In this clip, former child actor Todd Bridges reveals his experience with racism as a teenager and behind-the-scenes drama on the set of the sitcom "Diff'rent Strokes." Bridges shares that when he moved into a predominantly white San Fernando Valley neighborhood, he faced discrimination and even death threats, culminating in a cross-burning incident on his property. This harassment led him to leave the country for his safety. Bridges further divulges that as his notoriety grew, he found himself being manipulated and controlled by the showrunners. The pressure to stay on the show was intense, as a bid to become bigger than the show could have led to his departure, which was undesirable for the controllers of the show. He also blames Gary Coleman's parents for the show's ultimate cancellation. Bridges believes the show could have aired longer if it wasn't for the complications brought about by Coleman's parents, who demanded more money.
