Reply to comment by Medoxor in The "Eight Is Enough" kids turned out poorly: TV child stars who never made it by Lili_Danube

Mrs Garrett was always the bad one.

I remember when Geri Jewell came out. She wasn't even a regular but the FACT OF LIFE stars rallied up for her.

I hope that’s just a joke about Mrs. G. I’d be sad to find out Charlotte Rae was trouble.

She was a massive drinker. When George Clooney first got to LA he had a job driving for his aunt Rosemary. She would go drinking with Charlotte Rae and George would have to drive them home. One time he pulled over for them and Charlotte stepped one leg out of the car. peed like a racehorse, and pulled her leg back in.

Wonder if Mrs Garrett got to taste Clooney's goodies when he was a young stud?
