I could've sworn when these charactors showed up on Diffret Strokes Kimberly was trying to talk Daddy into sending her to this school. Well,where is she?Or was Dana Plato already showing signs of being a problem child by then?

Kimberly went to Eastland School for the first 99 episodes of Diff'rent Strokes, although she was never seen on Facts Of Life.

In episode 100 she asked to be transferred to public school.

Tootie appeared in Diff'rent Strokes 6 times, Natalie and Blair guest appeared.

She did appear in episode 1, rough housing.

I forgot about that one.

I saw two years ago a show about child stars, and Johnny Whitaker said that Dana Plato's boyfriend (or boyfiend) did dope her up right before she died, while her BF denied everything. Anyone know about that?

Dana Plato died of an drug overdose. That is so sad:(

I know she died of a drug overdose, but does anyone know if her boyfriend had anything to do with it?

There is significant evidence that says yes, but it was never fully investigated and he's never been charged with anything. This is really off-topic though, go to the Diff'rent Strokes board and read the posts there.

Hey Tad.. *pst*

If you wanna know more about what happened to Dana, keep checking E!'s website for the "True Hollywood Story: Dana Plato"... it explains everything about what happened. Quite interesting info, too.
