Am I the only one who thinks that he should have been a regular on the show? The two times he appeared, he cracked me the hell up. I think the episodes with him are my favorite GT episodes. He really made me laugh.

"Now you listen here mama..." <pointing little finger>

I agree. I laughed my A** off everytime he was on. Another great thing was how the audience seemed to get worked up and hyper when he was on screen. The show seemed to have a lot of energy in those scenes.

I don't know about being a regular, but yeah I wish they had a few more eps with him on there. He cracked me up too.

whoooo psychic stuff around here...I was just ready to post a thread abt this. He was hilarious. When he was this young he was. He wasn't hilarious in Diff. Strokes, in my opinion. I like how he was here and in the Jeffersons. Willona should have ADOPTED HIS ASS INSTEAD OF PENNY'S!!!!! :lol:

I agree, Gary added alot of energy and zing to the show.

Your scaring me again, I had just thought about if Willona would have adopted Gary instead of Penny. Y'all are right about the energy the audience put out when Gary was on, it was more lively. Penny already was kinda bland, but her doing a scene with Gary, I almost felt sorry for her cause she would just stand there with her arms crossed and didn't bring nothing to the scene. Seemed like all the focus was on Gary.

Another thought, if ever there was a kid that needed to be abused, it was Gary instead of Penny, with his smart mouth and attitude. be cool , just an innocent comment :cool:

Whoooooooooo, psychic stuff swirling around again...Craftman...can you read my mind right now??????

He couldn't make anymore guess apperances because the two Times he appeared on Good Times, it was enough for Norman Lear to give him his own show. So i guess he was that good that Norman said-"I gotta get this young man his own show"

He appeared on both the Jeffersons and Good Times in the Spring of 78, and started his show in the Fall of 78 before making one last apperance on Good Times in Sept or October of 78.

yeah what year did Good Times end

1979

Good lord! Gary Coleman was on Good Times?? That kid went all the way back to the 70s??? I assumed he made his first appearance on the tube at around 1981 at the earliest!

I don't remember seeing Gary on Good Times. I know i've seen every episode but i don't remember him being on there. I bet those episodes he appeared on was funny from what ya'll were saying about the comments he said on the show.

Yeah Gary was on the show in season 5 of Good Times and Season 6 when Florida returned. The audience loved Gary in both episodes

OMG, I thought Gary Coleman was just ADORABLE on the show! I wish he would have been in more episodes!

Willona should have adopted him instead of Penny-lol

gary was so adorable on this show. like a miniture george jefferson.

You are so right! He should have been George's son!

I liked that episode with him where he helped get FLorida the bus driver without even knowing.:lol:

Yeah and look at him now. He's a moody little tyke.:lol: I wish he would've threw a punch at me like he did that female secuity guard. I would've squashed his little a** like a bug.

What was it he said to JJ right before he told him he'd really lost his way? "Whiff it poof?"

It seemed like half the time Gary was struggling just to keep himself from laughing.
