I work in a mall....

I am normally a quiet guy....

I eat salads to get my fiber....

Yet I GUFFAWED at that picture!!!!! That is so WRONG!!

although they do have the bunkbed, the bike pictures, and Tootie's pigtails.

I will have to give this a shot!

OK... I'm editing because I just noticed... Natalie has a Star of David around her neck. OH MY!!!

And... are ANY of those people women? The only one that looks female is Blair. I guess I didn't read the original post very well...

I mean, I don't mind men playing the role of women, but I mean, reeeeeally, MRS.G WAS NOT FAT! And as for Jo, let's not even go there, lol.

Can't wait till Lizzie (Charlotte Rae Fan) sees this, lol.

That's true. Mrs. G. was not fat at all. She was as cute as a dish. But Jo looks great! Not as tough, but oh well.......She needs to shave.

I was just at the Diff'rent Strokes board, and the same person who plays Jo plays Mr. Drummond, the girl who plays Tootie also plays Arnold, and the girl who plays Blair, plays Kimberly.

That's disturbing. So disturbing. Blair looks like a freak. So does Mrs. G. And Jo too! Everyone!!!!!

I pity Charlotte, Mindy, Nancy, Lisa, and Kim. I pity them very much if they have to watch this

You must know original & revival casts, soundtracks, performance runs, dates, theatres, numbers, how many Tony Awards A Chorus Line won.
You must be Broadway.

Well, no offense to anyone here or to Charlotte Rae... but she was definitely more plump in the first season. Remember in "New Girl" when she gets all the compliments from the girls about losing her weight?

Obviously this is for strictly humor -- no real harm meant. Besides, they guy playing Mrs. G obviously has some weight issues. Since it's comedy, it's not like they are going to go out and audition women who look identical to Charlotte Rae. I mean, come on... they have a man playing Natalie, who I love. But I'm not too offended. Not too...

Ugh...that is disturbing, ESPECIALLY Jo. Wasn't Natalie's hair lighter? Are you SURE Tootie is a girl, cause that kid looks like a guy. I'm going to watch and tape this, but it's still disturbing. I'll probably have nightmares from there on out, but at least it's FOL...kinda
