What will Todd Bridges tell us that he hasn't already told us on the Today Show about his past life and his road to recovery?

Unless he's going to reveal something that might be painfully true about Gary Coleman.

I will be tuned in in 2 hours

Larenz09 · 06-02-2010, 05:19 PM

What show / network?

Oh, never mind, it's ET.

Yeah Entertainment Tonight... I hope its a few minute thing and not just something real quick.

I am kinda in shock Larry King didnt do something. Joy Behar had Shavar Ross on for about 15 minutes.

he brought up allot of nice things, it wasn't that bad kinda stuff on the set, but then he also saw Gary at 13 years old fire people off the set!

Larenz09 · 06-02-2010, 10:06 PM

It airs here tomorrow on WSBK Channel 38.

I'm going to record it. This one looks like a tear jerker, so have the Kleenex on hand because Todd breaks his silence, but he also cries over the loss of Gary Coleman.

I missed it. Did anyone here get to see it?

According to 'many sources', Coleman deliberately "broke off all communication with the cast members from the show" about fifteen years ago. He wanted no associaltion with 'Diff'rent Strokes' thinking it was hampering his career moving forward.

So if Bridges has had no contact with him for fifteen years, what can he possibly have to say to set the record straight (or however he wroded that)?

I'm almost positive that before too long, you'll be able to see it on YouTube.com. Look how quickly Gary's lashing back on insider came to YouTube.

I'm going to set up a recording for it tonight. I'll watch it later in the evening and give you my thoughts on it.

Comes on tonight at 7 or 7:30.

It comes on tonight at 7pm. I tuned it to watch it last night because of a certain poster on this board

Well, 11 years ago, Gary and Todd were seen photographed together at Dana's funeral. So it hasn't been as long as they say.

Gary, Todd and Conrad were at the 2003 TV Land Awards on stage together.

Yes, Gary DID break off all ties with the former stars of Strokes.

That was probably a wrong move on his part because they might have been able to help save him a long time ago from the bad clutches of trouble that he was trapped in.

He could have been alive and well today.

So many unanswered questions, but very few answers if any at all!

And here are the pics to prove that they got together to do the '03 Awards on TVLand long after Strokes.

A then smiling Gary looked so much healthier back then, as does Todd!!
