I’ll concede calling it “Good Times” probably wasn’t best for marketing. Double edge sword when you tryna rely on nostalgia.

The point is if you don’t like the trailer, don’t watch it. But saying oh why would they even green light this, because you don’t like what you see is ridiculous.

the detriment to this show is its name and name alone. people would be way less mad if this was just some new show about a random poor black family.

It’s outrage marketing (the reason I keep bringing up Seth cause this what he been doing on family guy and American dad. And that’s fine cause it’s your own source material. Don’t do that with OUR s*** dawg.) and that what gives me the biggest distaste out of all this.

Just make an original pilot. So tired of remakes i woulda thought joints like abbott, grand crew, and a few others showed it’s ok to take risks (i know they cancelled crew which, thats a bit saddening)

Nigga called the man a p**** for having integrity to leave a show he had creative differences with

Who is in these rooms and why do most of the time they don’t be us.

And im not saying “ugh no low brow black show allowed” cause I aint name nan one Tyler Perry show yet. Let people like him cook but like these crackas knew what they was doing.

“Twitter types”

if this had another name it wouldn't be getting so much attention

same s*** happened with Mr. and Mrs. Smith. studios gonna stick with the IP content as long as it generates clicks, they don't care about the motivation behind them

I apologize to those I’ve insulted itt. I came in heated, that wasn’t right.

Nah he p****. Cause if the show successful he gone put that on his resume.

something we have to reckon with is that sometimes we do be in them rooms and we do think it be funny. There are black people who like and consume this. that's just a fact. now your opinion on these types of black people is another but we have to first admit they exist thus incentivizing the market for more content of the same brand

And legit no shade, PJs was cool but I legit have forgot about that show (same with oblongs, I remember they existed but I just forgot how they were?)

I mentioned that “lena waithe/d’angelo smells like cigarettes and freedom” types

But I don't believe in judging something too hard before it's out. The trailer didn't do anything for me and honestly felt very derivative and tacky.

wasn't the d*** dealing baby a Chappelle bit?

It was. Which plays into another critique that some of these lil things are just dated or feel “run to the ground” already type s***.

Social media existing kinda the real reason we dont get (or really “need”) boondocks type shows no more.

Wow the jokes in that trailer are like 10 years out of date cringe.

And the orange juice concentrate thing is a yo momma joke from 1998

Nah, growing up actually watching good times, this ain't it fr

Facts! A lot of the niggas on twitter complaining barely even seen the original and just running off someone else’s opinion.

That’s no exaggeration when I say majority of twitter niggas just base their opinion off someone else’s opinion they tweeted.

Me and this girl I was sorta dating would always argue because she would always tell me “this and that” but her opinions wouldn’t be based off HER actual experience it was based off what the twitter and tik tok ppl were saying and she’d treat it as if it’s fact.

Her: Eww I would never work at a call center job because their bathrooms are always f***ed up

Me: Oh damn you worked a call center job and the bathrooms were f***ed?

Her: no I never have but I seen someone talk about it on tik tok
