    Did Gary Coleman think he was 'God's punching bag?'

    Back in 1978, when Gary Coleman was 10 years old, author Scott Peck published his book, "The Road Less Traveled." One of his famous quotes is, "Life is difficult. This is a great truth, one of the greatest truths. It is a great truth because once we truly see this truth, we transcend it."

    Gary Coleman had a difficult life and he had a hard time transcending it. He once questioned if he was "God's punching bag." He had an illness requiring him to have a kidney transplant when he was only five, and medication which gave him a puffy face and an adult shortness of only 4 feet 7 inches.

    Even though I never met him I had a connection. Back when IMDb still had discussion threads Coleman and I ended up commenting on the same thread and we also directed comments to each other. Nice comments and I remember thinking how unusual it was to be trading messages with a famous actor.

    Now, seeing this biographical sketch streaming on Peacock, I understand what was happening to Coleman during his 30s and beyond. No longer the childhood star he found it increasingly difficult to get acting roles. He had living expenses, he resorted to several things including working as a security guard, a job that landed him in court after punching someone who made a rude comment.

    Coleman's difficulties were compounded by the people around him, even though by one count he was paid $18Million over his glory years several people skimmed money, including his parents, and as a struggling adult saw most of the money gone. With good financial management he should have been set for life.

    Coleman was smart and articulate but in many ways also immature. He put too much trust in others and did not take enough interest in his own business until it was too late.

    This program uses many old clips of Coleman himself, some on TV shows or movies, some as himself in interviews. Plus clips from interviews with his parents, agents, and friends. I found it interesting and a worthwhile viewing.

    What is this documentary talking about?

    There's something very uncomfortable about this documentary on the turbulent life of the precocious talent that was Gary Coleman. For a generation he was loved wherever his flagship show "Different Strokes" was shown, and broke down various barriers without even needing to try but just be himself.

    The reality was that behind the curtains, it was all another story and this documentary is meant to be trying to reveal the reality. However, as Gary Coleman has passed away, we are left to rely on a series of contributors whom we are wholly left mostly unconvinced by their sincerity or honesty in their recalling of the young man.

    It makes the entire documentary difficult watch, as we know that he was a maturing male stuck in the body of young boy.

    Like many others, I was charmed by Gary Coleman in his heyday and loved his exuberance & humour. Sad to see how life transpired for him and certain of his peers.

    This documentary probably on what they had on hand, should have been buried. If it's meant to reveal the truth, I'm not sure any judge would be able to give a final judgement on what was presented.

    Give this a miss I think, and really maybe now let's leave Gary Coleman to rest in peace.

    Stuck In Height & A Hit TV Show . . . .

    I've read about Gary Coleman throughout the years, but never had much interest in him, and never watched his TV show. Thus, I did not know if I would watch this entire documentary. I ended up having no problem watching it until the end. The doc moved along nicely and wasn't repetitious. It does offer some good insight into his life, but not enough to make it more than a sympathetic look, lacking in critical observations.

    For example, why did Gary Coleman choose to marry the woman he married and still live with her after they divorced? She was a not-too-bright user who hit him, just as he hit her. With his fame and medical condition, he could have easily found a kind, nurturing woman, such as a nurse, to marry; who would have dedicated her life to supporting and taking care of him. Did he want to keep feeling like a victim, and replay over and over again the way he felt others used him?

    His parents were interviewed and they weren't portrayed as the demons some think they were. His first agent was interviewed and he also did not come across badly. His best friend was constantly interviewed, and there seemed nothing nefarious about their friendship, even though his father had his suspicions. The only one who came across badly was his ex-wife, but I somewhat doubt she was responsible for his death. The two of them were a trainwreck waiting to happen, and you don't need a person to cause a trainwreck.

    Gary Coleman was so much more

    I've got mixed feelings about this documentary. Partly because it's stated multiple times throughout that he wanted peace and to leave celebrity behind. But, the true point of it was to show just how talented he was and that he was so much more than his infamous character Arnold. He was let down by so many people, including the public, who refused to see him any other way.

    This documentary highlights his health condition, his talent, his relationships, and the people who either truly or possibly loved him. That's for each one of us watching to decide. I'm leaving it with the point of the documentary. He was so very talented and it was so unfortunate that he never had the opportunity to show us his full range.

    GONE TOO SOON...!

    A 2024 doc about the short, successful but ultimately life of one Gary Coleman. Being probably one of the most recognizable & successful young actors of his generation when he got his role on Diff'rent Strokes (a groundbreaking sitcom which posited a white rich man who adopts 2 black kids) where his catchphrase 'whatcha talking about...?' became a pop culture trigger but after his own health issues (his kidney transplant at a young age pretty much stunted his growth & kept him perennially diminutive), the sheen of his role soon wore on him. Another personal issue would come about when his parents annexed Coleman's monies for failed ventures which prompted him to sue them partnered w/his questionable nuptials w/a much younger & to be honest immature woman leaving the last few years of life anything but pleasant. Using talking head interviews w/the people who knew him & copious clips of the man himself, you can't help but feel sympathy for this man who gave so much of himself to entertain others.

      Gary Coleman: Celebrity's always a burden. I don't care who you are. I don't care how much you claim you like it. You're stuck with it for life. You're gonna die a celebrity. Even if you haven't worked in 20 years.
