I had the pleasure of meeting John around 15 years ago in the uk. What a welcoming and lovely man he was. He spent lots of time chatting and answering questions and we have a brilliant photo together. He also showed big respect to my family - Lovely man 💔 RIP Big guy and yes I prefer the big mick to the Big Mac 😊🙏🏻
U said exactly what l have been thinking. He died over a month ago... Why is he and his transitioning to the spirit world being acknowledged more than a month later?....
@@memberofjerusalem6330 there is something fishy going on. his son seems involved. most of his family found out of his death the same way and day you and i found out.
Yeah that was pissing me off right now because I am devastated that he passed and I'm just now hearing about it and f****** October going into September. I'm sorry for being profane but I'm just freaking angry right now I know about James Earl Jones going in but not knowing that John Amos went in in August
R.I.P. John Amos 😢🌹 I seen Good Times today and I seen him in Die Hard 2 and I think I seen him in Coming to America, I love him in Die Hard 2. Die Hard 2 is a great movie.
@@timothymoffett1258 What makes it even worse is that this year 2024, marked the show’s 50th anniversary. This should’ve been a time where we got a proper reboot, or at least one that was more respectful. Unfortunately John was still mortal, so his passing isn’t something that could’ve been controlled but this milestone anniversary has been plagued by darkness
His daughter believes there was some foul play, as his son had been keeping him isolated from the rest of the family. His publicist also pretended to be his daughter when they went to the ER the night John died, which is suspicious. After reading the daughter (Shannon Amos) statement signed by the rest of the family and friends of John, it really seems that some foul play was involved😢
Roots was so powerful to my family that my grandpa would go to work and not talk to anybody Caucasian for months after a episode. This was back in the day you gotta imagine a blk man watching that show in the 70’s the scenes it showed brought up real anger back then some people will never forget what was done and lay and wait for the day of get back thats facts
I remember Roots and my favorite episode on Goodtimes is when that kid Eddie was bullying Michael and then spent the weekend with the Evan’s. James really gave it to Eddie when he got out of line for not listening to him.
Maybe he did not want it announced right away. I remember reading Beth Howland from Alice did not want her death in 2015 announced until several months after she died. Robin
I remember in a Episode of Good Times James Evans sr wanted to get revenge on Mad dog and his thugs for shooting his son JJ. He had a Pretzel stick and told Florida " This is Mad dog's Finger Snap! He broke the pretzel stick meaning he's going to break Mad dog's Finger bone if he tries something He showed him who's Boss!
Rest in peace to one of my favorite tv fathers along with Bill Cosby… Thanks for being such a inspiration to me that the devil 😈 feared married people so much that he had to literally kill him off the show so more of us would fail with our kids and nephews and nieces, but God didn’t let it happen!!! 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
His character in Good Times scared me a bit when I was a kid, but oh, boy! What an amazing actor. He will be sorely missed.
He said he mimic his father sternness and loving for his character on Good Times
RIP to the goat of favorite tv dads 🙏

R.i.p John amos thank you for playing the dad everyone needed and for being a powerful force in the roles you did you will be missed
I wholeheartedly feel like my father died all over again. This man literally raised me coming up in the 70s. This definitely hits different
Damn Damn Damn😢
He will never ever be forgotten. I still watch Good times in the morning!
Good Times is becoming Good Death.
Rest in peace Mr. Amos. My favorite TvDad! My favorite role was James from Good Times.
I still watch good times up until like the 3rd season when he was no longer on the show. He was definitely like a father figure .
John Allen Amos Jr. (December 27, 1939 - August 21, 2024) we are just now hearing about his passing.

'Someone Loves You Here'
Louis Gossett Jr. also died early this year who was also in Good Times.

Biopic on John Amos should be played by: Jonathan Majors.
I was thinking Shannon Sharpe
Wow so the only cast surviving are the children of good times right?
And Penny

R.I.P. Amen
I sure hate that Good Times has been in the media lately for two bad reasons. First the god awful Netflix reboot, and now the loss of John Amos/James
Boy was that reboot awful! 😒

So sad😢
l am trying to understand why brother John Amos death was mentioned and acknowledged over a month after he crossed over to the spirit world?.
His daughter believes there was some foul play, as his son had been keeping him isolated from the rest of the family. His publicist also pretended to be his daughter when they went to the ER the night John died, which is suspicious. After reading the daughter (Shannon Amos) statement signed by the rest of the family and friends of John, it really seems that some foul play was involved😢
Now both Amos and Louis Gossett Jr. died this year. Both in Good Times and Roots.
Im trippin didnt he die in August and they are all talking about it in October? RIP
He is truly missed
You mean he been dead. He died August 21st. Still thanks for the memories. RIP John Amos 🕊️you will be never forgotten
Two Coming to America cast members are dead in a row. What a mess it was!
Roots was so powerful to my family that my grandpa would go to work and not talk to anybody Caucasian for months after a episode. This was back in the day you gotta imagine a blk man watching that show in the 70’s the scenes it showed brought up real anger back then some people will never forget what was done and lay and wait for the day of get back thats facts
Rip Brother!!
RIP ❤
Rip
He was a great actor I'm sorry to hear you passed away
JOHN AMOS GOOD ACTOR WILL BE MISSED 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 FOR HIS FAMILY, FRIENDS AND FAMILY.😢😢🎉🎉
To this day I use the phrase, "We had better conditions than this in Korea!" and no one knows what I am talking about. Stay hard Mr. Amos.
so sad:( liked him. R.I.P
I remember Roots and my favorite episode on Goodtimes is when that kid Eddie was bullying Michael and then spent the weekend with the Evan’s. James really gave it to Eddie when he got out of line for not listening to him.
this one hits differently 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲
RIP John Amos 💔🙏🏾🥀🪦🕊️
Rip James 🕊️
He died two months ago why report it now ?
He’s been dead since August why are they saying something now?
Maybe he did not want it announced right away. I remember reading Beth Howland from Alice did not want her death in 2015 announced until several months after she died. Robin
I love Good Times tv 📺 series.
I remember in a Episode of Good Times James Evans sr wanted to get revenge on Mad dog and his thugs for shooting his son JJ. He had a Pretzel stick and told Florida " This is Mad dog's Finger Snap! He broke the pretzel stick meaning he's going to break Mad dog's Finger bone if he tries something He showed him who's Boss!
🙏🏿❤️
