Since nobody has been posting here recently I thought I'd start a fresh topic about which character is your favourite and your reasons why.

My favourite character is Willis probably because I can associate with him the most, my other favourite is also Kimberly.

I've noticed the same thing...I don't want this board to become like the 'My Favorite Martian' board. That board is a graveyard. MFM is quite a rare show as it is, but since its not even on tvland anymore- it just makes it even more rare. We can't let that happen to this board.

In answer to your question, I would say my favorite character is Kimberly. We seem to have a lot in common, so she is one that I relate too most. My second favorite character is Arnold. Gary Coleman was a great comedic actor. It's too bad he got typecast with his famous quote. If someone would give him a chance, I'm sure the comedic flair would just fly through the tv.

My favourites are Willis and Kimberly. And Mrs Garret, too.

Mrs. Garrett has to be one of my favorite characters because I like the how she bonds with the Drummonds' and sometimes she can be a bit like a slapstick comedian on the show, and even sometimes she plays along with the kids if they are imagining and pretending ex. Arnold and his Tent, and sometimes in a responsible manner. She even helps them along the way, athough she wasn't on the series very long a thought she brought a lot to the show. But I liked Arnold as much as Mrs. Garrett because Gary has a strong sense of humor on the show.

Arnold was my all time favorite. He was always so happy go lucky that it always brought a smile to my face. :)

Willis
i don't know i just love him.
He reminds me of my brothers

And the way he is so full of Himself.:eek:

Arnold is my favorite Charter because he makes me Laught

Take Care and God Bless

ok, of the original cast, I loved Arnold! I thoght he was just so adorable!! And, I knw a lot of people hated her, but I loved Maggie! I'm not saying that just because I am a dixie carter fan. I think Maggie provided a kind of evening out between 4 men/boys and 2 women in the apartment, ya know?

Arnold

Kimberly was my favorite.
And Mrs. Garrett was my favorite, too.

well it's close VERY close but i'd have to say Arnold so funny always making jokes!. :lol:

mines has to be arnold, followed by mr drummond and mrs garrett. arnold was my favourite- he was just so funny and some of the lines he had were just hilarious. plus he made such a cute looking sitcom kid with those chubby cheeks of his! :lol:

Kathy Gordon, played by melanie Bernhardt, that is why I have her picture as my aviatar.

I am short like her, and I used to be in a wheel chair at one time in my life. So I would have alot in common with her.

Mrs. Garrette was funny has heck.

Also the old lady adilay(spelling) she was pretty funny herself too.

The ones I didn't like were Sam, Robbie, Maggie.

i also like that episode with kathy in it- it was a good one. its great that arnold has a friend like her, despite her disability, she was really enjoyable to watch :)

you can tell its slow when people bump up 5 year old threads :lol:

Anyway, Kimberly...only cause I thought she was the cutest girl on Earth, at the time! :blush: :lol: (It's so sad that the rest of the actress' short life was so messed up!:( )

yeah, its a shame that not many people are posting many threads on the show, particuarly as its already released on dvd, well in the US that is and that episodes are being posted on you tube

Willis, because I found it very realistic in its initial distrust of whites live with and then as a character I think is very realistic.

Arnold is very nice

Kimberly is very beautiful and very realistic as Willis as a teenager.

Me its simple Adelaide Brubaker.I just love her and I loved the actress that played her Nedra Volz. She was very funny and sweet.Loved her in Diff'rent Strokes,The Dukes of Hazzard and in the movie Moving Violations.
My other favorite of course was Arnold. Arnold never failed to make me laugh even today. Every time he said that famous word I laugh. its just a petty that I cant have the whole series on DVD. Think's a lot Sony.

Kimberly is my favorite. I did not see the show growing up. I don't know how I found out about Dana Plato. I have been interested in DS and Dana since.
Wish all seasons were on DVD.

May Dana be at peace.

I totally agree with you Bebe. While I enjoyed the original cast I was cool with them bringing in Maggie and Sam. It opened up many more storylines and gave Mr. D a permanent love interest. He seemed even happier.
