"Dear Diary, I'm sorry for all those hateful racist things I said about you. Everything's changed; I'm in love... something you would never understand you dirty, dirty, dirty Jew diary. Just kidding, just kidding. Jerri Blank."

 !!!Orlando Pinatubo: You should run for homecoming queen, Jerri. Jerri Blank: What? Are you joking? I don't think I'm what the boys consider a traditional beauty. Orlando Pinatubo: In my country, you'd be a real queen. Jerri Blank: Yeah, well, that's cause your country's ruled by monkeys. Orlando Pinatubo: Jerri, that's an ugly thing to say. Jerri Blank: Geez, why are you people so sensitive about your resemblance to monkeys? They're adorable. |

Also, the seasons are being re-released on DVD in a box set with a ton of extra features - mostly what's already on the season DVD's, but some extra stuff too - for example, The Trip Back, the documentary about Florrie Fisher, who would go around to high schools and yell at students about her drug problem in the 60's.
Jerri Blank: "You can be rich in family, or friends, or love, but the only thing that matters is being rich in money. One last thing: the poor are a filthy, thieving people. Night!" |

"Packing a Musket"
by Jerri Blank When you work from your home and johns call on the phone you're a call girl. When you walk til you limp and give a cut to a pimp you're a street whore. When they're beggin' you "please" to get down on your knees near their groinage Excusa me, but you see, don't you touch where they pee without coinage When I straddle and squat to show you my twat. . . |

Good God! I loved this show! So glad to see I'm not alone.
I will be there on June 28th, sporting my Indian underwear. From what little advance info there is out yet, there has been good buzz. Dan Hedaya (played the dad in Clueless) is taking over the role of Daddy for the film, and her stepbrother has also been recast. Stu will be there too! |

I love that episode! I don't remember the wording, but I do remember at one point she says that she's going to make "flutes from your bones" to the Pilgrim Girl.
Also, Geoffrey's enthusiasm for it at the beginning of the episode: "It's time for our bi-annual Thanksgiving Turkey pageant, gobble gobble!" I'm also a fan of Jimmy Tickles: "I'm SO not jazzed." |

Oh god this was/is MY show.
I think Feather in a Storm is my favorite episode -- with that one song running throughout the show. The race to the cafeteria with "fatty" cracked me up, they ran out of breath after 5 steps. I loved how Suki baked herself so that Jerri may live...and when everyone went to reach for a piece of the chicken there was also a reaching hand with a handicap hook on it...lol. Oh, and when the whole family arrives (to console Jerri after fainting from her bulemia) the mom blurts out -- "We came as soon as we felt like it" Dreams on the Rocks was also pretty funny. I liked when Jerri comes home and finds her mother passed out drunk and Jerri says -- she must fallen and hit her head on this...shot glass. Oh and the curtains and rod spinning around in the garbage disposal...lol. Anyway. I am really let down that they recast the part of Derek (Frankenfag!) -- I actually found him kind of sexy. Come to think of it, a lot of the guys on this show were kinda hot. I have a morbid fascination with the guy that sniffs Jerri's toe seperator. Oh and blind guy was nice. Thankfully her mother is returning, that actress is great. "I cried when I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet. Then I laughed... really hard." Jerri Blank |

Pencake, that whole episode was up on youtube a week or two ago, it was great. I loved when she told Orlando he couldn't be a pilgrim because they had "lily white skin to match their christian souls" I really want to see the movie. Badly.

The reason that Derek was recast was because he's older now, and doesn't look as young, especially when compared to Amy Sedaris.
The only original teen castmate returning is Maria Thyer, aka Tammy Littlenut, that little redheaded spit fire. |

Damn, Derek was hot. :(
Even Orlando was recast? As Jerri would say (and what I always quote): Sad. fave guest character: Jimmy, the blind hotness. Wow. Winona Ryder was a close 2nd. :) |

Youtube!? I missed it, nooooo!!!
Derek was always naked too. My fav ep is the one with the baby. Freaking hilarious! Remember how she made a toy for it out of a sharp metal can? The scene with Jerri renting a Motel with Tammy still makes me laugh. "The carpet matches the drapes." |

I'm the same way. I've got all three seasons, but they're kind of worn, so I need the box set! You can find out information about it at tvshowsondvd.com, and it looks pretty sweet - it's a trapper keeper.
Also, I don't know if Orlando has been recast, but I don't think that his character is even in it. Also, the baby episode is one of my favorites. "Pee on me!" |

SubLime, "We came as soon as we felt like it" is my favorite line of all time! LOVE that episode.
The girl she is competing against for the slot on the debate team, Lizzy, is Ellen Pompeo, now seen on Grey's Anatomy. |

More great quotes:
JERRI: "I cried when I had no shoes, and then I met a man who had no feet and I laughed...really hard" JERRI: "Stepmother, where did you get this mysterious box I've had ever since I was a baby?" STEPMOM: "I stumbled across it while I was looking for it in your room." STEPMOM: "That's right Jerri, you're a full blooded aramapoo Indian" JERRI: "I'm not an Indian! It's just a coincidence I have a love for gambling and booze and a knack for catching syphillus." (Jerri wheels in a disabled boy in a wheelchair because she is trying to get votes for homecoming court) ORLANDO: Jerri what are you doing with that disabled boy? JERRI: I'm putting on a circus for him to lift his spirits. ORLANDO: Why aren't you in the hospital? JERRI: Because no one would see me. ORLANDO: What do you mean Jerri? JERRI: If a tree falls in the middle of the woods and there's no one there to hear it, does it become home coming queen? |
