WHET is either a noun or verb that means something totally different.

R3 is like that newbie congressman from Utah that lectured Hakeem Jeffries about patriotism.

R3 Its an inside thing in DL. A mistake that lived on. I learned it recently too.

R3 In the outside world it is WEHT. On Datalounge it is WHET.

There are lots of WHET threads on DL - I suggest reading them while enjoying can and graxy. Don't tell Lens Dunham, though - she will want you to share with her - and then she'll eat all the cake, and drink all the graxy.

I remember James at 15 and then James at 16.

I wanted to be him; the star of a TV show and get to work with Kate Jackson in the movie pilot.

Instead, I came to LA and worked as an extra in a few movies and TV shows.

I remember hearing that Lance Kerwin lost his hair pretty young.

It was the 70s. The right hair was almost everything.

Paula Poundstone. Wasn't she suspected of going down on her daughter in the 90s?

She still looks better than Ellen.

Oh man, Lance Kerwin. I had such a crush on him (I was 15 at the time of James at 15, and was enraptured with him). And BOY did he go to seed. BAD. When he turned into a bible-thumping fundie after falling down a drug hole, he looked AWFUL. I see he's bounced back from the worst of it, but still, ick.

I still remember that shower scene he had with Scott Baio in "The Boy Who Drank Too Much" After School special/movie. There's another guy who turned into a right-wing loony-toon. He's one of the biggest assholes on twitter, apparently taking lessons from James Woods (a guy so bad that Family Guy killed off his character to get rid of him).

Lisa Nicole Carson. Had supporting roles on two popular series running at the same time: ER and Ally Mc Beal. She apparently went crazy from bipolar disorder and was written off both shows. But that was years ago. Where is she now?

WHET to Lisa Nicole Carson?

R13, Diane is on Facebook and interacts with fans that respond to her posts. Not sure if she still performs at all. She actually has an official website but I don’t think it’s been updated in years.

R18, Suzanne is also on Facebook and up until last year was still doing live shows regularly. Last I saw she was trying to get some Zoom-style interview show going but I haven’t seen any updates for awhile. I seem to recall she was arrested for DUI a few years back.

The original four castaways from FoL

by Anonymousreply 39February 9, 2021 7:23 PM

Some '70s TV stars and heartthrobs for the elders among us:

- Radames Pera of Kung Fu and Little House now sells high-end sound equipment in Hollywood (home screening rooms, etc.)

- Pamelyn Ferdin is now a full-time PETA-style animal activist as far as I can tell. Lives in L.A.

- Jeremy Gelbwaks (the first Chris Partridge) has a computer business in New Orleans.

- Tony DeFranco of the DeFranco Family is a realtor in the San Fernando Valley last I checked.

by Anonymousreply 40February 9, 2021 7:47 PM

Pamelyn Ferdin posts very prolifically on Facebook.

What about Tracy Wells from Mr. Belvedere? Or Andrea Elson and Anne Schedeen from Alf?

Boys with the type of hair Lance Kerwin had tend to lose it fairly early.

Generally, the cuter a boy is as a child actor the plainer he is as an adult.
