Allison Smith: The Kim Richards of the '80's?

[D-Dey]

Did anybody notice that in the later seasons of Kate & Allie, Allison Smith looked a great deal like kim Richards? I sure did. Tell me if you noticed this too.

I don't really see the resemblance, she never had the really long hair like Kim Richards.

TJ,
I know Allison never grew her hair as long as Kim, but I saw Allison on Oprah once, during a show focusing on kid actors, and I swore it was Kim. If you need further proof check out thelinks to the photos below;

I know, it's one of the ones you've got on the Hello, Larry page, but look at that and the other, and tell me you don't see a resemblance.

Neither of the links you posted work so I can't comment on them but Kim Richards fans from the late 70's/early 80's would be able to notice the difference I think..

You name yourself "factsoflife" and you've got no idea who Kim Richards was?(j/k). The gorgeous Ruthie from "Hello, Larry?" Walt Disney's 1970's answer to Hayley Mills? The former princess of Witch Mountain who went on to play in sub-standard teen movies? Perhaps those of you on the Hello, Larry board would like to fill this person in.
