Lisa Whelchel Butchers 'Facts OF Life' Theme [Watch]: 'Survivor' Contestant Remembers Co-Star George Clooney [Video]
Though the TV series, Facts of Life, was cancelled in the '80s, viewers fondly remember their favorite sitcom. Lisa Welchel sings the beloved theme song while dishing out some behind-the-scenes tidbits about fellow co-star, George Clooney.
On the hit NBC series, the ex-Survivor contestant played the spoiled rich girl, Blair Warner. Audiences watched the blonde starlet grow up from being to a 14-year-old spunky teen to adult actress. In the series finale, Blair saves the finally troubled Eastland Academy and donates money from her own pocket.
In the video, the Different Strokes guest star recites a few verses from the Facts of Life. If you remember the catchy lyrics, see if you can follow along and sing, "You take the good, you take the bad..."
During her nine year stay on the popular TV show, the starlet dishes on meeting the Oscar winner on set. Viewers recall the Gravity movie star as the hunky contractor George Burnett and his mullet. Burnett had to do some construction but always had time to flirt with his fellow female cast mates.
Was there sparks between Warner and Burnett off-screen? Welchel spills, "I don't know, maybe I was just not smart, or not thinking ahead, because I did not anticipate what he would grow into." The Love Boat actress adds, "I think if I had, I would've worn makeup to rehearsal a little bit more often."
Who knew Clooney would then end up on ER and now become engaged to Amal Alamuddin?
