Welcome Back Kotter: Truth Behind The Sitcom 1/2

[thundermaster41]

Wow Alan Sacks Hair was ummm very odd looking with all that money maybe he should have bought rogein or have some sort of hair replacement!

[JBofBrisbane]

And I always thought "Welcome Back Kotter" was based on the British "Please Sir".

[joycollector]

5:30 ...This is the first time I've seen footage of Debralee Scott near the end of her life. She still looked great! So sad that she died so young.

[buddy1885]

1:23 wow WTF

[tablaqueen]

this must be pretty old, they still look quite young in it

[MartinShowForums]

@tablaqueen Yeah this is old, this originally aired in 2000 on FOX. I have several of these on VHS (not good quality...but good enough to see). I don't have a decent way to upload them, but i might just upload them the only way I can.

[atfatw]

was quite a pain in the toucas on the show running around behaving like a little hitler or bill shatner trying to write the show, direct it, and handle the cameras. is now a missionary for the scientology church

[chrisallenrichie]

RIP Robert Hegyes.

[LastNetwork2]

@nahpoli He Just Died at age 60

[nahpoli]

@LastNetwork2 Geez, I was just asking why he wasnt in this program.....RIP Robert (Epstein) Hegyes!!

[TheIrvinlopez]

There was a Vinny in every school in Brooklyn. I remember those days.

[oaklandlatinosunited]

is it me or does Gabe kaplan resemble Billy Crystal .

[dstluke]

Sacks looks like the bad guy from "Who Killed Roger Rabbit"

[dstluke]

What the hell is with that hair? Did he use a dead poodle as a toupee?

[Aeolis7]

Alan Sacks looks completely stupid.

[WilliamHBonney55]

I loved this show. Me and my friends were all country boys in special education class and we could relate to this show.

[ashcarl116]

rest in peace, hotsy totsy.

[stitchesful]

I'm surprised the other actors didn't resent Travolta's success.

[loola456]

Gabe is a great poker player now

[hotpocketpizzapop]

What in the fuck is with John Sack's fucking hair? Doesn't he have ANYONE close enough to him to tell him he looks like a fucking retard? Even a dog or a cat could make it known somehow that your hair looks moronic.

[kdog1069]

@hotpocketpizzapop HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA thats sooo trure

[cochranexyz]

@hotpocketpizzapop Hollywood....

[LISATAYLORB171]

@hotpocketpizzapop LMAO!!! I was thinking the same thing! What da hail is that on his head...lmao!!!

[dbeall100]

@hotpocketpizzapop Are the f-bombs necessary?

[rainer1980]

Gabe Kaplan doesn't look like he's aged much in 35 years.

[colemann76]

@rainer1980 Gabe Kaplan looks younger here than he did in the show.

[psynema]

@rainer1980 I'm guessing this is a 90s show

[rainer1980]

@psynema

No. it was a 70's show.

[psynema]

@rainer1980 No I meant the documentary, it's not recently made so they still look young, not 35 years later

[shootersteve]

@rainer1980 Look again

[kulaman]

How the hell is it that the dude who Played the Teacher looks YOUNGER than the guys he was supposed to be teaching in High school?

[BrooklynSal]

The nuns and teachers at my school went insane over this show.

[Chrisdrumz]

Gabe Kaplan is perhaps one of the unfunniest "funny" people to ever walk the earth.

[tanrat7]

I am quite sure horshack got a nose job but i think he looked better with the bigger nose

[vincevega0]

@tanrat7 He lost weight as well....

[tanrat7]

@vincevega0 actually he looks like he gained weight which happens with age

[vincevega0]

@tanrat7 Sorry what I meant to say was he lost weight since the posting on YouTube entitled "Interview with Ron Palillo" posted by "LongIslandFilmExpo" He still has his old nose there.

[Icanbecreative]

Where is John Travoltas recent interview?

[jurvis1]

Washington looks like Washington, but Horse Shack I'd never recognize on the street.

[seka1986]

Why does Gabe look African American as he ages?

[wallyworld776]

@seka1986 has something to do with his Jewish heritage. I can't specifically type or what region of Jewish person, but they tend to do that, as well as Sicilians.

[19florydory00]

Wow, they all look great!

[leahann517]

Gabe Kaplan turned into a dead ringer for Billy Crystal!

[kevico2]

Kotter DID NOT change one bit... Unbelievable. I wonder what facial cream he uses!

[c0uchsl0uch]

twattle ??

[SPQR62]

What year was this interview done?

[thislost]

@SPQR62 A lot of these specials first aired on FOX back in 2000. I think that's when these originally aired. Where did the time go?

[johnnysouthbound]

@thislost Time flies by so fast ,it`s scary :(

[bklynAtrain]

I loved Welcome Back Kotter!! So sad how Debra Lee Scott passed away.

[GhostryderRebel]

I remembered one of those Honey Combs cerea i had a small Welcome Back Kotter poster inside the box Honey Comb cereal i used to have that Poster of Mr Kotter and i have it for two decades until that dam storm blew my house away and the poster was gone!
