Being that she was singer as well as the tony Orlando and dawn lady, I'd said yep she did a great job.😊
Addy was mad pretty🔥🔥🔥❤
This show should have been called "Give me a hug" there were more hugs on this show than any other and Nell just looks huggable. Rosetta played Nell's mother on here and she played with Thelma Hopkins again on Family matters.
Nell's TV mom and Addy were on Family Matters also. Would have been great if Nell could have joined that cast too.

They were not a lesbian couple. They were best friends since childhood who became roommates. They both date men. Nell was married and divorced... always flirting or chasing after some Guy (usually an ex-boyfriend). Addy was engaged once and dates men. SMH. The two actresses were also best friends Off Camera.
