Damn - the show was take-it-or-leave-it when I was a youngster, but I might have to get the season that had Mr T as a guest star.

Here is a link directly to the news story:

I will pick this one up too. Loved this show in the younger days, and will probably still enjoy it.

No word on extras yet, and wouldn't be surprised if it is bare bones, but will still get it, either way.

Everybody's got a special kind of story
Everybody finds a way to shine,
It don't matter what you got not alot
So what,
They'll have theirs, and you'll have yours, and I'll have mine.
And together we'll be fine....

So this will come out, then we're gonna get the spinoff, The Facts Of Life, right?

Mrs. Garrett... easily the best of Mr. Drummond's housekeepers. Of course, she was overqualified, so that explains it!

And correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Kim Fields and Gary Coleman appear on an episode (or each in a different one) of Good Times (but not as Tootie and Arnold)?

I wonder if they'll include the E! True Hollywood Story on the DS set.

BOMM,

CS

I was thinking this too. Hopefully, if they are releasing Diff'rent Strokes, Facts of Life can't be far behind.

I'm not sure I understand your point. Do you not understand why someone would want to own any tv shows on DVD? I would think the ability to see it anytime you want, without commercials, and a nice looking picture would be enough.

Or are you just wondering about Diff'rent Stroke in particular? Because obviously, not everyone agrees with you that the show sucked...

I like owning TV Shows on DVD. I doubt I'd ever buy this series though.

I think the theme was written by Alan Thicke from "Growing Pains". He started out as a songwriter. Great childhood memories

I hope we get Gary Coleman,Todd Bridges,Charlotte Rae, commentaires


RIP Dana Plato + Conrad Bain (still alive apperently)

Who the hell are you to decide what is a "shitty" tv show. We all had our favourites growing up. If you didn't like it then just don't buy it. End of story.!! Why must you trash others who might want to and make a point about it!

I'd like know what you think is a "good" tv show so I can take a dump on your choices!

I hope moderators read your post and terminate you! It was really unecessary!
