Mr jimmie walker the ebony prince and miss bernadette the beautiful and fine woman are the heart and soul of good times only reason we watched!!! Without them 2 no show!!!
They turned him into a buffoon, which he obviously wasn't just by watching this brief interview, the show turned into a Black minstrel show, that's why John Amos left the show, Norman Lear was the cause of the show demise, yes he's definitely a legend for creating some of the best shows in television history, but he also stole a lot of people ideas that never got the credit that they deserved!
Little nugget Jimmie has said that he couldn't read or write so when came learn the shows script had have someone read the lines to him..by memory repeat his lines perfectly... Wow... As time went he learned read n write...
Wow, that’s deep! That move it was something different I’m just glad you stayed out the way & lived life as you saw fit. I’ve heard the name, but never read his story, but I’m going to look it up now. I’m still a fan of the show. I’m watching it now ❤
But you still want to say “dynamite “ through the whole show. John Amos tried to explain to you his reasoning for objecting so many jokes during the show. You didn’t care. You already said you didn’t get along with anyone on the show besides “John brown( book man)” on the show. No one else wanted to constantly stay chucking and jiving. They wanted a show with substance. You didn’t get it when you were young, after bumping into FRED HAMPTON. So I know you don’t understand now. Keep on dancing jj. Just keep on dancing. ☝🏾
Respect ❤
These stories and ALL of his Television Archive Interviews are fascinating. Jimmie Walker is a live history book.
Captivating brief interview...deep

.....false. James Evans centered the show.

Little nugget Jimmie has said that he couldn't read or write so when came learn the shows script had have someone read the lines to him..by memory repeat his lines perfectly... Wow... As time went he learned read n write...
Fred Hampton told him, they are going to kill me. 😶That’s crazy..
Jimmie Walker, Sinbad, Bill Cosby were among few comedians that were funny without using profanity.
