A wealthy, carefree divorcé discovers that he's the father of a 12-year-old boy, who is naturally wise beyond his years. Rick Schroder, who spent the years following `Silver Spoons' living down the teen idol label that came with playing `The Rickster,' went on to major roles in 1989's `Lonesome Dove' and on `NYPD Blue' (as Det. Danny Sorenson).
  • Video Q&A: Ricky Schroder Talks Andromeda Strain and TV StepMILFs | Today's News: Our Take | 5/26/2008
    Ricky Schroder stopped by the other day to talk about The Andromeda Strain, A&E's two-night adaptation of the Michael Crichton novel. (Premiering Monday, May 26, the mini also stars Benjamin Bratt, Daniel Dae Kim and Andre Braugher.) Other topics of conversation include Schroder's run on 24 (was he being groomed to take over for Kiefer?) and my theory that Silver Spoons' Erin Gray was TV's first stepMILF. Enjoy! read more

  • NYPD Grad Takes Strong Medicine | Today's News: Our Take | 7/1/2005

    Rick Schroder had never worked as a doctor before taking on his role as foxy physician Dylan West on Lifetime's Strong Medicine (Sundays at 9 pm/ET), but the former child star did have some medical experience. After all, he's spent his entire career causing temperatures to rise.

    "I'll never forget how my sister and I would kiss the TV screen when Rick would come on in Silver Spoons," says his Medicine costar Rosa Blasi. "I told Rick that story when we met, and I think it made him really embarrassed."

    While the 35-year-old actor's teen-dream past does bring back some self-conscious memories — "I was uncomfortable at that time because I got acne and my voice was changing," he says modestly — Schroder admits to being pleased that his new role has injected some sex appeal into Medicine's sixth season.

  • Buck Rogers Hottie Returns! | Today's News: Our Take | 11/12/2004

    Before turning heads on Silver Spoons, Erin Gray was kickin' alien ass as Col. Wilma Deering on Buck Rogers in the 25th Century from 1979-81. Here, the '80s sex symbol recalls her adventures on the campy space opera, arriving Nov. 16 on DVD.

    TV Guide Online: You were the hottest-lookin' lady on TV in the '80s.
    Erin Gray:
    The South Park gentlemen [Trey Parker and Matt Stone] agree with you. They did a whole number on how no one was pretty as Col. Wilma. I owe them a thank-you for that.

    TVGO: Who was hotter: Gil Gerard's Buck or Sam Jones' Flash Gordon?
    Gray:
    Oh, god! I own a company, Heroes for Hire, booking celebrities on personal appearances, so you're asking me to comment on men I represent. But I have a soft spot in my heart for Gil. He truly gets me laughing, and humor wins out.

    TVGO: Twiki the robot: Gay or not?
    Gray:
    Oh, no way! He may've looked like a penis — how could you look read more
