[11th Commandment]

Whatca talking about Willis? Still makes me laugh

[RanGreHad]

I am disappointed. I had hoped he would make another run for governor of California.

[Col Frank Slade]

Does he drive around in a little clown car ?

[Moonlighter]

There's been a rash of trouble/crimes involving childhood stars from that era, but those from Different Strokes seem to have a disproportionately high share of them.

[Tzimisce]

What chu talking bout Willis?

[dps.inspect]

B-slapping midgets again, that little runt.

[jrg]

What did he do, punch her in the knee cap?

Maybe he forcefully tried to "go up" on her.

[NorCoGOP]

“What you talkin’ ‘bout, officer?”

[trumandogz]

The child stars on Diff’rent Strokes each turned-out to be fine upstanding citizens.

[red tie]

Does this look like a happily married man to you!

[dps.inspect]

Only burnished his credentials...

[VicVega]

Frame up.

The man is always trying to keep the little man down.

[b4its2late]

Just beat you under the wire..... LOL

[b4its2late]

A man without a woman is like a neck without a pain.

I think Rick Schroder is one of the few modern child tv stars that were able to whether it through to adulthood without law enforcement problems.

[Doogle]

..if somebody gives him a boost up

[red tie]

The picture would also be a good ad for where’s my Hope & Change Obama?

[Anti-Kenyan]

He has a really short temper....

[Yaelle]

Wow, her thigh must be badly bruised.

This guy cannot get away from Loser Status.

[Oldpuppymax]

What did he do...bite her ankle?

[teletech]

What happened? Did he stick his nose in someone elses business?

[Doogle]

short fuse

Not sure how popular this show was since I didn't watch TV in the 80s or early 90s - but this gal did okay other than dressing badly. Saw her on What Not to Wear - she has a nice hubby, couple of cute kids and a Phd in neuroscience.

[TruthHound]

I swear I’m in Groundhog Day. I keep seeing the same headlines over & over.

“Gary Coleman Arrested...”
“Air America Bankrupt...”
“Brad Pit to Divorce...”
“Jobs Saved or Created...”

Let me out!

[Steelfish]

The woman is mental!!!!

[ConservativeDude]

damn, he sort of looks like Mike Tyson!

[beethovenfan]

When they’re nose to nose his toes are in it.

When they’re toes to toes his nose is in it.

[JimRed]

The 4ft 8in star has-been is currently being held on $1,725 bail...

Editing.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

Take away his ladder!

[RichInOC]

He looks like he’s doing his Dennis Haysbert impression.

“Are you in good hands?”

[Steelfish]

Wasn’t there a law against this kind of stuff?

[Delta 21]

Coleman is married to Shannon Price, who is almost half his age - and almost twice his height.

[red tie]

Sure doesn’t look like a fun guy anymore.

[Jack Hydrazine]

How can we relate this to Tiger Woods?

[Moonlighter]

There’s only a handful that come to mind. Rick’s one and Alyssa Milano is one that consistently remained in the limelight and did well for herself. Hardpressed to think of many more.

[jettester]

Yoda’s little brother?

[red tie]

That’s it. I was trying to think who he looked like!
