      @@wantq2000 That's because Norman Lear treated him like a simpleminded black, as he did everyone on that show. He didn't become 'nasty as fuck' just for the hell of it. He wanted to do more than just show them in the ghetto. He had scripts and ideas he bought to Lear to even showcase other things they could do but Lear dismissed it all and was borderline condescending. That's why he was becoming increasingly agitated. The CEO was a hypocrite, not to mention a hollywood liberal.

      ​​​​@@SouthSideLadyWright the idea and creator of the show good times was a black man named ERIC MONTE who Norman Leer stole from and didn't give him credit for Good Times nor The Jeffersons. Do your research. John Amos was FIRED from the show, (HE DIDN'T QUIT) because he kept complaining about JJs character getting all the spotlight. He even talks about how he was FIRED on a interview you can find on youtube. John Amos and Ester Rolle both hated on Jimmy Walker for that, that's why Ester Rolle left the show for a while but came back for the last season. Do your research before you make false comments about stuff you wrong about everything! Get your facts straight and quit assuming sh**!

      @@Palmetto-J "Duh" as you so eloquently put it (Harvard graduate are you or still in the 7th grade?). Buying on time is NOT leasing. They are not even REMOTELY related. When you buy on time, the store extends you credit, but you OWN the property. You just have to make monthly payments on it the same as you would if you bought furniture on your credit card today. Only if you miss payments, depending on how your contract reads, the store can repossess the items the same as a bank can do with a car loan. If its destroyed in a fire, too bad. You STILL have to make the payments. With leasing, you never own the property and the company that does can impose restrictions on use. Its just like a car lease today. Before credit cards became the norm, buying on time was a very popular and viable option, especially for more economically challenged families.

    Hypertension can actually cause hyper emotions and anger, at least in my experiences of close family members. Once they got it under control, the temperament change was noticeable. This turns out not to be the case for Papa Evans in this episode, however.

    I know it’s a TV show, but there was NO reason for James to scare his family that way. If he’s upset, b4 u go home, go for a walk, go to the bar, clear your head. My folks NEVER showed their moods around us. On a acting note, Mr. Amos threw the HELL outta that chair! Ha.
