Description:
Geraldo's staff named this episode "Starred-Crossed Kids: When Fame Hits ... and Runs."
It's a gathering of seven former child actors and actresses who are asked to comment about how fame at an early age affected them and whether or not they had any regrets.
Geraldo welcomes Danny Bonaduce ("The Partridge Family"), Danielle Brisebois ("All in the Family"), Jon Provost ("Lassie"), Dr. Jeannie Russell ('Margaret' on "Dennis the Menace"), Susan Olsen ("The Brady Bunch"), Butch Patrick ("The Munsters") and Johnny Whitaker ("Family Affair") to the stage.
Commenting from the audience are (Grandpa) Al Lewis and Dr. Paul Reisch (Chariman of the Drama Dept. at New York's High School of the Performing Arts).
I missed the opening credits and introductions; I was probably running around looking for a blank video cassette. Also, at 22:54, there's breaking news regarding a fatal building collapse on Manhattan's upper west side which briefly interrupts the programming.
At the end of the episode is news regarding the arrest of one of Geraldo's panelist - a mere three days before this pre-recorded episode was broadcast.
