It was Different Strokes with Willis and Arnold (Gary Coleman's character). I can't remember who played Willis, but Dana Plato was "Kimberly" and died of an accidental drug overdose. And, I remember the young man playing Willis got into some trouble-criminal charges of some sort. People were calling it the Different Strokes Curse for a while.

DIFFERENT STROKES WAS THE SHOW. COLEMAN PLAYED ARNOLD. IT WAS A REALLY CUTE SHOW. SO SAD ALL THE TRAGEDY THAT STRUCK THE LIVES OF THE CHILDREN. DANA PLATO DIED FROM AN OVER DOSE. TODD BRIDGES HAD MANY RUN INS WITH THE LAW. GARY COLEMAN HAS ALSO HAD SOME PROBLEMS WITH THE LAW. HE SUPPOSEDLY SLAPPED A FAN.

The show you are asking about was "Diff'rent Strokes" and this was, truly, television at its finest hours (please note heavy sarcasm ...). Gary Coleman played Arnold and his famous line was "Whatcha talkin' 'bout, Willis??????"
