    I hated the mom on family too. Willie was the only cool one other than Buddy. Quinn Cummings always made me want to strangle her. Wow memories!

    Fulton, she was one of my big crushes too!

    Normally I only lurk, but that one demands I come out of my shell. I had my first child at 39 and just gave birth to my second at 41. Surely I must be misunderstanding what you are saying.

    I looked it up. Family ran from 1976-1980

    Sadie Thompson, who played her mother, just turned 79.

    Kristy McNichol, who played Buddy, just turn 46.
    By the way, in the show her real name was Letitia.

    That would have made Buddy's mother 33 when she had her.

    I also remember there was one episode where Buddy's mother got pregnant and Buddy told her she should have an abortion because she was too old.

    Gee , that Buddy was not very supportive?

    I think Buddy's mother would have been pushing mid 40's to late at this point, so that is a long shot.

    She eventually miscarried, solving that problem.

    There was other topical issues on the show such as Buddy dealing with advances from boys.

    In the later seasons, there were instances in which Buddy had to decide whether or not to have sex; she always chose to wait, most notably in an episode with guest star Leif Carrett, who was a teen idol at the time.

    James Broderick, who is Matthew Broderick's father was also two years older than his wife in the show.
    James died of cancer when he was 55

    Meredith Baxter is now 61.
    That would have made the mother 18 when she had her.
    Gary Frank, who played the son, is 58.

    The show kind of jumped the shark for me when they brought in an Orphan Named Annie.
    This was played by Quinn Cummings who is 41.

    Here is a quote from wikipedia.org from Kristy about her departure from show business.It appears she has had trouble with bi-polar disorder.
    I think her money was well managed so she doesn't have to worry about that.

    Her last public statement to her fans was in June 2001, when she said:
    "A lot of people have wondered what I've been up to. I retired from my career after 24 years. My feeling was that it was time to play my biggest part — MYSELF! I must say that it has been the best thing that ever happened to me. So many fans are disappointed that I'm not currently acting, however some may not realize that the process I'm in at this time is necessary and vital for my personal happiness and well-being."

    I agree. I don't know what it is about with older lesbians in their 40's getting a "pixie " cut type of hairdo.

    Kristy almost looks like k.d. lang (and how she looks now) in that recent pic.

    The dad on that show was James Broderick, father of Matthew Broderick who is married to Sarah Jessica Parker. I always loved Kristy as an actress. Never quite warmed up to Quinn Cummings. Willie was great. I think him and Kristy were the stars of that show. OF course Merideth Baxter Birney was always a great Actress. I acutally really ejoyed the Mom on that show.

    Wow, you really did your homework. I really like that statement that Kristy put out in 2001. Very well written and honest. Especially the last line.

    Hot Slut Of The Day!




    Rex Smith - Teen pop idol, Solid Gold host and TV actor. Rex had a hit in the 70s with "You Take My Breath Away", but didn't have any hits after that. He went on to host Solid Gold and act in As the World Turns. After that shit, Rex starred in several musical theater productions on Broadway and beyond. Below is another picture of this hot bitch back in the day a couple of him now. Yeah, he needs to bring that feathered hair back.

    Linda Ronstadt and Jerry Brown used to go steady back when she was a pop superstar and he was Governor of California: http://www.laobserved.com/images/linda&jerry.jpg

    Jerry is still involved in California politics. I think he looks way different now...reminds me of his father, another Cal Governor, Pat Brown: http://www.sbcpf.org/images/candidates/Brown.jpg

    Linda is still singing, still beautiful. In fact she's now my role model for all a BBW can be! http://www.scott-smith.com/images/to...a_ronstadt.jpg

    Abe came sauntering along with those big sad hound dog eyes and stopped and chatted a few minutes about what we had purchased. He was a really nice guy and it was a typical NY moment when you end up interacting with someone you never expected to meet.

    After he passed he left Madam ( not sure if it was one of many or "the one and only" Madam, to friends of ours.
    They were a couple of older gay men who had been together for over 30 years. They reflected their times, pastel cardigan sweaters and they smoked Eve ciggarettes and the story's they could tell!!!!
    They had great parties and Madam would be propped up in a place of honor with a cocktail and a cigarrette presiding over the proceedings.

    I have to admit, I was totally in love with Rex Smith back in the day. I got Took My Breath Away on Netflix and watched it not too long ago. Totally hilarious, now. He's still pretty handsome, but not the hottie he used to be.

    Does everyone remember that he was the headline performer at the Beverly Hills Supper Club in Kentucky on Memorial Day in the 70s when a fire broke out. The place was huge. Over one hundred people died trying to get out. One of the worst night club fires in US history.
    He made it out but his pianist who went back to try to save their sheet music of all things didn;t make it out.
    Wow is he creepy!

    I'm not so certain that it's the plastic surgery so much as trying to pass for someone much younger with the clothes, the hairdo, & all the goopey make-up.

    Ilan Mitchell-Smith

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilan_Mitchell-Smith

    Ilan Mitchell-Smith (born June 29, 1969) is an American assistant professor of English at Angelo State University in San Angelo, Texas, but he is best known as an actor and co-star of the movie Weird Science (1985). He was born in New York City.
    His film career began in 1983 at age fourteen when he played a younger version of the title character in Sidney Lumet's Daniel. After a starring role in the 1984 film The Wild Life, he was cast as Wyatt Donnelly in the 1985 teen classic Weird Science by writer/director John Hughes. The film focuses on two nerdy teenage boys who create a woman of their own (played by Kelly LeBrock) as they are unable to find girlfriends. Although this proved to be his only major role, he was overshadowed by his more famous co-star Anthony Michael Hall as well as future stars Robert Downey Jr. and Bill Paxton.
    After Weird Science, his acting career slowed down. While he had starring roles in several other films and TV series, most notably The Chocolate War and Superboy, none of these brought him the same degree of recognition. He decided to leave acting entirely in 1991, his final role being a guest appearance on Silk Stalkings.
    Mitchell-Smith earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Medieval Studies from UC Davis. He then earned a Master of Arts degree from Fordham University. He received his Ph.D. from Texas A&M University. He is currently an Assistant Professor of English at Angelo State University.
    He and his wife (married 1995) have two children.







    Now: With a Ph.D. in medieval English literature, Dr. Mitchell-Smith is a professor at Angelo State University in San Angelo, Texas. "I grew up the biggest Dungeons & Dragons nerd," he says. Now 39, he's working on his latest treatise, Between Mars and Venus: Balance and Excess in Chivalry in the Late Medieval English Period, and has two children with his wife, Susannah.
