Do any of you remember Eddie's friend Weasel who was a charachter in Season 4 and Season 5? Does anyone know why they got rid of him? I think he was a good charachter, and they should have given him more of a chance to evolve, like they did with Waldo and Urkel. I thought he was rather funny, and sort of livened things up.

If I remember correctly wasn't that the same guy who played Duddley on Different Strokes? I agree with you they should have developed him more! It would make more sense for Eddie to have a sidekick named Weasel than Waldo!

I talked to Shavar Ross via e-mail about why his character was discontinued. He said he thought he was gonna continue in his contract but they terminated it early(The Producers of the Show)

I heard he was a minister now, is that true?

Yeah he used to be a minister but now he and his wife are producers of some new cable channel. He was on VH1 earlier this year on this show called Where are they now: Child Stars.

Yes he did play Arnolds best friend Dudley Ramsey.
