I wonder what was behind Arnold having PHONE ONLY SCENES in the ep when Kimberly went skiing-lol

Similar to Chrissy Snow on Three's Company. Wonder why Gary Coleman would be featured that way

I would think kidney problems means NO appearance at all, not phone scenes

MikeLutton · 04-10-2008, 07:15 PM

He did talk to Mr. Drummond on the phone and Willis. Maybe you saw a different ep

MikeLutton · 04-10-2008, 07:26 PM

So what was the deal with him just having two brief scenes again in the Drummond Has Korean Son episode? Just what was going on? Was Gary on a contract dispute or was he ill? Notice the other episode had Tootie again--and she is annoying on DS!

She actually made me laugh today

TootIe: So why is the Guy Suing you Mr. drummond

Mr. Drummond: because i gave him a raise

Tootie: Oh thanks, that makes sense

LOL

The reason why we saw those short scene with Gary Coleman was most likely due to his contract issues with the show. Chances are that after he came to terms with the producers, they filmed him in the studio and added his tag scenes in the non Tootie episodes for the beginning of that season to make it seem that his presence was there. They needed an element for each episode that would have been either Arnold or Tootie.

Plus, I think that his tag scene were filmed all in one or maybe two days. I think that they put him on a swing set and gave him his lines as he was on camera and taped him. He probably had his little script and performed.

i'm not sure why gary was fighting with NBC for more money when the show was never in the top 10

ThomasE · 04-13-2008, 02:33 PM

Still, there was a big fan base with the show and the show did have respectable ratings. I think his parents had a lot to do with it as well.

What were NBC's biggest hits at the time?
