Diff'rent Strokes: Season Three

In Diff’rent Strokes: Season Three, Gary Coleman and Todd Bridges return as brothers Arnold and Willis Jackson for another season of family fun and life lessons. During the season, Arnold and Willis get held hostage by bank robbers, Mr. Drummond (Conrad Bain) celebrates his 50th birthday in the hospital, Kimberly (Dana Plato) helps a pregnant girl friend, and Arnold “the great” goes missing after a more-than-effective disappearing act. Diff’rent Strokes never shied away from the social and cultural issues at hand, but always managed to deliver laughs and heartfelt character development from week to week. Diff’rent Strokes ran for eight seasons, from 1978–1986.
 
Diff’rent Strokes: Season Three includes special appearances by The Facts of Life characters “Blair” (Lisa Whelchel) and “Natalie” (Mindy Cohn) and former Dallas Cowboys NFL player Ed “Too Tall” Jones. The set features 22 episodes
