Which is winning?

 

[Chi-Town B]

James was an abusive husband/dad
Florida was a coon
JJ was a shucking and jiving buffoon

Wasn't nothing funny about black poverty, get good times the fuck outta here

 

[Revolver Ocelot]

Different World

 

[LexDiamond1995]

A Different World was my shit back then and now

Still relevant to this day


Whitely looks terrible now tho and Dwayne Wayne is like 300 lbs

 

[Norrin_Radd]

Different World arguably the GOAT black sitcom. Topics on the show are relevant today. Made me want to go to a HBCU.

Lol when was James an abusive husband?

 

[Water Ur Seeds]

Never seen either so I'll sit this one out...

 

[Chi-Town B]

Lol when was James an abusive husband?

Yelling at everyone because he lost his job for the eighth time having the family on edge, didn't say it was physical

Man what he did was not abusive lol....he was stressed out so his emotions were different

 

[Chi-Town B]

Taking you frustrations out on your family because shit not going right for you, that's abuse

He was until he moved in with a white girl

Good times could be a hella depressing watch. Lmao. It isn’t a terrible show and I’ve enjoyed a couple episodes that I’ve watched.

I went with a Different World due to it being a pretty well rounded show. It was funny, talked about real stuff, wasn’t preachy, and most importantly entertaining

 

[Chi-Town B]

I remember an episode James beat Michael because Mike stayed true to his beliefs but that man wasn't abusive

 

[Chi-Town B]

Then you had Keith smacking Thelma while JJ and Michael just stood there

 

[Disanthrope]

He was until he moved in with a white girl

Seriously? I missed that episode...

 

[Disanthrope]

Then you had Keith smacking Thelma while JJ and Michael just stood there

Damn, missed that 1 too

 

[Agent_Ro]

This is truly a tough one

 

[Chi-Town B]

Damn, missed that 1 too
