Im going to mention this show to some people and see if it can be released by 2022

Great idea! It’s a nice show.

I would buy the show on DVD because the cast appeared on Different Strokes three times. So I am very Familiar with the cast.

Anyway that guy who played on Buffalo Bill played the racist guy on Different strokes when he didnt want his daughter sharing her room with Arnold

Dabney Coleman was very good at playing huge jerks.

Didn't he have some hot daughters when he guest starred in Diff'rent Strokes?

The one who played Diane stopped acting after 1994. The one who played Ruthie appeared on Alice and Dukes of Hazzard in the 80's but was never part of a long running sitcom

Weren’t there two Dianes? I seem to recall a cast change in the second season.
Ruthie was played by Kim Richards, who happens to be the aunt of Paris Hilton.

DVD release? The show was horrendous. Not funny at all partly due to McLean Stevenson thinking he could carry a show and get all of the lines. Terrible writing played a part too. The second season moving away from the radio station and brining in all of the gimmicky characters made it even worse.

Might as well put Supertrain on DVD while you’re at it.

I support Supertrain being on DVD also. Being a short-lived series hasn’t kept other series from making it to DVD.

Yes. One diane was part of 2 Different strokes crossovers and the other Diane was part of one crossover

I’m not against a show being on DVD because it is short lived, it’s more of the fact it was awful, especially Supertrain. It just doesn’t make sense from a business perspective. The only way to market it would be for either die hard fans or those who love bad TV.
