Live in Front of a Studio Audience: 'The Facts of Life' and 'Diff'rent Strokes'

I didn't take this as serious TV, nor should anyone. It was fun. The actors did a terrific job, and it was great entertainment. I can only speak for my house: we laughed from start to finish.

Great remakes of timeless episodes. I enjoyed the all star cast Kevin, Jason, Snoop, Jennifer, Gabby, Ann, Allison, Kathy, Damon amd John. Next year, I would love to see Sanford & Son and What's Happening. Awesome job!!

I wish they would do this over and over again! Ann Dowd was amazing but everyone was so great! John Lithgow and Kevin Hart were hilarious! Let's do a Golden Girls episode or Mamas Family next!

While I did miss Nancy returning with her former cast mates, what I mean is I missed Jo.. the character. I usually enjoy Hahn's roles and characters but my God did she miss play Jo. It was overacted with weird random movements and oddly loud. It was not a fit unfortunately. Nancy was to smooth at slipping her insults in as Jo, Hahn seemed to playing a starving, angry orphan child or something. It was not Jo and It was disappointing to say the least. At least Lisa was there and looked almost exactly the same. I did Appreciate them using actors who would have been around to enjoy those shoes when they were young however the characters are best left to their original actors. The sets were on point though 👌🏻

I thought it was a fun idea to use adults as the actors, but some of them failed. The girls on the Facts of Life , especially Kathryn Hahn and Jennifer Anniston did not carry of off. Anniston was bland and Hahn just missed Jo's . Ann Dowd was amazing.

I thought Kevin Hart was great. You could believe he was an 8 year old. And the scene on John Lithgow's lap was actually touching. I think The Facts of Life fared better. Who knees Will Arnett would look so good in shorts?

But really the whole thing felt like a 60's skit at a church fun event with amateur actors and a pot luck dinner.
