I never saw this show at the time, but seeing Leif Garrett brings back memories. When I was a 12-13 year old boy, I went through a phase of buying Teen Beat and other teen idol magazines. Those were the days of Leif Garrett and Shaun Cassidy. I'm not sure it even occurred to me at first that these magazines were aimed mostly at girls. I just liked them. My older step-sister laughed when she found out, and God knows what my parents thought. In retrospect, it was probably one of the earliest signs of much that was to come in my life.

I worked with Leif on a recording project in the 80s. I thought he was a good guy at that time. I never thought fame went to his head. Sad to see the troubles that came after.

I think being at such a tender impressionable age, being told your so wonderful and afforded all the excesses by sleazy predatory adults who just wanted a piece of what they could get out of him... It would mess up any kid. It certainly messed up a lot, especially during that era. Add on top of it parents that used their children as the primary bread winner and you've got a recipe for absolute disaster.

That was not his intention. A friend told him when he set fire to his house then panicked and put it out, he was only caught putting it out and was hailed a hero. So he wanted to replicate that, but it went wrong, the house set fire too quickly and he was unable to put it out. So he got everyone out instead, and admitted to it.
