@@SharonBradford-r5z I got a notification from People magazine yesterday, which made me think he just died. In fact, I just Googled him and you're right. Why I'm just finding out, I don't know. And even other sites are just now mentioning it. Not that I was close to him, but I wish I had known sooner. Ok... I really wish he were still here. 😪
James Evans was a good man. He only blew up because he couldn't get the breaks in life that he deserved. We need fathers like James Evans to keep these kids who's out here running wild.
The show was never the same after John Amos left, and after I found out why Norman Lear fired him, I respected him even more. Sometimes, you've got to stand up for what you know is right.
@@butters395 Yep... That's exactly why she left the show. She said that when they asked her to return to the show to save it, she told them that the only way that she would, is if the writers would stop having Jimmie acting like a clown, and they agreed. You'll notice in the last season when Esther came back, Jimmie didn't yell DY-NO-MITE once.
It touched alot of people because it was so real 💯 She had to entertain people but hold her hurt for her husband even if it is a show . It hurted a lot of people . I was little now I've had been understanding this episode. 😢 God less
I like James Evans. He is what every father should be. There are some TV fathers who really discpline their children especially boys. Boys really need their fathers to see what's like to be a real man. George Jefferson is also a good father figure. Mike Brady on the Brady Bunch also, Carl Winslow on Family Matters also and more. Back during the 50's 60's and 70's fathers were in their homes raising their children. Now they have gone missing like they don't even care.
If you watch the full episode about Cletus, the way James handled him is exactly how he’d easily overwhelm of Gen Z. However, in the end I know he’d still give warm love and kindness if you earned it. Like in many episodes, James met almost everyone with kindness unless you acted foolish
I once had a Mississippi girfriend with the same beautific qualities. When she rolled her head back with those gorgeous high cheeks, it was like a prisim of heavenly light,: the eyes, the cheeks and her broad, toothy smile created a great and intensive womanly beauty.

James Evans, Carl Winslow, Heathcliff Huxtable, and Phillip Banks aka Uncle Phil. With Fathers like these the Black Community thrived even in the midst of struggle!!! 💯💯💯
Where is my favorite episode of James on The Debutante Ball Episode where James Was Defending JJ. It’s The one where James Said “NO NO JUNIOR THIS IS YOUR HOME THIS ONE PLACE YOU DON’T AND RUN FROM NOBODY NOW COME BACK HERE.” And he says “NO SUCCESS ISN’T A DIRTY IS FORGETTING, FORGETTING WHERE YOU CAME FROM BROTHER.” JAMES DESERVES A GRAMMY AWARD AFTER THAT EPISODE RIGHT THERE.
Good Times and What's Happening was the Realistic family show ever 😂😂 ❤❤ Thats why we love them . Every relationship is not perfect but you have to make it work . He made sure he took care of them. Them 😊 the script was good but to kill him off ! Yalll dumb😢
If James was Eddie, Laura and Judy's father, he would've spanked Eddie for mouthing off, He would've spanked Steve for damaging his home and trying to flirt with laura, and fussed Steve's parents out for how they treated him
James Evans, my tv dad ❤
James Evans was every inner city kid's tv father. 🕊️🙏🏽🌻☮️♥️♥️🌹
Happy 84th Birthday John Amos. 🎂
At least he saw his birthday.
He unfortunately just passed away. 😢

@@evonza4858 My point exactly.
Yup! Could never catch a damn break. And the prayers to God?
I wasn’t happy to see it all the time.
The show was never the same after John Amos left, and after I found out why Norman Lear fired him, I respected him even more.

Wrong!!! Jimmie walker and bernadette made the sitcom funny!!!
@@AngelHoll Then why did the ratings fall off so much after John Amos left, even though Jimmie and Bernadette were still there?
@jamesorsby7553 without jimmie and bernadette no show!!!
jj was too much of a buffoon...it seems most of his script was written to say..DY NO MITE ! even esther rolle didn't like it 😒

💔🙏🏼He was my favorite TV dad.
Loved Florida's sarcasm when she caught james 😂😂😂
Mr. Amos is a great actor. Happy Birthday Mr. Amos. I keep enjoying your movies.
James Evans didn't play he was the real deal
My favorite _Good Times_ episode of ALL TIME. 3:41 It is IMPOSSIBLE for me to watch this episode completely dried eyed....
It touched alot of people because it was so real 💯 She had to entertain people but hold her hurt for her husband even if it is a show . It hurted a lot of people . I was little now I've had been understanding this episode. 😢 God less
John Amos greatest example of what a father really is.❤️💯
James always cracks me up when he laughs: “ahehehehe lol😆
This is the Realistic family show that everyone can relate ❤❤
Rest in peace John Amos. We miss you. 😢
What a face John Amos had. Like a king.
That's why he was in Coming to America one and two🥰👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
James Evans was the epitome of standing on business.
That was definitely my daddy growing up. Continued Rest in Paradise King 🙏🏿
Loved Florida's laugh 😢

John Amos Was the Greatest I Love Him
12:20 you don't put that glass down you gonna die in this living room LOL
Love James Amos😂
He Really Was a Great Guy a Nice Guy He just wanted the best for his family

This just reminds me how much I missed John Amos on Good Times. A travesty 😢
Great Actor Series.
Florida's Smile at 7:22, I'll put Her up against Any top Model or Actress of Any Era. Something Beautiful.🌹
I once had a Mississippi girfriend with the same beautific qualities. When she rolled her head back with those gorgeous high cheeks, it was like a prisim of heavenly light,: the eyes, the cheeks and her broad, toothy smile created a great and intensive womanly beauty.
There ain't no might, you know I'm right. This show was.,.......... Dynamite !!
Great show! Lead by the father
That episode with James confronting his run away father was a real tear jerker.
James is my real life dad.
Florida's face after "OH ! James?" gets me everytime😂
Baby this is December Jackson😂😂😂😂
One of my favorite episodes lol! The way he let go of her coat had me rolling!
@@DarlingNikki2 Yeah...me, too. LOL Oh...and remember this: "Willona...princess running mouth." HAHAHAHAHA
I always thought that James was so handsome
CORRECTION he STILL is handsome 🥰👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️💚💛💜💙
Focused on the father on the show a lot even after he died wasn't the same anymore Florida Evans eventually married to Carl Dixon in Arizona

Amen a real father. 🙏 And he didn't play . ❤❤❤
RIP John Amos. The show went downhill, after they let him go.
Rest on james
This is THE ERIC MONTE EFFECT.
Eric Monte and Mike Evans aka the original Lionel from the Jeffersons who wrote himself and his family into the show 🥰👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 genius 😉💙💜💛💚❤️
The Eric Monte Effect. The Eric Monte Archives.
Yes they were and rocky and Adrian in the movies
You don't put that glass down you gon die in your living room. 😂😂😂
Next Father's Day they'll remember the late great John Amos
The best thing James did was give his kids what he wished he had.
This cast should',ve been close together they let norman lear break them up. Johnmos played the glue on this show.
RIP John Amos
I Didn't Like Good Times When My Boy John Amos Left
Jimmie walker and bernadette made the sitcom funny!!!
no @@AngelHoll
Rest in peace James oct 1 2024
John Amos Was the Best

Florida is so funny coping James's laugh.
Sister Judy Pace ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
RiP John Amos
John Amos got pushed out the back door like an unwanted sap. Norman Lear was unkind. He was the sap.
I Didn't Blame John Amos at all For Not Wanted to See His Dead Beat Father
Rip to Mr john amos
John Amos children were by his side even before his passing
RIP John Amos.
What episode did James Evans have on the yellow construction hat with his name on it???
Florida: James plants don’t blossom on muscatel
James: No but I do. Them plants can continue to get high on fertilizer
John Amos Was The Greatest
This episode was when James Evans came face to face with the man who disappeared from his family happens to be his alleged father
💎
The Eric monte effect
Ditto marvinwhittaker!

Lets really give credit to Eric Monte.... the REAL genius whose creative ideas were STOLEN by Norman Lear 🙃
Don't forget about Mike Evans (Rip)
John Amos left cause the same thing they doing with this Netflix cartoon
TashiaHe😢
Can
Carl was way better than James.
Carl was Carl and James was James.
How was Carl, _ better than James??.
That ridiculous...James had Carl beat 💯
If James was Eddie, Laura and Judy's father, he would've spanked Eddie for mouthing off, He would've spanked Steve for damaging his home and trying to flirt with laura, and fussed Steve's parents out for how they treated him
Clean it up, James. Clean it up.🧹
James evans was a good dad he sacrificed for his family. Wore the same Clothes everyday.
Agreed esp for his beautiful daughter bernadette!!!
