After What’s Happening!! was canceled in 1979, Spencer segued away from acting and attended UC Davis to earn a degree in veterinary science. She later went on to Tuskegee University Veterinary School in Tuskegee, Alabama and became a veterinarian in 1996.

That is so cool.

When I was a kid I thought that show was hilarious, especially her and Rerun.

Same here, they were part of my afternoon routine. Their funniest moment? The dang Doobie Brothers guest starring. I was like...huh? I never really respected them after 'cause real bands didn't guest star on syndicated shows to my teen mind.

I wonder what their booking agent thought at the first call?
