Gimme a Break! (1981): Where Are They Now?

[sexonnaplatter]

Those Lawrence boys were the Justin Beibers of their day--teenybopper girls squealed, while males of all ages recoiled and cringed in horror (even gay males). Oh well, producers don't mind if you completely please one demographic while totally grossing out another.

Nell had a sad life, poor girl, she was such a great actress and singer! WE LOVE YOU NELL! :)

@antoinec822 Telma Louise Hopkins was a member of the 1970s pop group Tony Orlando and Dawn; she was known for her witty one-liner retorts to a bemused Tony Orlando on their popular TV show . . . remember? --Loved her! :

Good to see updates on all the characters. I loved this show as a kid but I don't remember all those characters. They don't make tv shows like this anymore, it's all that stupid reality junk. Thanks for putting all this together- I'm enjoying all your where are they now updates. :)

I always thought Joey's Last name was Lawance? Did he change his name or is Donovan his real last name?

[mooky9669]

@SirRembrant Donovan was his last name on the show.

@mooky9669 Oh okay... I get it now your showing their character names on the video :P Gotcha! Thanks!

@SirRembrant I believe it has always been Lawrence in any other sites that i have looked online it was always Lawrence, maybe the uploader got it wrong?

Thank you for putting this together. I got the complete series of GAB that was put out in Canada but no mention of the stars are included on it.

Just a couple of additions. Mr. Hoyt was a very well-known and established character actor, dating back to at least the '40s. He also appeared in some classic eps of The Twilight Zone.

Someone on IMDB stated Alvernette Jimenez stopped acting and was working as a sectretary. Someone else stated that they ran into her in 2009 & still looked great.

What Nell went through was really sad...she was such a talented lady...

[sdseals2076]

The lady that played Ade also played in Family Matters.

I loved Howard, what a lovely man! Loved him a "Grandpa" on 'The Munsters Today'.
