He's this "huge" man, and he's an American actor: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Coleman

There's a great reference to that quote in a Christmas Simpsons epsiode about Funzo the toy where Coleman says "What you talking about Miss Naegle"

I have vaguely heard of him now reading his Wikipedia article. He did buy Sonic Adventure 2 Battle so he can't be bad.

Even better was the way he ended the episode?

'What you talking 'bout Homer? What you talking 'bout EVERYBODY!'

A nice Christmas sentiment!

Yeah that was hilarious, and when Homer asked him to come over for dinner:
"No way, I'm going to George Clooney's house"

He hasn't had anything in the way of a career in like what, 15 years? Why are people buying it for so much. Also on ebay, everyone with a sharpie marker and a photo can be Gary Coleman, even though it is probably him.

Anyone remeber the time in diffr'nt strokes when he stole the comic book? Classic.

You're such a cynic! I know Gary Coleman...he and I lunched with Jennifer Aniston this time last year......it's definitely him.

Remember that episode with the comic book...great stuff. He learned a VALUABLE LESSON by the end of it.
