You MUST know Arnold from Diff'rent Strokes? He was a guest star because Facts of Life was a spin-off from that show. Wait until tomorrow night, he's even funnier!

He's from Different strokes. He was on the pilot for fol also. Kindof like to transition Charlotte Rae from one show to another. He was funny, huh!

Lord, how old do I feel???? (FORTY) How old am I???? (25)

Arnold was the one who used to say "Whatchew talkin' 'bout, Willis??" He had a thing for trains. He was from Harlem, and his mother used to work for Mr. Drummond. When she died, she "left" Arnold and Willis to Mr. Drummond.

Any of this ringing bells????

Gary Coleman played Arnold on "Diff'rent Strokes" from 1978-1986. From what I've heard, NAN might be getting DS soon too, which would be great to see that and Facts back-to-back.

However, Gary now refuses to answer any Diff'rent Strokes-related questions, saying that it's been 15 years and it's time to move on. Nonetheless, for his sake, you'd think he'd want to talk about that show as opposed to everything afterwards.

If that is the case, how come he is always popping up on local radio stations? He sounds kinda crazy now talking about how he is still a virgin and other weird stuff that we really don't want to know about.

I'm in the minority here but I'm not a Gary Coleman fan and was never particularly fond of 'Diff'rent Strokes'.

I've given up a long time ago trying to figure out what makes him tick.... I think his website says it best - the only guy who can make $18 million and still not manage to get laid....
