During isabel sanford apperance on the Tony orlando and dawn show, Tony says to isabel sanford-"You remind of Esther Rolle". Now Esther Rolle and Isabel sanford were two of my favorite actors but they did not look anything alike. Yes they were both dark skin and chunky but they ddi not resemble each other at all in my opinion. I also remember Isabel saying on a reunion show in 1991 that everyone thinks she is esther rolle-lol I have no idea why

Well, you know they have rehearsals and of course he met her PRIOR to the show. It was all set-up. Just like the show where they had Freddie pretend to be Tony. IT'S ENT-TER-TAINMENT. :lol:
