Fun fact: John Witherspoon played a cop in SE06 EP21 of Good Times. The episode was titled "A Matter of Mothers," and the plot was about Willona being set up by Penny's mom, who tried to stop Willona from being eligible to adopt Penny. Ahhh... those were some good times watching meaningful tv shows back then 😁
A great clip! Bernadette looked like she hadn’t changed a bit. Johnny looked like he didn’t age either. Janet didn’t look like she aged much either. Anna did a good impression of Florida. The Wayan brothers did great with JJ & Mike.
The way Michael keep violating JJ got me laughing way too hard 😅 Marlon is really crazy lol and Shawn didn't break character during those groping harrassments😅😅😅 I'm literally crying laughing at that😅Michael even grabbed his dad chest at the end Lol
I had the pleasure of meeting them both. I took the pictures of my friends with Ja'Net Dubois at a film festival and she insisted that take one too. A few years later, I went to John Witherspoon's show and afterwards I told him he smelled good I expected an old man smell. He laughed so hard. Seriously I wish I knew what kinda cologne he had.
Literally had tears coming down my face from laughing at this! Brilliant portrayal of JJ !! How did they keep from just losing it with laughter ?? And what fun to see people from original cast !
I was cracking up when I saw Pops dressing up like James Evans, lol!!! This isn't the first time that Shawn had played J.J. Evans, he had played him on In Living Color when he did a sketch of L.L. Cool J's "Mama Say Knock You Out".
This was one of the funniest moments in the entire show. This and the Bernie Mac episode. Also, the fact that Thelma, Bookman, and Ralona looked nearly the same decades later is crazy.
It took me the longest time to figure out that that's REALLY Thelma. I was like " how the hell did they find a girl that looks JUST LIKE the real Thelma????" 🤦😂
"Wilona, I told you about coming up in here like that... I'll buss a cap in yo' ass"! Too funny! Also when Thelma try to stay in character from laughing when J.J snap at her! This skit is spot on funny!!! May John, Ja'net, Florida, and Bookman all rest in peace, and keep heaven laughing!!!😂😂😂❤
What got me was the muscle suit on Jon Witherspoon 😂😂😂😂 The Real James Amos was BUILT like a tank 💪 He got signed with Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs in the NFL. When he saw football was not going to be his thing he went into acting.
Not shocked. Jimmie Walker WAS JJ Evans. Much like the rest of the casts of All In The Family, The Jeffersons and Good Times... Though I will say Jamie Foxx was the best at imitating Sherman Hemsley. He couldn't beat Sherman but he came closer to capturing the character of George Jefferson than everyone else.
When I was about 7 years old, I would watch this and hoped I'd grow up to look like Thelma... I'm white so that would be impossible... but my body was rocking like hers... she is just so perfect!❤
I swear i was cracking up at how JJ kept having to smack Michael's hand away because he kept feeling him up. He even took a shit at James around the chest area..lol! I swear this show use to crack me up! I hated when they took it off!!
Marlon feelin shawn & pops up had me dead...thats definitely ad libbing at its best...mad ppl aint get what he ws doin but old school heads (should) know lol
@@airpegasus5167 big facts....also Michael evans was based on the real life Michael evans who starred as Lionel on the Jeffersons...Not sure why they made dude so moist in the show...but then again, the actor that played Michael was one of those kinda folks...
Rocko I been wondering about that myself. I know that there is some sort of hidden meaning behind the hand gestures. The Wayans don’t just do things like that for nothing.
Hands down the best Good Times parody EVER!!!!!
Mr. Blue no question
N SNL too
The porn one was pretty goid too 😁
Agree 👍
Yes!
"I just got fired for the 5th time this month" *throws chair*
That part had me rolling. 🤣
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Yo that part 😭
💀
Lmao, the muscle suit on Pops. He looks so swollen😂
Tania Jones makes me laugh every time 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Damn 20 years passed since the good times ended by the time this episode came out and thelma still looked good
Mal that’s crazy
So did wylona
Because she was REALLY young when it aired. 18-25 plus 20 years... still young
@@So_Cato That's a GOOD POINT SHE! Many black women in their 40s, look like they are in their late 20s/early 30s.
@@So_Cato she was 20 when it aired and 25 when it ended. She around 44 or 45 here
how does Thelma look exactly the same
Michael and Booker, too.
@@tsmit44 Don't you mean Bookman?
…...now that....we will never know.
leah hugie ikr and still look good in her 60’s
@JaySinger why does Janet Dubois look younger here but so old as their grandma
The way he was threw that chair though!😆😂 "hypertension"
Sandy Red 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 can’t believe Pops is gone...John Witherspoon was so funny
2:43 😁 😂
Lol the way he looked when Marlon rub on his chest .
👉😂😂😂😂😂oh🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂
"And mama after a few years when we find
your neck"
🤣🤣🤣🤣
When James throws the chair 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 just like the real show 🤣 James was always pissed
😂😂😂
No he wasn't mostly
Ok well aggressive as fuck
Mr. Butler explained it best in Menace II Society... "well, you know, white man always on ya back."
Always 😂😂😂😂
Dee was trying not to laugh when marlon said "after we find yo neck"
Ok now I have to look again!😆😆
She did laugh!😀😀
They had to retake that scene. You see her arms are by her side after the jump cut. She probably busted out laughing.
What's happening Tupac
That part to this day still get me
The nose on Michael 🤣🤣🤣💀
They did Florida Evans wrong 😂
Earnesta Gardner 😭🤣
Earnesta Gardner naw they didn’t, it was on point! 😭😭😭
After all these decades..
The mysterious disappearance of
Florida Evans neck should be finally be
thoroughly investigated!!!!!
😭😂
And Michael!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Facts
Bookman too…
@@JusticeNice11😮
Had to come here to see a REAL tribute to Good Times! They even had Bernadette, Johnny and Ja'Net do their characters which was amazing!
John Witherspoon also played a small role in SE06 EP21 of Good Times... back in 1979!
I just realized Penny and Willona had the same first name. Because at first, I was like, “Janet wasn’t on this one!”. Lol
@@NOV123 True lol although Ja'Net pronounces it differently.
"I just got fired for the last damn 5th time this month"!!!!!!😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They stayed firing James🤣🤣🤣 I think they fired him out of fear🤣
I'm in tears over here...best episode! Lol
Kam Mike yes it is
THELMA STILL LOOKS GOOD...KEEP IN MIND SHE IS 45 YEARS OLD HERE
Wilona looks great too. She had to be at least 53 at that time.
She was 40 years old actually
@@RelK29 no she was 45.She was born in 1953 and this was in 1998.She may have been 44 depending on when this was filmed
She was born December 22nd 1953, so pretty much any of her 1998 projects she was 44 considering she was only 45 nine days of that year
she looks 25
Three of the original cast members from the actual 'good times' series,.......what a treat.
Kinda four in a sorta-kinda way if you include John Witherspoon lol
My favorite episode 😂RIP "Pops" John Weatherspoon❣
Shawn's reaction to Good Times theme song was *ALL* of our reactions to Good Times theme song 😂
This will always be way better than the one they did on SNL. 😂😂😂😂
Lol
@Xyn Williams it varies...SNL is hit or miss
I think SNL's parody of Joker was a hit
@Xyn Williams naw son lol
@Brooklyn Born yup and they didn't have enough black people for it smh.
A great clip!
Bernadette looked like she hadn’t changed a bit.
Johnny looked like he didn’t age either.
Janet didn’t look like she aged much either.
Anna did a good impression of Florida.
The Wayan brothers did great with JJ & Mike.
Yes. Marlon favored Michael here
The way Michael keep violating JJ got me laughing way too hard 😅 Marlon is really crazy lol and Shawn didn't break character during those groping harrassments😅😅😅 I'm literally crying laughing at that😅Michael even grabbed his dad chest at the end Lol
Facts
yall aint gon meantion how good Willona Woods looks
They act like she doesn't exist smh
Both Thelma and Willona look good!!!
you know she's on the wayans bros show too?
@@SiccDeville yeah she's the grandma
The Wayans are some fools!!!! This was right on time!!!!! Lol!!!!
Wow he sounds just like JJ!😭😂
Them dramatic pauses lool
DaeJanai DJ he did JJ on in living color too
DaeJanai DJ And already having the NY accent really helped!
@@seanalexander526 And wore that blue bucket hat too
RIP Ja'Net Dubois and John Witherspoon
yes...so sad they passed away
@@juliedavis7445 and they both was on Good Times
Thelma’s not dead.

Now Johnny Brown
Literally had tears coming down my face from laughing at this! Brilliant portrayal of JJ !! How did they keep from just losing it with laughter ?? And what fun to see people from original cast !
I was literally crying from laughter too.🤣
Did you noticed James came in through that door in the kitchen that never opened on the real show?🤣
@@ericawilliams5284 LOL - I did notice that !
RIP John Witherspoon, Ja'Net Dubois, and Johnny Brown!!!
“When we find your neck” 😄😄😄
What made this the best parody was the fact that The Wayans Bros. actually brought in
three of the original cast members from the original series.
Why Marlon keep touching Shawn like that 😂😂😂
Yo today is 11/8/19 7:56 am and I am sitting here in tears. This never gets old.
Bernadette Stanis (Thelma) is amazing......nuff said
Thema so beautiful
Lamont King bernadette is a foxy mama!!!
@@angeljohnson6665 was that really her
Marshan Thomas yes she was like in her 30s in 1998 when this episode aired but looked like a teen still
@@angeljohnson6665 She was actually in her mid 40s then. Even more impressive.
@@handsomeX Black don't crack!!
I was cracking up when I saw Pops dressing up like James Evans, lol!!! This isn't the first time that Shawn had played J.J. Evans, he had played him on In Living Color when he did a sketch of L.L. Cool J's "Mama Say Knock You Out".
When “Michael” rubs “James’” chest when speaking to him 💀💀💀
“A no neck monster with an Afro was in my bedroom” diabolical work 😅😂😂
I liked how all 3 of the original actors all looked the same!!!
She did not age. Always beautiful
It’s so funny 😂 when he gets pissed 😡 and throws furniture lmao 😂
2:43 😁 😂
This was one of the funniest moments in the entire show. This and the Bernie Mac episode.
Also, the fact that Thelma, Bookman, and Ralona looked nearly the same decades later is crazy.
I cry everytime I see this.They are so spot on!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I can’t breathe 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Love watching this episode....John Witherspoon is a legend RIP Pops
😂😂🤣
Chairs don’t last in that house 🤣🤣🤣
2:43 😁 😂
Wow JJ character and THELMA character spot on, incredible!!
thats really thelma

@@SiccDeville grandmother
You all are very smart yall answer all of my questions thanks lollll
@@gen4john660 And to think Pops was going to arrest Willona in Good Times lol
What's the number one killer? East Coast, West Coast beef. Lol.
😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
fred sanford thought it was the police
The snap 😭😭😭😭
Michael never came from behind that sofa🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes. Seemed strange but then I realized that really is where is was most of the time in the original show.
He was playing with himself behind that sofa....😭😭😭😭🤣🤣
It took me the longest time to figure out that that's REALLY Thelma. I was like " how the hell did they find a girl that looks JUST LIKE the real Thelma????" 🤦😂
🤣 Don't feel bad. Bernadette somehow looked about the SAME age here as she did on Good Times, despite about a 20 year span between the shows. 😀
"No neck monster with a short afro...was in MY BEDROOM!"
You know that was me in the bedroom James.....😭😭😭😭🤣🤣
I love Willona happy entrances; dancing over pork rinds on sale. Love it. ❤❤
Government Sugar Tho!😂😂😂😂😂
This is the funniest expression of good times I've ever seen in my life 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
They was really excited for Pork Rinds LMAO!
Yo this shit has me crying. From the time Michael pops up from behind the couch to James throwing the chair. I'm dying.
I just got fired for the last damn 5th time this month
Tyrone Preston 😂😂😂😂😂 the accuracy tho
Hahahahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
LMAO 😂
👉😂😂😂😂😂
3:27 Yes this is the Evans residence, uh huh “slaps Marlon’s hand” Michael!!! 😂😂😂
Why Shawn portrayed JJ so well🤣🤣🤣 & they didn't have to do Florida like that.
I almost peed my pants from laughing so darn hard LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!
I love the way Shawn is just dancing along to the theme song 💀💀💀
Bernnadette looks incredible! She hasn't aged a day!
Shawn’s impression of JJ was spot on 🤣🤣🤣
Michael grabbed jj booty 😂😂😂😂😂😂
and he upper cut him to the gut.
are they trying to say that he was gay?
4r33 Mason “fruity”?
James like, "They already fired me this morning!"................JJ like, " They was just makin sure!"
Crazy how that last line is true now. Turning projects into condos
"Wilona, I told you about coming up in here like that... I'll buss a cap in yo' ass"! Too funny! Also when Thelma try to stay in character from laughing when J.J snap at her! This skit is spot on funny!!! May John, Ja'net, Florida, and Bookman all rest in peace, and keep heaven laughing!!!😂😂😂❤
John?
John Witherspoon probably. John Amos is still alive
@@ww7988John Witherspoon.. duh
This is Jive at its best😂😂😂 Flo wasnt what i expected but this is so awesome
😂😂😂😂 my fav episode... I swear this is a classic show
What got me was the muscle suit on Jon Witherspoon 😂😂😂😂
The Real James Amos was BUILT like a tank 💪
He got signed with Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs in the NFL.
When he saw football was not going to be his thing he went into acting.
DAMN, at least you could've FINISHED this.
That's a good JJ impression
They not right 😂😂😂😂
Mama in a few years after we find yo neck 😂😂 😂😂 😂
John Witherspoon was still there Dad from Friday on this. 😂😂😂🙏🏾
Shawn Wayans played J.J. better than the actor did on the Good times live 12-18-19.
Not shocked. Jimmie Walker WAS JJ Evans. Much like the rest of the casts of All In The Family, The Jeffersons and Good Times... Though I will say Jamie Foxx was the best at imitating Sherman Hemsley. He couldn't beat Sherman but he came closer to capturing the character of George Jefferson than everyone else.
Canadian actor Arnold Pinnock is a dead ringer for J.J.
both of them play it good as jj
“After a few years, when we find your neck”😂😂😂😂
u can tell they wanted to laugh with that phone part
Oh no look at Michael's nose!!! They were wrong for that lol lol
And they were wrong for Florida's gap
Lmao 🤣👍🏻"mama after a few years when we find your neck... 😆 Smh...I think I cracked a rib...the Wayne's are hilarious.
RIP JOHN WITHERSPOON, Janet Dubois and Johnny Brown
I love the Wayans. Enjoy them since Keenan Ivory Wayans and Damon Wayans. Shawn Marlon and the whole family tree. Great talent right here😂😂
Love how the Wayans brothers pay homage to GOOD TIMES....and Thelma still looks the same.
When I was about 7 years old, I would watch this and hoped I'd grow up to look like Thelma... I'm white so that would be impossible... but my body was rocking like hers... she is just so perfect!❤
