Default Times when Good Times made you UPSET? :( :/

This is different than the "Times Good Times made you MAD? Thread. This is for when Good Times made you sad/disgusted/disturbed/upset...

Michael joking that People who were in Prison for MURDER don't get released to halfway homes, they get released back into the streets NEVER made me laugh. I find it sad and disturbing.... NOT funny.

Yup that made no sense why would she want her daughter to stay in the ghetto? That’s the equivalent to saying you’d rather drink soda all day over water cause’ it tastes good. That doesn’t mean it’s healthy.

BTW: Did you see how tight Frank grabbed Wilona when he came in? Damn, that was a hot outfit Wilona had on. I think that was one of Wilona’s best looks throughout the whole show.

The audience LAUGHING when the NURSE admitted that she worked in a HOSPITAL and couldn't afford to get sick... That's one of the saddest things EVER, not funny!

The ENTIRE Evans Family being HARASSED for something JAMES did upset me. James returned like $27,000 he found in a Borgen's Market Robbery. On TV, it was said that James would be getting a Reward for returning the money.... The "Reward," was a $50 Gift Certificate. JJ begun getting BEAT up over the "Reward," (They thought the "Reward," was in CASH) which really upset me. His "Friends," were at first being "Nice," to him, asking politely if they could get a loan since JJ and his Family were so interested in giving away money...

Once again, it was only JAMES that gave back the money. They then begun to roughly PUSH JJ while JJ looked slightly HORRIFIED. Luckily, James sensed something bad was starting to happen to JJ, and came to JJ's rescue and chased away JJ's "Friends," JJ put up his dukes playfully, but soon looked REALLY upset, serious, and troubled. The Evans get thrown a Dummy that reads ,"Here's another Dummy for the Dummy Family who gave back all that money!" I was upset. A GT Fan even said,"They deserved that." WTF? No, they didn't. Only James gave the money back. There was no reason to harass the rest of the Evans Family that had absolutely NOTHING to do with James's returning the money. The Evans got cussed out at least twice on the phone for James returning that money. So sad. If anything, ONLY James should have been cussed out and harassed, not the entire Family....

When Penny starts beating her doll in front of JJ and the audience laughs as if its a joke. She was acting out on her doll what she got at home. How is the funny?

I remember a GT Fans on here saying something like,"I can't believe the Audience was LAUGHING when Penny started shouting at her Doll and beating her up. It was obvious that Penny was acting out the Abuse she was getting through her Doll. I personally was upset, NOT amused. " The reply was something like," The Audience was laughing rambunctiously at first, but as the abuse of the doll went on, the Audience laughter seemed more fake and worried before finally stopping." Someone else said," "It took the Evans seeing Penny's badly burned back to FINALLY realize Penny was getting abused. Her abusing her Doll, her WILD LIES about her life, her being SCARED to go home were ALL red flags that she was getting abused. It shouldn't have taken her badly burned back to show she was a victim of Child Abuse."

Whenever something good happens, Florida comes in with some b.s. about why they shouldn't have that thing.

When Thelma gave up a good scholarship for a boarding school because a racist girl tried to get her into their sorority. Like, there are other sororities or be a loner, but get that free education.
