I will be watching The Diff'rent Strokes Biogrphy on Bio on April 1, 2009

it on now

Glad to see DS is still thought of but I think it was pointless to even make that biography. There was really nothing to it. Same old story. Outside of Fred Silverman none of the people talking were even associated with that show. Definitely was something that was thrown together.

Something came up and I Missed it will they being replaying the episode at 9:00 pm and 1:00 am CT Time.

Well thank God for that because I thought we had the biography channel on our satellite dish (we have Directv) but when I tried to watch it, it said that the channel had not been purchased or some crap like that. I figured that it would be the same old story we've heard many times before but since this was supposedly new and just-made, I wasn't so sure (thought maybe there would at least be something new). Glad to know I didn't miss anything big :) .

Yeah same crap which I figured what would happen. Nothing about the show itself and the same sh*t we saw on True Hollywood Story

I'm out of the loop! I just caught a little of it on A&E last Sat. morn. Anyone know if it will be repeated (again?)

Maybe if we bad mouth it more they will put on more shows about DS. Remember Dana this May 8th.

I finally saw it and I can see two problems with it.

#1 - Fred Silveman seems to have forgotten that Facts Of Life wasn't an immediate success.

#2 - The narrorator stated that ABC kept Diff'rent Strokes alive for the 84-85 season. The show was still on NBC then. It didn't move to ABC until the 85-86 season.
