A photo of George Clooney (top center) in the TV show The Facts of Life. The show, a spinoff of the sitcom Diff’rent Strokes, ran from 1979-88 with a coming-and-going cast that included Cloris Leachman (shown at center in this photo) and Molly Ringwald (not shown), among others. Clooney appeared in the supporting role of George Burnett during the 1985-86 season.
A photo of George Clooney in the TV show Baby Talk. Clooney was in the show’s first season (1991-92) as a construction worker who dallied with the single mother of Mickey, the show’s talking baby. The baby was voiced by Tony Danza, and the whole shebang was loosely based on the hit film Look Who’s Talking (1989). Clooney, like most of the cast, was let go after the show’s first season.
