She dida lot of crossover episodes wit different strokes and it was one i particular when she agreed to be arnold's date and arnold went to the bank and two guys robbed the bank-Do you remember that episode? JethroSimpson 08-23-2002, 07:53 AM I think it was the episode "The Rivals" that she was supoed to play the part of Lurleen. She was in that episode you mentioned "The Bank Job" as Arnold's date, and then in late season 3/ early season 4 she returned when Gary Coleman was on strike to take over his part. tvje 08-23-2002, 07:56 PM Oh I remember that JethroSimpson. That is the afformative action episode when Drummand gets sued because of afformative action and Willis is off the baskterball team because of afformative action and hires the lawyer who is suing Drummand. In that episode Arnold is in the penthouse but never seen and writing letters to Tootie for some reason. And Kim Fields had alot of Gary Coleman's lines. They poorly explained Arnold's absent.

Oh so that's what happen? I always wonder where arnold was when tootie was taking his place-i thought it was medical issues Brian Damage 08-27-2002, 05:09 PM Gary was off the show a couple of times for various reasons. Obviously for medical reasons and also because he was looking for more money. |
