Saturday School: The series premiere of Fillmore! (2002)

 The last time we checked in on Disney's Fillmore!, the studio began enforcing copyrights and episodes we had here were pulled from YouTube.

Since then, Fillmore! is back on the YouTube beat, for however long it lasts.

Anyway, in the opener, "To Mar a Stall", an ambitious student's pride & joy, the renovation of the restrooms at X Middle School, is ruined. Or so it'd appear. Wendie Malick (Just Shoot Me) is heard as Principal Folsom. Fillmore (Orlando Brown, ex-Family Matters) is just getting started.


Wikipedia's page for the series ignores the fact that ABC kept the series around for half a season of all repeats until February 2005, when they brought Even Stevens back from hiatus. I wonder if Disney and creator Scott Gimple would get back together for the series' 20th anniversary.......!

Rating: A.
