I got a tape today with the True E hollywood stories of Facts Of Life, DS and Dana Plato.

I watched the FOL one and really enjoyed it but after around 30 mins of the DS one I stopped watching.
While the fol documentry spent virtually all the time talking about the show, after about 20 mins of the DS one they were just talking about all the bad things that happaned to the castmembers, which I think is boaring to her all the bad things over and over, why couldn't they have cloased in on some of the more posative points for a change?

Does anyone else who has seen it agree?

I agree! It just focused on all the negatives and hardly any positives. Also they spent around 30 minutes talking about Gary Coleman, 20 talking about Todd Bridges and 10 about Dana Plato. It wasn't really about the show it was just about the kids of the show. I had really hoped it would have been better.

P.S. The Dana Plato documentary was good but sad.:(

I haven't seen the E True Hollywood DS tape for the very reason that you're talking about. It's a shame that a good show that went on for several years would be lost in the sensationalism of the troubles that the cast fell into. Someone began to tell me about that show once and after enough words were spoken to give me the gist of the content I told them to please nevermind, no thanks, don't need to hear it. The program sounds to be of the quality of "The National Enquirer".
