It is with enormous pleasure that we announce Erica Gimpel is the final cast member to Join #fameukreunion. Erica played the wonderfully energetic and positive triple threat Coco Hernandez in seasons 1, 2 and 3 of “Fame” from 1982 to 1987. Returning as a guest star in the season 4 “Coco Returns”. Erica was attending the real school of the arts when she first started working on “Fame” and missed a few episodes in season 1 so she could return to New York to graduate.
After “Fame” Erica has had a long and varied career on stage, in films and on television. She was a star in “Profiler”, “E.R.”, “Veronica Mars”, “Boston Legal” and “Grey’s Anatomy” to name just a few. She was a judge on the Irish TV talent show “Fame: The Musical” and also released her self penned album “Spread Your Wings and Fly”. Erica continues acting and performing and releasing music. It’s very exciting to have Erica on board with us.

Tom Sullivan makes the first of 2 guest appearances. Did anyone spot that in this episode he's called Jim Landon but when he returns in season 3 he is called Jim Hamilton!?
