Are Nancy McKeon and Philip McKeon related?

Nancy plays Jo on The Facts of Life. I did not know who Philip was until his week on $25,000 Pyramid aired competing against Vicki Stubing. He is a teenager in the Alice cast (never seen that show).

Yes, they are-- Phil of Alice is the big brother to Nancy of The Facts of Life (Phil born in 1964, Nancy in 1966).

Agreed, both of them are born two years apart

I think Nancy actually appeared on 2 episodes of Alice before FOL

If that's true, did not realize that Nancy guested on her big brother Phil's show on CBS!

At times I've noticed some similarities in the way that they talk.
