The Longshoremen at Sea World Orlando!
Margaret Hamilton!
Margaret Hamilton was the original actress cast to play Marie Thornwell in this episode. She had to drop out last-minute due to health issues. So last minute, in fact, that advertisements had already been created and ran in TV Guide and other publications with her image. (Thanks to Andrew W on the Facts Of Life Fans FB Page for posting this! I remember seeing this in TV Guide!)
Here are some of her commercials which were running around the same time.
The Oldest Living Graduate!
It turns out “The Oldest Living Graduate” is a play, and the TV movie I mentioned on this episode was an NBC live broadcast of a stage production. (Think “Little Mermaid Live” but without the music, joy, or appeal.) Henry Fonda starred along with … future “Facts Of Life” star Cloris Leachman! Who knew!?
Here are the TV production credits on IMDb. Here is info on the play on Wikipedia.
