Indeed. The afro with the part in it was so funny to me.
Very sad. RIP Gary. You lived such a short life.

His show was one of my favorite to watch when I was a small child.

His co-star, Dana Plato, was very troubled too.
She later posed for Playboy in 1989, and died of prescription drug overdose in 1999.
