PING!!!!
Hey, did you know that Gerald McRaney is married to Delta Burke, who stared on Designing Women with Dixie Carter who was on Diff’rent Strokes where Gordon Jump guest stared as a pedophile with a thing for Dudley, and Gordon Jump was on WKRP with Tim Reid who stared on... you guessed it, Simon and Simon with Gerald McRaney!
And Dana Plato fatally O.D. ed in Moore Oklahoma, birth place of Danny Cooksey, who played Sam McKinney, the step son on Diff’rent Strokes seasons 6 and 7. How crazy is that?
And Shelley Fabares was Craig T. Nelson's wife on Coach, and in real life, she's married to Mike Farrell, and on Hello Larry, she played McLain Stevenson's wife!
So, since Hello Larry was a spin off of Diff’rent Strokes, I think everything somehow relates to that show.
I'm gonna spend this afternoon researching Facts Of Life (another “Strokes” spin-off) since it served as a launching pad for so many of today's brightest stars.
