True, I'm approaching irrational behavior "rationally". And, as noted elsewhere, Erin has to admit she has major problems. Til that happens, her freefall will continue, and maybe worsen.Carmine5 said:

Report: Erin Moran Homeless
- Thread starter RicoGregg
- Start date
If one looks at Erin Moran's bio, they will notice that besides "Happy Days" she also appeared in a number of motion pictures. Again I doubt very much that she was paid minimum wage.
The Screen Actors Guild (SAG) successfully negotiated with major studios and the owners of television networks that an actor receives a certain amount of money, for even a walk-on role, with higher wages for those actors who speak even a few lines of dialog.
It would not surprise me to hear a news report or read on the internet that Ms. Moran has entered a rehab clinic or some other institution to deal with her problems.
If you think that Erin Moran is bad off considered Mike Tyson. During his reign as Heavyweight Champion it was reported on a TV special dealing with athletes and money that Tyson made $400 million dollars during his boxing career. Today Tyson is lucky if he has enough money to buy a box of cereal.

It's really sad she's had to go down this way. But LOOK at her. Hard drugs are also a factor. And her avoidance of all who tried to help her is another major indicator of that.
Right now is a GLORIOUS opportunity for Erin. There are people reading this story who REALLY want to reach out to her...IF she's ready to get serious about it. But that means changing her ways. And MASSIVE changes at that. And it's also a limited time offer. Soon even the tabloids will find somebody else to talk about.
I hope she isn't so delusional as to think all this recent attention is a "comeback" - it's a dying gasp.
She may even have a future yet in acting if she can pull herself together. But she has to make that call on her own.....

It would not surprise me in the least if some cable TV network offered Moran her own reality show.
If a network can make money, they will do it. Look at the big $ the supermarket tabloids make.Bongwater said:
Moran needs the cash.
The Voice of Reason said:
She needs the cash. But cash alone won't solve her problem. Cash alone will only exacerbate it. That was my point. She needs a total paradigm shift in her life to bring her back to her senses. To just put her on TV and exploit her situation further for the larger profit of a network isn't a real, lasting solution to her situation right now.
Type "Erin Moran" on freerepublic.com and you'll discover that the house she and her hubby had foreclosed was in Palmdale, CA, near Edwards AFB (per the L.A. Times) and the trailer park they wound up in was in New Salisbury, IN, 25 miles west of Louisville, KY (per the N.Y. Post). Is Moran a native Indianan?
Helen Hunt was mentioned earlier on this thread. Who else remembers seeing her in the fall of '77 on CBS's The Fitzpatricks, about a Irish Catholic family, sort of a Waltons set in the Rust Belt? Hunt played Kerry, a neighbor girl who flirted with the two older Fitzpatrick boys (played by Clark Brandon and Jimmy McNichol [brother of Kristy, then playing Buddy on ABC's Family]). Having Irish Catholic roots on my mother's father's side, this then 11th-grader naturally watched The Fitzpatricks *sometimes* (when not watching HD and L&S which were opposite and no doubt killed it).
Fast forward to 1983, I'm in my extra year of college, and that's when I next saw Ms. Hunt - playing a HS homecoming queen/backup quarterback in an NBC TV movie whose name escapes me.
Prayers for Ms. Moran and her husband and his mother.

Henry Winkler is trying to get her a roll on "Arrested Development", but who knows if she's up for the rigors of filming a series. Hope this works out but I won't be surprised if it doesn't happen at all.
