgia from the 80s! Let's dive into a cool episode of "Facts of Life" from season 7, way back in 1985. This episode is called "Men for All Seasons," and it's a real treat for fans of the show.

In this particular episode, the gang of girls at Langley College is facing some resistance from the school. Why, you ask? Well, they've come up with a plan to sell a pinup poster featuring the college's swim team, and the school is not too happy about it. Sounds like quite the dilemma, right?

Now, here's the thing—the star of this episode isn't just the story itself, but also a delicious treat from the 80s. In a scene near the beginning of the episode, Jo, one of the main characters, can be seen nursing a Jello Pudding Pop. Can you believe it? An iconic snack from the 80s making an appearance on an iconic TV show from the same era. It's like a double dose of awesomeness!

This episode is especially great for Natalie fans, as she has a significant role in it. But the Jello Pudding Pop steals the spotlight, adding an extra layer of charm to the whole experience. It's moments like these that bring back memories and make us appreciate the fun and quirky aspects of the 80s.

So, if you're into 80s nostalgia or just curious about what made this era so memorable, "Facts of Life" season 7's "Men for All Seasons" episode is definitely worth checking out. It's a delightful mix of drama, humor, and of course, some sweet Jello Pudding Pop goodness. It's like two icons from the 80s coming together to create a truly unforgettable experience. Who could ask for anything more?

Remember when Mickey Mouse decided to commit suicide?
Unless you lived in the 1930s or are a fan of vintage comic strips you might not be aware of the attempted Mickey Mouse suicide.
