It was a tough call between Arnold and punky Brewster but I voted for Punky because she was a pretty slick kid for her age.

She IS a real Hottie nowadays!

Not only did I have a crush on him, I actually enjoyed the SHOW, too. ;) *lol* I wanted to climb inside my tv and play those video games and hitch a ride on that cool train he had running through his living room.

I remember when Menudo made a guest appearance at his birthday party, too. Those guys were cuuuute!

I would have to give my vote to Arnold from Different Strokes.

These choices all pretty much annoyed me, but I had to vote for Gary Coleman. I would have to say that as for TV sitcom kids (or teens, for that matter), I totally wanted to shag Blair from 'The Facts of Life'!

I had to go with Arnold. He was my favorite at the time, hands down. Of course, I always wanted to be Ricky Stratton. :rolleyes:

For me it has to be Darlene from "Roseanne". She had to be the most wise-assed kid ever on TV! It's my fav sitcom of all time... waiting for the DVD collection, I am

Kelly Bundy :drool:

I went with other. My fav was Sara Gilbert who played Darlene on Roseanne. She kind of reminded me of myself at that time (rebellish teenager) and I just thought she was cool. :thumb: Oh and I thought Jonny Galecki who played David was hot at that time :naughty:

I always liked Alex from 'One Day at a Time' who was played by Glenn Scarpelli

I wonder whatever happened to him?

I liked the Seaver kids..probably Mike, when the show first started. Alex P. Keaton was a little out there for me..

I voted for Punky! She was so cool! However, I would've voted for Lisa Bonet if you had a poll on teens!

I chose Rudy, she was so cute when the show first started :) I also used to love Punky Brewster, I had a quilt cover!!

I would have also chosen Kevin from The Wonder Years, but he wasn't on the poll.

Although I voted for Lisa Bonet, I also like Arnold and Punky Brewster.

Definitely Gary Coleman as Arnold on Diff'rent Strokes. He was so funny and had amazing comic timing for a kid that age. I've been rediscovering this show on DVD and loving it.

I normally would've voted for Jason Bateman but I can't let my hormones make all the decisions...

The choices were not that great. Most of them were soooo obnoxious...LOL. But I had to go with David Hogan since he was the most obnoxious it was a geniunely funny character that he portrayed. I remember he used to call those pee-wee twins on that show "chuckleheads"! Natalie from Facts would be my second choice.
