I saw something about this on Facebook the other day (a page called “My Friend Andrew Koenig Is Missing,” I think), and I actually thought to myself, “SURELY that couldn’t be the Andrew Koenig who played Richard “Boner” Stabone on Growing Pains.” I did not click on the link. Anyway, I was wrong. Andrew Koenig—best known for playing Mike Seaver’s BFF, Richard “Boner” Stabone, on Growing Pains—has been missing since February 14:
Andrew Koenig, the 41-year-old former “Growing Pains” actor who has been missing since February 14, has suffered from depression, according to statements from his family and law enforcement officials.
“Andrew has recently been despondent, and his family and friends are concerned for his well-being,” Vancouver police said in a statement released Sunday, CNN reports.
“Andrew was suffering from depression at the time of his disappearance,” the family said in a statement.
Via mtv.com. Read the rest of the story here. According to Wikipedia, Koenig was a producer on the very excellent Jimmy Pardo podcast Never Not Funny. I hope he turns up soon.


He usually comes back after about 20 minutes.
Sorry.
Also, Chekov’s son? Who knew?
Wait wait wait, since I’m already an asshole… what I MEANT to say was: Usually if you just relax, he’ll turn up.
Do I have to say “sorry” again, or does a lame second post negate the sentiment?
Dougsf, you’re an awful person and should be deeply ashamed of yourself. Feel better?
doug, it takes your little guy TWENTY MINUTES to be readyagain? How sad / old are you bwahaha
I’d want to disappear for a while too if my hair looked like that.
#3 and #4 and the other groans that groaned while I was tyoing – I’d feel bad if anyone here was actually helping the effort, but since the only people here are terrible, terrible joke readers and joke typers, I feel nothing. Plus, I stopped after two, which was asking the world of me.
Also, people that type “bwahahaha” only see Comic Sans.
Kirk Cameron kidnapped him and has him tied up in his basement as a sex slave!!
@4 you are such a douchnozzle. you’ll be old someday whippersnapper!
I’m far more worried about a local writer’s kid going missing up in Vancouver BC …
I would also kill myself if everyone still called me boner after all of these years. Hopefully he is just holed up somewhere with skippy from family ties.
@1/2
You are an *awesome* person and should be totally proud of yourself. Great sense of humor! I’m still giggling over here.
Let’s hope he does something about that hair before he turns up.
With that headline, I now have the song “Detachable Penis” by King Missile running through my head…..
Koenig is also known for his creepy portrayal of the Joker in the fanfilm “Batman: Dead End”…

I’d be depressed too if I passed up a chance to do cocaine with sluts in a hot tub when I was a teenager.
Only episode of that show I remember.
