Penny (Good Times) or
Charlene (Diff'rent Strokes)

[Cool 55]

Penny was so cool on good times

[Tiger32]

I have to go with Penny, only because I barely remember Charlene. But I remember Penny having a huge crush on J.J.

[LAVA610]

I remember the cute episodes of Janet and Todd Bridges, then the sad episode of Ms. Fields as the abusive mother with the iron and all, had to hide that show from my moms so she wouldn't get any ideas !!Peace :wave:

Penny - Young and Cute
Charlene - Sexy

Yeah, Penny. But I loved all of Janet Jackson's characters. You know Penny might be the only "Cousin Oliver" kid I liked. (You know what I mean those kids that come on a show near the end of its run to boost ratings) Penny was the only good one. By the way one of the worst is the Sam McKenny character from Diff'rent Strokes.

Penny, I liked her better on Good Times, especially when she sang and with Ralph Carter.

[Sophia's Wrinkles]

I'm gonna have to go with Penny. :D

I like them both, but I'll go with Charlene.

I liked them both because they were at different stages of her life and career.

Penny by default. Never saw her as Charlene. Wasn't Janet Jackson also a cast member of Fame at one point??

Yes, back in the mid-80's, Janet Jackson was a cast member of Fame. Did you watch that show? That was one of my favorites back then, too.

I'm not that familiar with the TV series Fame (though I have seen the movie several times), only the earliest episodes. I don't recall seeing any Janet Jackson episodes.

Catlover79, Janet Jackson (Charlene) and Todd Bridges (Willis) made such a cute couple on "Different Strokes." I always loved it when Janet appeared on the show as his girlfriend, Charlene. :D

[ThomasE]

As a kid, I never realized that was her until later. I was like, "oh, ok". LOL.

Probably because on Diffrent Strokes her hair was down and her body was oh nevermind-lol-lol

I find it unnerving that her boyfriend on the show ,Todd Bridges looked just like her brother Michael did at the time.......................:eek:

[catlover79]

Charlene, by a land slide. I agree with Solomon on the Penny character on Good Times, defintely, not a highlight of the show.
I'd take Penny any day over Sam McKinney!! :eek:

[hatwink]

I liked both characters, but Penny was a kid, and well, Charlene was hot.
