That is NOT Ben Powers, that’s Julian Bond 🤦🏾♀️
Why Do They ALWAYS Put Julian Bonds Picture As The Current Picture For Ben Powers?! 🧐🤨😠😡🤬🤦🏾♂️
🙄🤦🏾♀️
Thank you, I knew that wasn't Ben!😡
Thank You
thank you!!!
Watching this in your childhood days just seems like yesterday, when you see these before and after photos let's you know how time is valuable and how short it really is.
True facts
Good times will be my favorite show forever! I watch it everyday because it's still relevant today. May all the souls who have departed rest in eternal peace.. All LEGENDS TO ME... GOOD TIMES FOREVER ❤️❤️❤️🙌🏾
Big Big Big Facts!!!
@Donnica Pierre Comes on TVOne on Fridays a marathon n Saturdays marathon
Amen and amen again 🥰❤️🖤💚 it's my favorite too🥰and l have been blessed to meet Mr John Amos aka James Evans at a book signing of his🥰l have total respect for him,he showed himself to be the strong black man that he is even when he was kicked off the show for speaking up and out and wanted more for his tv family rather than JJ being foolish (side note JJ is still doing stupid Dynomite commercials at 78 years old)🤔and Mr Amos whose in his late 80's is as strong, healthy and alert as ever🥰❤️🖤💚 forever blessings to him he's my favorite male character and as Karma would have it Norman Lear is 100 and looks like death, he's being pushed around in a wheelchair and looks as dead as he made James Evans,l have no sympathy for Norman because he didn't have sympathy for Mr Amos who needed to feed his family just like the other actors 🤔❤️🖤💚
Peace! Are you Haitian? Im guessing from you last name. I had a Haitian friend in Ghana who watched reruns of Good Times everyday. It was a great show. Too bad the white producers ripped off Eric Monte, the creator.
@@kwamezulushabazz I'm not but the person you meant to send this message to may be🥰❤️🖤💚 Blessings to everyone and repost your message to them
HOLD UP
BEN POWERS aged and looked like Dr. Julian Bond, imo!!
Thelma, Willona and Penny will always be beautiful
That’s the same thing I said that wasn’t him that was Julian Bond.
@@glynisgaston6602
Very much like Julian Bond
Definitely made mistakes lol
That is Julian Bond who died in 2015 @ age 75. On Google that picture did falsely have Ben Power's name under it and also there was a picture of Al Jarreau with Ben's name on it. LOL Ben Powers also died in 2015 at age 64.

Shout out to Ralph Carter my old neighbor in Los Angeles California. Lived off this show. Lived it.
Awesome. He is in Brooklyn, NY now.
Ja'net Dubious was 41 when Good Times started. She was born in 1932
What?! More Lazy Ass Research??!!
Wow! You learn something every day. 70's Ben Powers actually morphed into 60's Civil rights leader Julian Bond. Amazing!
😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂
You = Funny. Not this.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I was thinking the same thing!!!
😂😂😂😂
1 of my favorite shows 👍👍👍👍
How dare you. THAT"S NOT NO DAM Ben Powers. That's DR. JULIAN BOND.
Lolllll😂😂😂😂😂!!!!
I knew Ms. Rolle was older than Mr. Amos ...but 54 and 35? wow...now that i think about it, it was a similar situation with Isabel Sanford and Sherman Hemsley IRL....she was about 20 year older as well...they all wore their ages well...
She was 10 years older then George
@@jackiecarothers1388 If you are referring to Isabel Sanford, according to Wikipedia, she was born in 1917, and Sherman Hemsley was born in '38...21 years older.
@@cc1966ful did not know that. Write
I was thinking the same thing. I’m not sure what to make of that. Why were they doing that? The shows are by the same creators, so that might’ve played a part but I’m curious what made them behind those casting decisions. Ironically we didn’t really know back then. At least I didn’t. I was a child for both of them but it never occurred to me until I saw their age differences in social media.
❤💙💜LOVE THIS SHOW🙂😃🥰ESPECIALLY JJ😘❤❤❤
Thelma, Thelma, Thelma!
Love me or leave me baby!
And Thelma said bye.lol
@@bettywilliams9633 Ha ha ha she did didn't she. that's when people knew how to write and now we're tolerating what shouldn't even be allowed on television. someone should tell Tyler Perry that morality is not just a word but a way of life that should be protected not exploited for profit.
Ben Powers? The older version looks like Jullian Bond, to me.
😉
Called life folks..
Do you expect people to look the same 50 years later?
Why they got Michael looking like freddy Kruger
I know, right, they say he's 61 but he looks 91.
@@zeusincoming282Hey!..i believe suffering from HIV/AIDS for many years has aged Ralph 😢
@@willomina1990...who said he had AIDS??
@@JoyAngelsHey!... Rumoured for many years he was suffering from the disease 😢
Hey!.... perfect description 😂😂😂
Do y’all REALLY expect ppl to go throughout life and its’ hardships and STILL look just like they did when they were on TV? Be realistic- it’s called TIME!
The older Ben Powers is Julian Bond.
Damn, is Michael OK 😱
He's a Beautiful Man. I've Met and talked with Him a few times. He is A Great Supporter of Community Theatre Here In HARLEM.
I haven't seen HIM recently, but I PRAY He's Well.
@@Cfemimoore712 why's he ugly now? How'd his nose get so big?
Warlords must of had beaten J.J.'s ass! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Awesome show!!
I loved that show! Still do!
Same here
Micheal were such a cutie pie when he were younger reminds me of my son when he were younger .
Ben Powers is said to have died young. But No one really knows for sure because he left the industry a long time and his life after Good Times was pretty much a mystery.
You need to take down that picture of Mr. Julian Bond.
We all know that is not Ben!!!
Michael was a cutie pie when he was young ..but damn! What the hell happened?
Time
Life
He has aids,and has had it for years allegedly
What happened to Ralph Carter? He's the youngest out of all of them but he looks older than all of them. Sure hope he's ok
💊 and 🍺??
That picture of Ben Powers on the right is Mr.Julian Bond!
So Florida was 19 years older than James?
Yeah that tripped me out!
Yes but they had that on tv 📺 chemistry like Bill Cosby and Phelicia Rashad.
Weezy was 21 years older than George
@@Freeway4sho All of these cougars.
@@Freeway4sho She sure was.
wow. that was an excellent show. From Mexico
I used to look at this show all the time. Sometimes I look at the reruns now...8/12/2022.
Micheal age bad omg
He Really is About Community. IT takes it's Toll.
I thaught Michael was a judge by now yo!
No. But HE IS COMMUNITY. Maybe that's Why He Looks LIKE That. T'aint Eazy!
@@Cfemimoore712 say what?
You know we loved GOOD TIMES and the cast was like family,so correct a Lil mistake on BEN POWERS post,at least you posted better pictures. 🤗tnk-u
this is my first time watching this and I love it soooooo much and i love good times soooooo much ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So Ben powers aged and turned to Julian bond y'all need to stop
I hate to see people go
I used to love this show. I was probably 10 yrs old in 1977. I remember all the characters. Wow so sad that most of them have died. It was a very good show. Very funny too. Oh the good old 70’s.
That's not Ben Powers man!!
They don't have another picture of Ben powers because that's the wrong man
@@anthonystringer2679 It's Julian Bond,They ALWAYS Get His Picture Mixed Up With Ben Powers,All These Where Are They Now Video Clips,They're LAZY!!!!!! 🧐🧐🧐🧐🤨🤨🤨😠😡🤬
🤦🏾♀️
Calm down Brother😂😉💖
@@gregoryjones9546 Exactly
i always knew Janet Jackson face look just like her brother Michael Jackson 💖💖🙏🙏😍😍🌺🌺🌺
Amazing
Good Times classic black television show
Memories!
Also Mike evens the writer is the other lional on the Jefferson
Mike Evans, the original Lionel on "The Jeffersons" was one of the writers on "Good Times", and "Movin' On Up", the theme song from "The Jeffersons" was sung by Ja'net DuBois, Florida's friend Willona, on "Good Times". It's amazing how those two shows are connected.
@@j.woodbury412 I know I be telling people that Mike even lional from the Jeffersons is the writer to good times hell he name the family the evens family lol same name
@@christinamoore9618 True.
PLEASE, if ur going to did this, DO the research & know who u are exposing. Black actor can't make substitution just bcuz their dead.
🤦🏽♀️😖😬😤
Icons
@ 1:42 ...I don't think that's Ben Powers ("Keith") ..I believe that was civil rights icon Julian Bond
😂I Believe YOU'RE Right! 😉
Thank you Ralph Carter. Lady T DALLAS 😊.
nice
I love him my baby he so sweet.
A great show like no other, that can have you laughing one minute and saddened the next, : how life was not so easy, a show that was reality that we see today, You will probably never see another show like this anytime soon, It was for real
Julian Bond and Ben Powers are not the same person!! 😡😡
That photo of Ben Powers at age 65 is a photo of Julian Bond!! If it's not, then they were twins!! LOL
The Jefferson is a spinoff of all in the family aswell
"Good Times" was actually a spin off from "Maude", which was a spin off from "All in the Family".
@@j.woodbury412 yes the Jefferson is a spinoff aswell from all in the family all in the family is the only sitcoms with more then one spinoff I Google it
@@christinamoore9618 Cool. It's a spin off from a spin off...lol
@@j.woodbury412 right how can a spinoff have a spinoff 🤣😂
@@christinamoore9618 Lol I don't know but apparently it is possible. There was one other example, The Jeffersons was a spin off from All in the Family, as we all know, but there was also a spin off from The Jeffersons, with Florence the maid. She gets offered a job as executive housecleaner and a hotel. It was called "Checking In" and it also starred Larry Linville (Major Frank Burns from "Mash"). I bet a lot of people don't remember that show because it only lasted four episodes before it was cancelled. By the way, I think Marla Gibbs (Florence) and Berlinda Tolbert (Jenny Willis Jefferson) are the only two original cast members still living. I don't know about Damon Evans, who replaced Mike Evans as Lionel. I guess he's still living. Anyway, he wasn't part of the original cast. Sherman Hemsley (George), Isabel Sanford (Louise), Mike Evans (Lionel #1) Franklin Cover (Tom Willis), Roxie Roker (Helen Willis), Paul Benedict (Harry Bentley) .Danny Wells (Charlie the bartender), Ned Wertimer (Ralph the doorman) and Zara Cully (Mother Jefferson) are all gone. Also, you may or not already know this, but Roxie Roker (Helen) was the mother of singer Lenny Kravitz and the ex mother in law of "The Cosby Show" actress Lisa Bonet.
You channels that do this putting up the wrong pic like what’s the motive . Cause I see this quite a bit .
That’s not Ben Powers that’s Julian Bond
جميل
The actor playing the father was only 35 back then? What!!!
Why is Julien Bond next to the guy that played Keith? Two different people.
COOOL
Ralph Carter..michael
that picture of Keith Anderson in his senior years, is actually a picture of Julian Bond,!!! an American social activist, one of the leaders of the civil rights movement
What the heck ? Why is Julian Bond’s pic with Ben Powers? Do ur research smdh
!!! WHY IN GOD'S NAME DID SOMEBODY PUT A PICTURE OF !!!JULIAN BOND!!! as Thelmas husband!!!!?????😡 This is soooo STUPID!!!!!!
You should be ashamed of yourselves. Julian Bond, indeed!
Alice Ghostly was only on Good Times once for about 4 minutes.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊
I'm getting tired of people saying that everybody from The Mary Tyler Moore show is deceased when John Amos is still alive. He wasn't in every episode but he played Gordy the weatherman.
I don’t think 🤔 John Amos was the sportscaster
@@shawnshawn6070 You're right Shawn. John Amos played Gordy the weatherman. I appreciate getting this information and I've edited my comment. I don't where I got the idea the idea that he was a sportscaster. lol Maybe because he looks like a football player?
@@ldchappell1 no worries 😉
wilona was younger than that she was 25,they made her look older
Raymond was Woodrow not Ned the wino
Michael looks bad
I know right
Mhmmm!😯
@@richardsfe , It has been said he had a very heavy drinking problem back in the day but thankfully he`s been sober for awhile now. He`s been quite thin for the past 15 or so years.
@@christhomas5761 I was going to say what happened to him because he hasn't aged well. Thanks for the explanation.
Ugh how did some of them become actors? They should’ve been in horror movies especially the youngest Michael? He does look like Freddy Krueger 🤣. And when one of The Wayan Bros use to do Michael Evans he’d put putty on his nose and made it look like a balloon. 🤣
That’s not an old Kieth Powers. That’s Julian Bond an Atlanta politician from the 70’s…….ridiculous
Anita that is Ben Powers
African American? Was this show shown in Africa America? BTW, where is that?
Like you really didn’t know that was Julian bond . Or do you do this to see how many comments roll point this disrespectful shit out .
Good point, cause I'm ALL over this POST. I no We LOVED & RESPECTED the Hell Out of JULIAN BOND.
julian bond looks dark
He really aged
Who really gives flying.
But you're here. I wonder how did the video even play for you
You should be ASHAMED of YOURSELF.
We BLACK PEOPLE KNOW THAT'S
✨THE WONDERFUL STATESMAN AND ACTIVIST
✨✨✨JULIAN BOND✨✨✨
Ummmm. Do your research please 🙄
It actually was a halfway decent showing a little humorous. But I could’ve done without the little black kid give him a constant speech about what black people accomplished.
Kinda like All in the Family! Well! I could've also done without a fat white man stereotyping black folks
THIS WAS CREATED BY A BLACK MAN FROM CHICAGO AS WELL AS A FEW OTHER STOLEN SHOWS! And RALPH CARTER AKA MICHEAL HE AINT NEVER CHANGED. MICHAEL&CYNTHIA FOREVER! Worry about those people THREATING the FBI and 🇺🇸 LAW ENFORCEMENT, TODAY!
