| In this episode the cast makes a trip to Disneyland and experiences many
of the attractions. While riding the Sky-Way buckets, Blossom Russo (played by Mayim
Bialik) and her best friend Six (played by Jenna von Oy) look below them and see
Blossom’s boyfriend kissing another girl. Later, Six tries to comfort Blossom saying
Vinnie (played by David Lascher) couldn’t possibly have done that, "There’s
gotta be some sort of explanation. I mean, Vinnie wouldn’t do this to you. Not here,
not at Disneyland, not at the Happiest Place On Earth!" Immediately the Dapper
Dans enter gleefully singing "For Me and My Gal" in an attempt to cheer her
up. In her present mood, she quickly hushes them, "Oh shut up!" This episode (#57) of Blossom was from the 3rd of 5 seasons. The Dapper Dans’ scene and the entire episode was directed by Bill Bixby (My Favorite Martian, The Courtship of Eddie’s Father, The Incredible Hulk). Blossom originally aired for 5 seasons from July 5, 1990 (pilot) to May 22, 1995. The series is about a high school girl named Blossom Russo, who is very intelligent, morally conscious and somewhat sassy and lives with her father and two brothers. Her best friend Six LeMuere talks so fast most people can't keep up and her boyfriend Vinnie Bonitardi is always trying to be cool. The series dealt with a lot of frank issues that Blossom worked through while remaining true to her values. |
