He Lived Every Kid’s Dream! Snakkle Catches Up With Ricky Stratton And The Cast Of Silver Spoons, 31 Years Later!
For five seasons, Silver Spoons brought laughs with the hilarious antics of Ricky and his wealthy father, Edward Stratton III.

Alfonso Ribeiro as Alfonso Spears on Silver Spoons
Like Joel Higgins, Alfonso’s fist acting role was in a Broadway musical. Soon after, he got his first TV role in Silver Spoons and played Ricky Stratton’s breakdancing best friend, Alfonso Spears. He also appeared in a Pepsi commercial with Michael Jackson that same year. Following the end of the hit ‘80s sitcom, Ribeiro went on to become even more famous by playing spoiled rich kid Carlton Banks in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
