The woman who played Gary's Mother to me looked like she was in her late 20's. But in this Child Abuse Commercial i just saw, she looks 73-lol I was like maybe they made her look extra old. It was no way that women was in her 40's when she guest starred on Good Times. Thoughts?

On this commercial, it looked like she was bored in 1922-LOL
TWO DIFFERENT ACTRESSES!
The actress that played Gary's mother in that episode is Saundra Sharp, and for those who watch Knots Landing, she was Nurse Carolee Wilson, the woman who helped to kidnap Valene Ewing's Twins in 1984-1985 season.
I think I know what Child Abuse commercial you're talking about, but that actress in that one was not Saundra Sharp but JANET MACLACHLAN, the simple lady who tried to discourage Florida for taking the bus driver test in Gary Coleman's other Good Times episode.
So, Gary's Mother is Saundra Sharp, and the lady in the Child abuse commercial is Janet MacLachlan.

Oh ok, but I guess they favored each other wich is why I thought of Good Times when I saw the commercial.
