I remember seeing Dana say it wasn't as bad as it sounds. It is a story with some nudity but not what people made it out to be like this big porn movie with her and other ladies or men.

I felt bad that she had to resort to doing this movie for money, which is why she did it.

I think that if she wasn't on all of those drugs and alcohol back then, she could have made a great come back. I think her reputation got in her way. By today’s standards she would have had her own reality show, she would have been in movies and probably making a great living.

Oh hell yeah, I totally agree. That is why Gary should use what fame he got from DS and use it to his advantage rather than be a bitter man. If you have medical problems, medical bills, debts and other issues that can be helped with some money, then do what you can. Gary appeared on STAR DATES, SURREAL LIFE, etc. so obviously the very thing he hates, he has no problem doing when it comes down to it. He can help alleviate his medical debts by turning lemons into lemonade.

Maybe Gary just can't get it up.....I'm serious, if he is on meds, that could affect uh, things....and maybe that is why he has never tried anything sexually.

I guess that could be why Jude. Never thought of that. Meds can affect one in many ways, especially a man.

I wonder if Gary just has the mentality of a young boy. You know, the Peter Pan syndrome. He has always been looked upon as a child, so he never mentally got out of that.

I loved how he was in an episode of MARTIN. It was funny but for once, I didn't see Gary as this young boy.

He played a mobster on 227 who was hitting on Sandra

And about that other issue, there are little pills that could help with that problem. Gary just has some mental issues

Actually in the last few episodes of DS, I stopped seeing him as a child and more as the young adult he actually was.
