What I'm Talking About, Willis, is Great TV

On Monday, 20 years after the show was canceled, NBC is airing a made-for-TV "movie event" called "Behind the Camera: The Unauthorized Story of Diff'rent Strokes."

NBC describes this special movie presentation this way: "When the show went off the air, the story was just beginning. This original movie event follows the lives of Gary Coleman, Todd Bridges, and Dana Plato as their lives became the stuff of tabloid legend."

Coleman and Bridges worked closely with the producers and will be interviewed on-camera during the show.

This movie has the potential to be as touching as the very special episode when Kimberly had bulimia, or when Nancy Reagan guest starred to "just say no," or even the one where Arnold's friend Dudley falls victim to a child molestor played by Gordon Jump.

Best. Labor Day. Ever.
