US Egg Posted October 1 Posted October 1 (edited) He, along with Esther Rolle, were the real stars of Good Times, Dyn-o-mite aside. 🙄 Their portrayals convincingly conveyed the family situation Norman Lear wanted America to see. His was a pioneering type of roll as well as a TV show. Edited October 1 by US Egg 2 Quote

Saxum Posted October 1 Posted October 1 3 hours ago, Gregg said: TMZ on X: "'Good Times' star John Amos has died 💔 #RIP https://t.co/ZjMrKhRGrZ" / X There have been so many false death posts on TwitterX I do not pay attention but Variety has it too. https://variety.com/2024/tv/obituaries-people-news/john-amos-dead-good-times-roots-1236161810/ I remember him more from Kunta Kinte in "Roots". I watched Good Times occasionally but it was not a show which was memorable to me. Quote

Both patriarchs from Coming to America gone within weeks of each other. 2 hours ago, US Egg said: He, along with Esther Rolle, were the real stars of Good Times, Dyn-o-mite aside. 🙄 Their portrayals convincingly conveyed the family situation Norman Lear wanted America to see. His was a pioneering type of roll as well as a TV show. One of the greatest sitcom theme songs as well. 1 Quote
