I love the Natalie and Snake (Damone!) virginity episode, even though it was in the Bev years.
There, there, Mr. Matt..............
And no I remember the episode itself, but just not that she was in a Charlie Chaplin costume.
I am amazed at the memories you guys have!
"I love Tootie and the teen hooker episode. Tootie was rocking that cleopatra headdress."
None other than Tammy Lauren, who rocked the rabbit skin fur coat and side pony tail!
I had totally forgotten that Cloris Leachman was in that show......wait....it WAS Cloris Leachman right?

Yes. And Bev was no Edna, Stockard.
doodle, I had a rabbit fur jacket in the fifth grade!
Remember George's mullet?
blueroses - I don't consider the Bev years The Facts of Life. I love Cloris Leachman, but the show was never the same (and the hair was never bigger). And any time a series tosses a new cute little kid into the cast, you know it's countdown to cancellation.
StockardFan - I think it was the Chaplin costume that got her into trouble. That was hot.
LOL, Mr. Matt!!!

"And any time a series tosses a new cute little kid into the cast, you know it's countdown to cancellation." Absolutely! When I read that sentence, the annoying curly haired girl from Growing Pains came to mind.
yep, and Cousin Oliver from Brady Bunch.
It's called "Cousin Oliver Syndrome."

That girl on Growing Pains (Chrissie) was bad, but I liked her as DJ's pushy and eerily masculine girlfriend on Roseanne. But the worst for me was that awful red-headed Huckleberry Finn that got dragged into Diff'rent Strokes when Dixie Carter sauntered her way into the cast.

I'm confused! Do you mean the sassy little girl in the wheelchair?

Well, the Beverly Ann years did bring us the scourge that was Pippa, but we also had Pamela Seagall and Mackenzie Astin foisted upon us before that!
Oh good GOD was Mackenzie Astin annoying! What the hell was that brat always doing hanging around anyways??
Doodle and I did totally jinx each other!
I think it was a little boy wasn't it in Different Strokes?

I swear he had a family during his first seasons, but at some point he became an orphan and Beverly Ann adopted him.
Leave it to the f**king orphans to ruin EVERYTHING!
Remember the one where Blair won a poetry contest which she won by plagarizing Emily Dickinson?
Now I'm the one who's confused. What show are we talking about?
The devil.

StockardFan, you're thinking of Danny Cooksey, who played Maggie's (Dixie Carter and later Mary Ann Mobely) son Sam on the later years of Diff'rent Strokes.
Yeah, I think little Danny got kidnapped on a "very special episode" at one point.

Too many 80s shows flying around at once!
Arnold was almost molested once on a very special episode. By Gordon Jump!
Who is the sassy girl in the wheelchair?
