I was on a website recently and they were saying that Tupac had made his televison debut in the late 80's on a episode of a Different World. Now I know I have pratically seen all the episodes maybe at least 5 or 6 times each Can someone help me on this one?

Tupac played Piccolo, Lena's old boyfriend, in episode 142 "Homey, Don't Ya Know Me?" Hope this helps you. Here is a synopsis of the episode from epguides.com:
Lena's friends from Baltimore come to visit for the weekend. Lena is disconcerted to discover that Piccolo, her very attractive ex-boyfriend, has tagged along. Piccolo intends to prove that he has changed and win her back. He mocks her for dating Dorian, who tries to be mature about the situation. When Piccolo gets into an argument with Lena while dancing at the club, Dorian steps in to fight him. Lena's friend Yolanda accuses her of selling out by choosing college and her new friends over life in Baltimore. Dwayne tries to help Lena by relating his past experiences. Although Piccolo insists that he has turned away from the street scene, Lena feels he is the same selfish, unreliable person he has always been. She cares about him, but will not allow him to interfere in her life.

I totally forgot about that episode but the way they talked about it they made it seem like he appeared on the 1st season with Lisa Bonet!
