Ever noticed how Lionel was seen less and less once George Jefferson made his
appearance on All in the Family? This decreased screen time for Mike Evans also carried over to the Jeffersons in season 1 which led to his abrupt departure. So I guess what I'm trying to say is Sherman Hemsley stole the spotlight from Mike Evans-lol

Yup - they were still looking for the "perfect" George so they used Henry until he was found in the 4th season. I liked Henry too though - especially the episode where he and Archie blow raspberries at each other - they both must have been soaked after doing that scene!  I missed Lionel - BADLY!! I loved the way he would play Archie. I really liked Mike Evans and thought he'd go on to bigger and better things. I never liked the second Lionel at all (on The Jeffersons). |

I always get a kick out of that. In a previous episode, Archie's TV was broken and Loinel tried to fix his tv. Loinel acted he was a slave for Archie. LOL Then a jewish tv repair man stop by. He told Archie that he will fix it on Monday because he wanted to go to church AND he don't work in the evening at all. Archie didn't like that one bit. they went to Kelsey's bar to see him on the CBS NEWS. suddenly, Richard Nixon INTERUPTED the news! That ticked Archie off big time. Later at home, Lionel stop by to tease Archie about being Richard Nixon! that was a funny episode. |

Season 2......Episode 12 - the Man In The Street I didn't know that Dan was in a episode. I figured it will be some ACTOR playing a news reporter. I was quite surpised. |
