    It would be a long time after this before another TV show would have an all African-American cast [Sanford and Son - 1972]
    I always thought it was ironic that it was the NAACP that raised the protests over Amos and Andy and eliminated series starring black people from television for the next two decades.

      @Riogi 2 года назад +3

      Exactly! What the NAACP actually did was remove an amazing show from television plus put some wonderful actors out of work. However, you never hear the NAACP complaining about the foolishness on TV today featuring people of high melanin, shows that are truly derogatory -- where they are arguing and fighting with each other and using bad language. The NAACP has no problem with this at all -- yet came after a show such as this one.

      @@Riogi Amos and Andy featured [like most sit-coms of the day] men and women with big ideas, but neither the resources or knowledge to carry them out. Humor ensues. The characters were also in professions, a doctor, a lawyer, a police officer as well as blue collar jobs, a proper cross section.
      In most ways their portrayal was no different than that of Ralph Cramdon, and Ed Norton in "The Honeymooners" except Cramdon and Norton were both in low-pay jobs and lived in a tenement.
      In the 70's when people of my hue were once again featured on TV they all held meneal jobs [Maid, Junk man, laborer] the only professional man was George Jefferson who owned a chain of dry cleaning stores [still doing other people's laundry].
      I see their portrayal as just-as if not more stereotyped as that of Amos and Andy.
      Jimmy "J.J" Walker's performance in facy could easily be compared to the comedy stylings of Lincoln Perry [aka Stepin Fetchit]. and Fred Sanford [Redd Foxx] was not unlike Kingfish.
      I think though, since the black presence on television had been very sparse up until that time, only a few supporting characters [usually in professions], the NAACP was happy just to break through and once again have TV shows that featured a black starring cast, and they worried less about the message the specific characters was sending.
      One thing though that the 70's shows DID portray, that Amos and Andy did not was the very real road blocks all people of non-white background faced in their era.

      @@Riogi Hello. You are spot on. When Amos 'n' Andy came to TV, it made many progressive changes to the stereotypical characterizations popularized on the radio program. The NAACP protests against the TV version were made out of context.

    This was the best comedy of the era it far exceeded in writing and acting than other shows of the era such as the Honeymooners or the extremely low brow I love Lucy. It wasn't equalled until the British shows such as Black Adder or the best comedy of all time Black Adder. All comedy's have an unscrupulous lead character and an idiotic fall guy. Watch the latter shows to see the best of modern comedy.
