My Take
Adam Rich leaves me a little melancholy. As Nicholas on Eight Is Enough he became America's little brother, that pageboy haircut beaming out of living rooms for five seasons. But child stardom is a brutal trade, and his later years carried the weight the spotlight so often hands its youngest favorites. He died in 2023 at just 55. I try to hold both truths at once: the genuine warmth he brought to a generation of viewers, and the quiet difficulty that followed. He earned his place in television memory, and I'd rather remember the smile.
