DIFF'RENT STROKES
aired from 1978-1986, taking place in Manhattan and
centering around the story of the Drummond family. Phillip
Drummond is a wealthy, penthouse-dwelling widower who lives
with his teenage daughter Kimberly; in fulfillment of the
dying wishes of his former housekeeper, he has taken in her
two sons, Willis and Arnold Jackson, ghetto youths from
Harlem whose fish-out-of-water status in their new home
forms the comedic basis of the show. In the first season,
the boys try to escape back to Harlem, Willis finds (and
loses) his first job, Willis gets up to all kinds of
mischief, and incredulous friends and relatives of both
families come to visit. |
