GEORGE JEFFERSON IS A GOD AMONG MEN

This is one of my favorite shows on TV. George is such a fucking badass (third only to House and James Kirk).

 :punch :punch :punch

House is whiny ass, white, bitch motherfucker.

I feel sorry for Kirk though.

Jefferson's better.

I always had a crush on Archie's I'll-fuck-your-fork-ass-up-once-I-waddle-there-attitude though.

Good Times was also really really good, but that show sank to the god-damned pits when it basically became the J.J. show.  By no means was the Jefferson great from start to finish, but Good TImes went to motherfucking Urkeltown with JJ.

It got really strange when the father died/disappeared/whatever the fuck happened to him.

Yeah, I wanted to peg that as the point it got bad, but it's been at least 3 years since I saw the show.  The father was such a strong character, and a really great actor.  I'd fucking believe he was my dad if I weren't a pale french cigarillo.

Kunta Kinte was all of our fathers :(

The way his death/disappearance/whatever was treated was strange to say the least. Most of the black sit coms of that day dealt with serious social issues at one point or another, but it was blended with the comedy. In this case...not so much.

But it was a great show for a long time

I didn't know he was Kunta.  Then again I am white so I am not allowed to watch Roots.

He died, didn't he?  I remember the storyline being something like he got some great new job, and he died in an auto crash going to it?

He played the older Kunte in the latter part of Roots. LeVar Burton of Reading Rainbow fame played the younger, more iconic Kunte we all know
