The Gary Coleman Show

The Gary Coleman Show is a 30-minute Saturday morning animated series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions that originally aired on NBC during the 1982–1983 season. The series featured Gary Coleman as the voice of Andy LeBeau, an apprentice angel, who was dispatched back to Earth to earn his wings by helping others.

The show featured the voices of Gary Coleman, Lauren Anders, Jennifer Darling, Julie McWhirter Dees, Geoffrey Gordon, LaShana Dendy, Jerry Houser, Calvin Mason, Sidney Miller and Steve Schatzberg.

Synopsis
The character of Andy LeBeau was a spin-off character from Coleman's television film The Kid with the Broken Halo (1982). In each episode, Andy was dispatched to help a child in need and resolve his problem by his supervisor and fellow angel, Angelica. The antagonist in each episode was Hornswoggle, a demon that only Andy could see, who tried to make Andy's mission more difficult, usually by getting him to make the wrong choice or by otherwise complicating the mission. It was up to Andy to correct whatever mistakes he made and foil Hornswoggle's plans.

Later years
The Gary Coleman Show went into syndication when it aired on Cartoon Network in the 1990s and briefly on Boomerang in 2000. Due to Coleman's troubled problems since late 1998, it moved to Adult Swim in 2006. Its broadcast became much less frequent until it was never seen in reruns again. This program has yet to be released on the Boomerang app after regarding his negative reputation. As of 2023, no DVD release of this show is announced by Warner Bros. Discovery.
