FOR GARY COLEMAN on that Inside TVLand special??????? I mean, I can maybe see two white people making that dumb-ass mistake, but those two black guys?????? C'mon...that was stupid. I thought they were at first trying to figure out the name George Jefferson, but when they said "Say that saying, Whatchutalkinabout" my jaw dropped.

I think that part of the show is scripted.

Yes I was. I remember watching that show over my mother's house last weekend I believe.

No way was two guys asking Sherman to say the Diffrent Strokes phrase was scripted. If It was Gary Coleman, then I would say yes

Being black doesn't make you a Jeffersons fan by default - LOL. But, since The Jeffersons is such a big part of pop culture I was surprised they didn't know who he was.

True. But since they knew Gary Coleman, how could they not know Sherman Hemsley????

PLEASE!! Those men knew good and well that Sherman was not Gary. And they just so happen to have a camara, two big men walking around with a carama.

I think that it's scripted, did you see the Adam West episode???? You can't tell me that Living in TV Land isn't scripted.

Ireneparalegal · 05-10-2006, 12:49 AM

Could be. who knows. But still, why would they have them say Gary Coleman? that's an insult, IMO, to Sherman.

they were in the Farmers Market area of the valley and that place is swarming with celebs. it isn't unusual for Californians to carry around digital cameras knowing they may run into celebs, especially here in Southern California.
