I have just gone through all 24 episodes of the first season of DS.
There were 3 of the things i noticed.
The first thing is that they didn't go outside Mr. Drummonds apparentment until about episode 20. Why did they wait until that long? It really only gets cracking at ep 20 i loved the last 5 or so episodes now i want even more. Even when they are meant to be going out all you saw was them going out the door then coming back in straight away. It was weird that after 20 episodes they decided this.

Also what was the point of the double episode "The Retrospective" It was at episode 8 and 9 what is the point on remembering all the good times when the show had barely even got up and running. i pretty much skipped through these two episodes as i'd just watched them as i went through the dvds in a couple of weeks.

Another thing in the first episodes where they only stay inside the apartment it's more like a play does anyone agree?

I'm new to the boards, and was just wondering if anyone had heard anything about season 2 of Diff'rent Strokes being released. My 8 year old neice just loves the 1st season copy I bought for myself.
Adda :rolleyes:

Gee i couldn't tell you because i watched it last (apart from the DVD of the first series) like 10 years ago when i was under 10. I doubt i watched all the episodes too but i know i really liked it - that's why i bought the dvd. What was yours?
