Default E! True Hollywood Story is being produced now

For those of you wondering if there would be an E! True Hollywood Story, here is the confirmation:

Hi webmaster!

Anyway, my team and I have just begun work on an episode of "E! True Hollywood Story" concerning "Gimme A Break!" I have been snooping around trying to find any interesting or cool stuff we could use in the show... and I figured you might be a good person to ask. I did look on EBay, and there's a lot of cool stuff there... I was just wondering whether you might know anyone (maybe in the L.A. area?) with any kind of a substantial
collection of "Gimme A Break" fan stuff (maybe on-set photos?) who might want to share some of that stuff with a national audience.

We're focusing mainly on the show, but we will be dealing with the cast's lives (especially Nell Carter's) after the show.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

This is great! It's the best news I have ever heard! This show really, really , really deserved one. I mean, even what happened with Nell, prior to that, this show was E! Hollywood material.



I hope that they interview Lara, Laurie Kari, Joey, Matt, Thelma and Rosie. They are the final surviving cast members of the series.


Maybe they can even do an interview with me if they wanted to. I have been inspired by GAB since 1997 when it was on re runs, and I know that if I was born in the early 70's, I would have remembered the show when I was a kid, instead of waiting to see it in a "second genteration form", since the show ended when I was a mere child of 5, ready to begin school.


I would love to voice my opinion on this show to E! I am a fan full of RAGE. RAGE that this show was one of the best ever. Why doesn't it get the respect it deserves. (GIVE THE SHOW A BREAK!) At least now they are getting their chance. Maybe this can open a whole new door for newtorks now, and they can finally see that Gimme A Break needs to be shown in honor of what a great show it was (Especially Nick at Nite, TVLAND, and TBS, who I would wish would consider showing it.)


But I am happy all together. I had a lot of fate that in a few years I will go out to Hollywood and begin my process to start the GAB reunion, but I always said to myself "If Nell dies before this happens, the whole plan is gone". Now it is impossible. She kept the show alive, she kept the show together. It was her who made it last 2 years more after the Chief passed away.
