Season 1 Review:
The core “Facts” cast – which also included Kathryn Hahn and Gabrielle Union (as classmates Jo and Tootie) and Ann Dowd stepping in as their housemother Mrs. Garrett – was unimpeachable, with the adult actresses summoning their best teen selves (notably Hahn’s huffy performance as boy-phobic Jo). But it was Aniston who reminded us that her true place is on a situation comedy. ... There was decidedly more there there when it came to the “Diff’rent Strokes” episode, titled “Willis’ Privacy.”

Season 1 Review:
For Facts of Life and Diff’rent Strokes, the onus was on the two casts — and instead of strategizing to pair actors and roles in intended harmony, this was mostly “Wouldn’t it be funny if…” stunt-casting. There were exceptions, starting with Ann Dowd. ... I don’t know if it’s good or bad that however much I enjoyed the two Live in Front of a Studio Audience episodes, I was far more amused by the retro commercials interspersed in the ad breaks.
