i was looking at the schedule for the marathon on the diff'rent strokes site and there's an episode on tommorow night that looks like willis wants to have sex with that girlfriend of his charlene. if anybody's seen this episode, which i have not, are you surprised nick at nite is airing it, considering this is serious subject material?

It wasn't that constroversal, it's kind of like The Facts Of Life ep in a way, where Jeff asks Tootie to sleep with him.

Charlene is played by Janet Jackson, if I remember correctly. And the show ends with the moral that teens should wait till they're older before beginning a sexual relationship.

072 - Growing Up

His friends' stories of their sexual exploits convince Willis it's time he
"became a man"--now he must convince his steady girl friend Charlene.

This episode was shown on the Screen Gems Network, it's not that controversial...
