Default Re: Why did Penny just appear on Good Times without a explanation?

But Penny just appeared out of nowhere without any reason for being around the Evans. She was too young to be a friend of Michael's so what was the purpose of Penny's existence?-LOL. She had none and didn't have no reason for existing until she was adopted by Willona. So i think the writers did a horrible job of introducing the Penny character. I was too young at the time but i know when viewers saw the Penny character for the first time at the beginning of the 1977-78 season, i know they were like who the hell is that?-LOL

There WAS an explanation. Watch the show again.
