Him: Do you realize we are watching a Lifetime Original Movie?
Me: But it's starring Nancy McKeon! [Still, always, forever hot for you, Jo.]
Him: I'm sorry, but some kind of line has been crossed. [pause] Let's start going to church.

*Um, just found out via that Wikipedia page that Nancy's brother was Philip McKeon, Linda Lavin's son on Alice. I mean, how did I go thirty-some years without knowing that? They totally look alike, holy crap.
And you totally weren't paying attention in about 1978. The rest of us knew they were siblings.
We knew a good bit about Kristy McNichol, too.

You could you NOT know that! Geez, you must have been as cool as me in the 70s! :) (But in actuality, that was one of the few cultural trivia facts I did know at the time.)

I totally had a butch crush on Nancy McKeon when I was a kid. *Sigh.* I never put it together that Jo and Alice's son were siblings, either.
