View Full Version : Was FOL "Related" To Diff'rent Strokes? POLNICAZEK22 03-19-2001, 08:19 AM Was FOL kinda "related" to Diff'rent Strokes? I think it was..well sorta....because same charchters. I dunno, I just have a feeling ------------------ E-MAIL: LilPerfectRach@Aol.Com RHNSPICE@Aol.Com NAME: RACH panman 03-19-2001, 08:46 AM Mrs.Garret was the Drummond's housekeeper in Diff'rent Strokes. Later, she got a different job as housemother in Eastland Acadamy School for Girls. When that happened she got her own show called The Facts of Life. It wasn't a spin-off of Hello,Larry. It just took it's place on NBC's line up. Devastation26 03-19-2001, 01:13 PM That, plus, cast members made a couple of appearances on each others shows ------------------ Andy: C'Mon Ms. Garrett, throw us a song. Ms. G.: Born in the U.S.S.R. Jo Polniaczec 03-19-2001, 08:06 PM Actually, they are related. The people DS knew the people from FOL and Silver Spoons(Anyone see Arnold Jackson on Silver Spoons last night?) POLNICAZEK22 03-19-2001, 09:25 PM I saw him! He's REALLY cute! ------------------ E-MAIL: LilPerfectRach@Aol.Com RHNSPICE@Aol.Com NAME: RACH TVaddict 03-19-2001, 10:20 PM Yeah, I noticed that too, that was funny. Another thing someone noticed once before was that the music at the end of the later season episodes of Facts of Life was the same as the music for Silver Spoons. That music was driving me crazy because I knew I remembered it from somewhere and I was pretty sure it wasn't from FOL because I hadn't seen it in so long. However a few summers ago I did spend a lot of time watching Silver Spoons. Pretty weird how they literally used the exact same music. Al G 03-19-2001, 11:42 PM What is Silver Spoons? I didn't get a chance to watch it during the whole Revenge of the 80s thing. All I know is it was called Silver Spoons...and according to some commercial, their ratings rose when some dude was shown topless. Devastation26 03-19-2001, 11:56 PM First of all, the two events in the commercial are unrelated. One was like in 85 or 98 the other was in 87. Second, it's a show about, well, here, just go to this site http://www.sitcomsonline.com/silverspoons.html FOL-FAN 03-19-2001, 11:56 PM Originally posted by TVaddict: Yeah, I noticed that too, that was funny.

Now I can sleep. |
