This is meant as more of a follow-up to the strip I expect to see reprinted on Saturday. In case you are not familiar with the Mrs. Beasley doll, here's what she looks like:

At this rate, the only thing that might end this is if Elly gets too bored with having to remember the past to keep things going. (I hope I just didn't give away the ending.)
Actually Mrs. Beasley looks pretty hott compared to Connie. At least she knows how to smile instead of looking miserable.
I once said that Elly would be furious to discover that you could buy a plush Farley or a porcelain April. I'd hate to imagine her reaction if she found out that there was a Connie doll, even if it were masquerading under the name Mrs. Beasley, before an Elly doll.
I thought Mrs. Beasley was a fictional doll that Buffy carried around on Family Affair back in the '60s. Did they make the doll because of the series, or are they just completely unrelated? (And no, I don't know why my head is full of useless junk like that.)

Nope. :)

Good point. Plus she was more pleasant and a better conversationalist. "You can try on my glasses if you like"; "Want to hear a story about when I was a little girl?"

Heh. Yes, she'd be livid. :)

I think they made the doll because of the series. Here you can see a Mrs. Beasley in her original box, complete with a picture of Buffy holding hers and "THE SAME DOLL YOU'VE SEEN ON TV'S 'A FAMILY AFFAIR.'" Curiously, I had a Mrs. Beasley doll before I ever saw the show and was surprised when I did see it and Buffy had a doll just like mine. :)
