"Hey, you're on the network"
Most 80's thing I'd ever heard but I love it

[@scottandeeson8718]

Ari Meyers was so fricken cute!

[@1111nolanc]

I'm one year younger than her. I was completely smitten with her when this show was on. Couldn't be cuter.

[@seymoreskinner3]

@@1111nolancI fully agree. The only reason I watched the show was to see the lovely Ari

[@TheIntendedOutcome]

Interviewer trying the steer some controversy by comparing. These children knew what was up, brilliant maturity for their age. We don't see that often even now.

Loved "Kate & Allie"! Thank you, so much, for sharing!

[@mcribs7811]

Allison turned out beautiful as well. It was great that I was the same age as these two beauties.

[@Kohntarkosz]

Wasn't one of them a scuba diver? I remember seeing one of them on a talk show talking about diving, but don't remember which one it was.

[@joshscott3184]

Allison smith was my first crush...ive always had good taste

[@orphanoforbit7588]

She's still very attractive.

[@formerlyduped2429]

She later had a nose job which she definitely did not need ( as far as I know!) but she's always been cute. She's a wonderful singer and actress and seems a nice person

[@Kohntarkosz]

Which one of them was into scuba diving? I remember seeing an interview with one of them, can't remember which, though, where she mentioned she was a diver.

[@ekaterinalekkas2356]

Ariadne Meyers is so beautiful.

[@SaucyWench7]

These young girls were raised well. Of course, now they are not so young, lol. They probably have daughters older than this.

[@paulmc3457]

God, Ari made me stand up and hard at attention many times back then! 😂
