Good Times is one of the worst shows the black community ever had

[Born2BKing]

Glad that Bill Cosby stood for black people's best interests, even when he got shytted on by c00n ass nikkas for speaking the truth on how nikkas love ignorance and embrace substandard conditions as a badge of honor.

It wasn't the message people were offended by it was his audiences. My pops was pissed about it and not because of what he said because of all the white people he said it too

How about the Black Jesus Episode. That was the episode that made me stop watching. Florida was mad that Black Jesus was performing miracles and the White Jesus ain't do shyt for them.

People believe what they believe. Besides it was Ned the Wino anyhow.

And what opportunites did they pass up? Moving when james died? Moving when buddy boy broke his knee? What other legit opportunites did they pass up?

The job in Alaska? You selectively forgot that one

There were only a handful of 'Black' sitcoms to watch at that time, but NONE of them was as good as Good Times in it's portrayal of the 'Black' family.

That's My Momma
What's Happening
Sanford and Son
The Jeffersons

I watched 'em and laughed, but LIVED and understood Good Times.​

Well you're obviously a bumb ass nikka. I aint grow up with much but I never grew up with the mentality to settle. I fukked with The Jeffersons. George Jefferson was a real nikka. He got money, gave back to the hood, and took no shyt from white folks.

Sanford and Son was my shyt too. They lived a simple life but they aint c00n. Lamott was a cock blocking hater tho. This nikka stayed throwin salt Fred Sanfords game.

On one episode, James found about 10 g's that was lost during a grocery store robbery. He brought that shyt home, but Florida made him take it back. Everybody else wanted to keep the money. Even when Florida asked her preacher what to do, he was like

Florida wanted to make sure they stayed in poverty because James would leave her ugly ass if he ever came up

shyt just got really real with that post lol





now that i think about George jefferson was the realist nikka from that time.
nikka stayed calln crackers honkey and not in the joking way, but we all laughed

 

[PriceisRight]

Wrong. The job was for 1 year. Micheal was a teenager and had just gotten out of a gang. What man in his right mind would leave his family for a whole year in the Cabrini-Green Housing Projects of Chicago in the 70's?​

When you put it like that...

 

[DrX]

​

Show me where I posted that they had the mentality to 'settle', you puerile microcephalic troglodyte?

You have the reading comprehension of an amoeba.

do people realize that james' name was originally henry?

Only us 'Old Heads' that knew the show was a spin-off of 'Maude'.

Like 'Family Matters' was a spin-off of 'Perfect Strangers'.

[King Biko]

I don't agree I think James was a ok Example of a black man and father.

James was actually lucky to have a woman since dude never got past the 6th grade and didn't get his High School Diploma until Season 2.......18 years after he married her because he knocked her up.
