The Creepy Bicycle Man episode along with the one where Sam got kidnapped made this list of Very Special "Very Special" episodes (http://www.mentalfloss.com/article/49456/12-very-special-very-special-episodes). (I'd forgotten about that "Monroe gets attacked by two women" ep of Too Close for Comfort....) :gary: :crazy:

Gordon Jump's character was the sitcom version of Jerry Sandusky:
A “very special” Diff’rent Strokes that’s terrifying for all the wrong reasons (http://www.avclub.com/articles/a-very-special-diffrent-strokes-thats-terrifying-f,101869/?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=SocialMarketing&utm_campaign=LinkPreview:1:Default)

Diff'rent Strokes had another memorable two-parter in which Kimberly and Arnold go out shopping for Drummond's birthday and decide to hitchhike back home not knowing that the nice fellow that picks them up is a bit of a wacko who comes on strong to Kimberly.

Another episode is when Arnold and Sam discover their friend who is a street performer suffers from seizures.

This 2-parter was just aired over the weekend and I hadn't seen it in a long time that I totally can see how Gordon Jump's character comes off as a creepy lonely guy masked by a gentle kind face by giving gifts to Arnold and free treats to Arnold and Dudley.

I had forgotten how hysterical seeing Arnold and Dudley freaking out at the nudie mag and cartoons, also noticed that one of the comic books Dudley picks up is clearly a Superman comic but with stickers covering up the front cover I guess the show's producers didn't need to pay for licensing.

Shavar Ross had suffered a real-life drama of that by a friend of his family.

it happened about the same time that he and Gary were taping the 2-part episode.

He was assaulted while he was sleeping. :eek:

Gay has nothing to do with it. The bicycle man was a pedophile.

Those are the ones that can't distinguish acting from real-life. :rolleyes:

You're right!

He was a stone-cold pedophile / child molester. :eek:

The guy was just getting paid to PLAY the part.

In real life, he was not gay, nor was he a pedophile.

Distinguish the two before you decide to accuse someone, in this case an actor, of being gay or a pedophile :mad:

Where in that post did Neutronman accuse Gordon Jump of being gay or a pedophile? He referred to the character, not the actor.

Sorry.

Thought that he meant in real life.

Deleted it.
