E! True Hollywood Story doesn't cover Diff'rent Strokes. I belive it was last year that they had the Entertainment Tonight Story for Diff'rent Strokes, and it was extremly sad and depressing. Dana was short of cash so she posed for Playboy, and got a pretty bad reputation, and she would show up in some really crappy movies. She robbed a video store in Las Vegas, and was arrested, but Todd Bridges was on her side, since he was arrested for drug abuse earlier. She was extremly depressed, so she made a porno movie last year called Diff'rent Strokes, and shortly after that, we found that she was overdosing on sleeping medicines and some other stuff that I can't mention on this site, but she died at her mother in-laws I think, and they checked her body, and she was on drugs again, and overdosing on her medication. It was very, very sad. They should air it again soon.

E! True Hollywood story did cover Different Strokes, and I believe it originally aired before the death of Dana Plato. There are interviews from Dana, Todd, Gary, and Conrad in this episode. Recent airings of it that I have seen include an updated ending that focuses on the death of Dana Plato.
