I know it's very short notice but the E! True Hollywood Story of Diff'rent Strokes is on tonight (Thursday) at 8PM

Yea it was...personally i didnt think it was that good. I wanted more about the show, before the first commercial they were already in 1982, It was to much about the cast kids, i liked them, but they could have been 3 people that never met and had the same problems. It was totally off of Diff'rent Strokes after the first few commercials. and Garys parents dont seem like the parents i read. they seemed like decent nice people. the whole segment just turned me off. I liked what i saw but not what i wanted.

When I saw Gary's dad being interviewed before I thought he seemed like a total weirdo. And I don't think it's right for any parents to erase all memories of their child or children from their house like they did.

well ive heard so many diff'rent things i really dont know what is true and what isnt..... People make Garys life sound terrible but from what i viewed it looks like he just had a few setbacks but he kept going

I have a question abotu that, Was Charlotte Rae in it much? What'd she say? lol..I'm obsessed, sooo dont' mind me, but I just would like to know what she said.

I think she was just basically talking about how Gary was the real success or "meal ticket" of the show.

Thank you thank you thank you....lol! I woulda loved to have seen it though...oh well, maybe next time!!
