appear on Different Strokes?


During the 1980-81 season, Tootie appeared in the first 2 eps of DS that season called Bank Job and Natalie and Blair appeared together in the episode the Older Woman. But Jo didnt appear on DS at all that season. Maybe it was because she didnt know Kimberly?

Don't know. Jo did appear with Arnold (briefly) and Willis on the Facts of Life. In fact, she hung out with Willis the most on the Zaa Zaa Gabor episode.

Nancy M. did appear with Dana Plato in a movie together.

Perhaps Nancy M. was not "All American" enough.

I don't know the exact reason. Probably she didn't know Kimberly very well like the other girls.

I wonder why Charlotte Rae never appeared on Strokes with the girls. Her only guest appearence was several years after her departure

You're right about that: CHARLOTTE RAE was never seen on DS with the FOL cast (except during the pilot 'The girls school',but she didn't really know them yet):wasntme::wasntme::wasntme::wasntme::wasntme::wasntme::wasntme:

Yeah but TGS was an episode of DS. I would have liked one or two guest appearences, after all, the Drummonds really cared about Mrs. Garrett

Now I may have to buy the DVD because I never remember seeing Jo around Arnold

Thanks Antenna TV cut it out

They cut a lot out. You should really get the DVDs. :)

The reason why I know they cut it out was because I never seen Arnold flirting with tootie before. And I never seen FOL on cable only local tv which is the local syndicated version

so I would have only seen it on cable or the DVD

Yeah, Jo and Kimberly never met on screen. There was no reason for Jo to visit the Drummonds, when she didn't know Kimberly, and only briefly met Willis and Arnold. There just wasn't a strong connection.

Jo hung around Willis the most of all the girls in that Zaa Zaa Gabor episode.

Of course Not alone, but as a group with Natalie and Blair and introduced as "this is our new student Jo" Now tootie appearing alone made more sense because she knew arnold and willis

I'd estimate Willis was on camera for less than four minutes of the episode. He and Jo shot some hoops. There's no indication they formed a strong friendship. Why would Jo visit him in NYC? Just to shoot hoops? Doesn't she know other basketball players in the Bronx?

I can see Jo being invited along, but I can easily see her turning them down. If she's in NYC, she's going to want to catch up with old friends she hasn't seen since she left the Bronx.

Willis did get more airtime than Nancy O. did in Season 1.

What episode is that? Damm I am learning so much

No way that WILLIS had more airtime than NANCY (he only had 4 minutes time on screen on the FOL episode as Retro pointed out) whereas NANCY had a lot more than that, even though she was a 'Wallpaper' by then end of season 1.:wazzup:wazzup:wazzup:wazzup:wazzup:wazzup:wazzup:wazzup:wazzup:wazzup
