^ Hello Mallory would have been a great episode, with all the angst and awkwardness. But maybe they didn't want to do it because the sitters on the show are a lot more sympathetic.

Or Mallory and the Trouble with Twins would have been a great episode.

Mallory and Jessi were already besties and pretty much added to the club by the end of season one. That was really the whole point of Hello, Mallory. I think Poor Mallory could have been good, too. She had some good books in the beginning.

Sorry to double post. Did we know about this? This year's daytime Emmy awards: Sophie Grace won an Emmy for Younger Performer in a Children's Program for her role as Kristy. The show was nominated for 7 awards. The daytime Emmys are such a nonentity that I'm not sure if they're even televised anymore, but good for her! Also, the show has an Instagram page with a few pictures from season two posted. You see a lot of sweaters and fall weather type clothes, but nothing spoilery.

If there was going to be a Mallory episode, the one I would've picked for her would be Mallory and the Mystery Diary.

Mystery Diary is one of my favorite Mallory books. That would have been a lot of fun to see on screen.
I don't really pay attention to award stuff so I didn't know, but winning an Emmy is pretty sweet! I loved her portrayal of Kristy so I'm really happy for her.

I wouldn't necessarily want to see the mystery diary one because I didn't like how the Barretts were portrayed in Dawn and the Impossible Three. I don't need to see that mother again.

What was the issue with how she was portrayed in the episode? If she was that bad, perhaps showing her doing a bit better would be an improvement over her previous appearance.

I didn't like the way they did Mrs. Barrett on the show. In the book, Mrs. Barrett is overwhelmed and just trying to survive. (I'm much more sympathetic to her now than I was as a younger reader). On the show she had a convo with Dawn and just talked over her, so she seemed disinterested instead of stretched too thin.
If they do Mystery Diary, it could be fun to see another kid instead of Buddy. We already know Shea has dyslexia and I want to see the Rodowskys.

You can scan through that episode thread. Nobody appears to have liked her character. She was turned into a self absorbed aspiring actress.

Like others I'm puzzled by the omission of a Mallory episodes. I would have loved to see Mallory and the Trouble with Twins. And Kristy and the Baby Parade is an odd choice, but I think the Emily Michelle theory may be correct (but Kristy and the Mother's Day Surprise would have been fun to see as an episode!)
Oh well. I'm sure I'll enjoy the new season nonetheless!

^ What's the Emily Michelle theory? I admit I hadn't thought of her at all, but she was in the baby parade so I'm guessing she will appear this season.

^Someone suggested that they may combine the Mothers’s Day story of with getting Emily Michelle with the Baby Parade story.
