You mean before or after John Amos walked out cause they kept tryna turn Good Times into the “Comedic JJ Coonery show?”
Which good times did YOU watch dawg?
That’s kinda my point and was finna bring that up. Lmao dude left the original cause it was turning into the same s*** and it ran for years/was loved for years after that. I used to watch all the time as a kid with older relatives who either watched reruns or had the dvds
When wasnt Good times about silly hood problems + a little social commentary sprinkled in. Florida don’t want niggas playing the lottery or some silly s*** with a small part in the script about why she not wrong lol
This turned up the Boondocks/PJ’s type s*** but it still ultimately looks to be that
I assumed people were just gonna knock this for having a terrible framerate. Sitcoms are often about lower class buffoonery. White or black.

Lmaooo niggas wanted an anime version of this? instead of a new PJ’s/Boondocks?
You must’ve hated The PJs then?
Nigga the PJs came out 20 years ago. Atp someone should have a problem with Lil Bill

If people don't want to watch this comedy set in Southside Chicago, they should watch Southside. Its early seasons are some of the funniest sitcom TV I've seen in a minute.
This literally looks like a show Riley and Robert would be watching on The Boondocks in the background. While Huey looks at them with the face

Yea the OG Good Times just looks dumb as f*** when you're not young and blinded by nostalgia. Niggas are not being happy in poverty no matter how many jokes they try to toss in about it. But I understand a lot of people probably wanted to use the show as a form of escapism.
This reboot looks trash as f*** too.
I wonder why out of all the classic black shows/IP'S to reboot/remake that they choose to dig up Good Times out of all things Especially in 2024.
Good Times is a relic and time capsule of the 1970s and should have stayed that way.
Thoughts?
It was straight. Nothing ground breaking but funny at times. Pretty quick + easy watch. Reminded me of The PJs from what I can remember of that show
Only funny part about this show is the baby, and that’s mainly because Slink Johnson makes anything funny.
Writing is terrible. Episode one ending already lets you know that the show will not redeem itself.
And writing aside, the show is visibly hard to watch because of how low budget the animation is. It’s like playing a video game and the frame rate keeps dropping.
