Damon Evans_lol Had no idea the 2nd Lionel would be on the show tonight. That was defintely a shock. But I enjoyed it, it's a shame it was only an half hour.

I was going to post about that, LOL. No, I didn't expect to see him! I didn't know who he was at first! I saw Clifton Davis, and I was looking at the guy next to him, and I was saying, "Who the hell is that?" Until I heard him talk. That's when I recognized him. He has obviously aged, but he still looks the same. I thought the surprise behind the door was going to be Mike Evans, the first Lionel. That would have been the bigger surprise. It was good to see everybody in the room asscociated with Sherman Helmsley. That little reunion would have been nice to do at let's say at a TVLand awards ceremony.

I'm just mad it wasn't long enough, TV LAND shows too many f*cking commercials. Damm they get on my nerves

I loved it! You were right Solomon, it should've been a little bit longer, I really enjoyed watching Sherman and his everyday life. The only thing I would say, is he can't sing a lick. lol

He never could, didn't he sing once on TJ?

Sherman looked really good. His looks hasn't changed a bit. He seems like a really nice person. It was funny when he was telling the story about the child calling him George Jefferson and his mother corrected him telling her son his name is not George Jefferson his name is Herman Shelmsley

I wish it would have been longer too. I couldn't believe it when that one guy he met on the street thought he was Arnold from Diff'rent Strokes.

Some people don't watch enough TV.

I missed the first 5 minutes. Did they mention how he and Stanley Livingston(Chip from My Three Sons) became friends? I noticed him at the dinner table.

It was great seeing the cast members from Sherman's old shows together. It was a nice touch to have Isabel Sanford, Roxie Roker and Franklin Cover's photos in the background.

I have to watch it again because I didn't notice the photos in the background. Also, Sally Struthers needs to LOCK THE FRIDGE-LOL

She looked horrible. She did not age well.

You can see the photos behind Sherman and Marla when they are eating. I believe there was also a photo of Isabel Sanford behind Sherman when he was using his computer.

That was a very good show. It's great to see Sherman enjoying himself in his old age. I just might head out to L.A. and try to meet him one day. I was pleased to see Damon Evans, Berlinda Tolbert and Ned Wertimer there. I was suprised they showed up! I knew Marla Gibbs would be there. Does anyone think that Berlinda Tolbert (Jenny) looked a bit like "Scary Spice" of the Spice Girls? I only wish that Paul Benedict and Mike Evans had shown up as well. The pictures of Isabel, Franklin and Roxie were nice, but where was a picture of Zara Cully?

I'm thinking it was because she passed away early in the series
