George Burnett was played by 'George Clooney' from 1985 to 1987.

In 1985, Edna's Edibles burned down and it had to be rebuilt. The girls discovered a Kuwaiti newspaper on their front step which was delivered to the wrong address. This wrong address turned out to be George Burnett, a guy who works in a hardware shop with his father who likes to keep up with the news in the Middle East. When they find out that he is a handyman, they hire him to rebuilt the store. Of course, he slacks off and is fired, but he returns to the shop from time to time and hangs out with the girls (and to get his newspaper). In 1987, he quits his job at the hardware store and becomes a roadie for a singer named Cinnamon.
