[CURTAIN SPOILERS] Actors Playing Characters

Added a "Curtain Spoilers" tag to topic. --Phaedra

I hear that Dorkmaster character is pretty special...

Honest.


But seriously, does anyone else find it odd that The dude who played Willis on Different Strokes (I'm too lazy to look up the name) is playing William Shriner (or at least his face is William's face), who is an alcoholic, washed-up child actor all grown up? I think that's awesome, and I give mad props to (un-searched "Willis" actor) for taking this role, as that takes guts!

NO!!! WILLIS! This is important 80's trivia dude... Smile We're talking about the dude that played willis... (now I gotta look it up.)

Todd Bridges. That's the dude. It cannot be anyone else. And like I said before, I give him MAJOR props for taking this role. It takes guts to admit where you were, and take it lightly for a new role. (He has some law and drug issues in his past following the show, so the character is related to the real-life scenario.)

I'm debating whether to add a "Curtain Spoilers" tag to the topic -- any thoughts/opinions? Anyone aware if there are people out there who Don't Want To Know? Or am I being absurd?

Anyway, speaking of actors, doesn't this chick look an awful lot like our little Shaylee?

Yes Phaedra, I agree it might be time to change the thread title.

Actually, it's scary how much Venus & Diane look alike.

WOW, this was "Kerry's" First professional gig, according to IMDB! That's impressive! I think he did great!

Also, Spot On, UNF'ers for correctly spotting the actress who played Lucy early on!

Man, it's done... I hate when these things are done... Sad
