    Oh my Joanie is such an angel.

    This episode was worth watching. At the begining Potsy sings to Joanie. And she looks so sweet. I wish I could sing. I would sing to Joanie every day. Other than that Lori Beth and Richie have an arguement. And that almost get Ritchie beat up by a very big man.
