CTHE Press Release: Good Times - Season Three
The 1974 Nielson Rated "Top 10" Sitcom Continues
**************************************************
GOOD TIMES: THE THIRD SEASON
**************************************************
Available for the first time on DVD in "DY-NO-MITE" Three Disc Set August 10
Culver City, CA (June 14, 2004) - Keep up with the struggles and the laughs of the
Evans family as they try to make ends meet on the south side of Chicago in this groundbreaking
1970s classic sitcom. *Featuring all 24 episodes, GOOD TIMES: THE THIRD SEASON debuts
August 10 on a must-have three-disc DVD set, available for $29.95 SLP from Columbia TriStar
Home Entertainment.
From TV veteran Norman Lear ("All in the Family," "Sanford and Son" and many more
hit TV series) and starring Emmy Award® - winning actress Esther Rolle and Emmy® -
nominated actor John Amos, GOOD TIMES was that rare hit show which struck a chord with
audiences of all colors. *A spin-off of "Maude," GOOD TIMES altered America's cultural
landscape by tackling topical, often controversial issues from a uniquely African American
perspective, while still managing to deliver heart-warming laughs. *The trailblazing show also
made a star of jive-talkin' comedian Jimmie Walker whose catch phrase "DY-NO-MITE!"
became part of '70s pop culture.
Synopsis
*Living's rarely easy in the Chicago housing projects, but the Evans family never gives up trying
to make the best of things. *Parents Florida and James struggle to provide for the family while
their sons J.J., an aspiring painter, and Michael, the undying political crusader, cause trouble
while their sister stands between them as the voice of reason. *They may struggle to survive, but
life is never boring. *The popular third season tackled topical themes from venereal disease to the
U.S. Bicentennial and plot points like J.J.'s surprising engagement, Thelma's man troubles,
Michael's problems in school, and James buying a gun to protect his family from local crime.

I'm looking forward to this as well, though I guess I'm in the minority in that I still enjoyed the show even after It'll be a release day pick-up for me. |

I hope all six seasons of GOOD TIMES are eventually released but I have to admit the first three seasons were definitely the best.
