Reply to comment by Serling45 in The "Eight Is Enough" kids turned out poorly: TV child stars who never made it by Lili_Danube

I thought his motorcycle accident was after the first Star Wars movie.

After filming the movie but before the movie came out and before the season run for Eight is Enough started filming. So, they let him out of the contract and got Grant Goodeve to play the part.

That was a car accident.
