In fulfillment of the dying wishes of his former housekeeper, he has taken in her two sons, Willis (Todd Bridges) and Arnold Jackson (Gary Coleman), ghetto youths from Harlem whose fish-out-of-water status in their new home forms the comic basis of the show. In the second season, Arnold and Mrs. Garrett each experiment in love, and Arnold meets his hero, Muhammed Ali. [More]
