Dixie Carter, who set in motion not one, but two shark jumping moments on Diff’rent Strokes, has died at the age of 70. The southern belle is best remembered as Julia Sugarbaker, strong-willed head of an Atlanta interior design company prone to tart liberal diatribes, and for being married to Mark Twain. In other appearances, she won an Emmy for guest appearances on Desperate Housewives, and married Philip Drummond on Diff’rent Strokes, bringing with her the cousin Oliver-esque son Sam to compensate for the deteriorating cuteness of Gary Coleman, then bolting the series after 2 years to be replaced by Mary Ann Mobley.
