Default James Evans or George Jefferson, who was more fun to watch?

I would give the slight edge to james because he had more reasons to lose his temper than George

Anyways, yeah, I think George Jefferson was "a mile" ahead of James Evans. James might have been tough, but George was cool. James had a depressing life, and George led a life of luxury, yet he was still grumpy which made him even more funny. James was only funny when he got angry, and that was mostly just at JJ, but George was funny all the time, whether he was being nice or mean to all the characters on the show. George was around for four times as long, and even at his weakest, I'd still take him over James.



Even the 1980's George Jefferson?

George Jefferson was more "fun" to watch. There was nothing at all fun about seeing James Evans lose his temper.

Watching James lose his Temper as an adult is not fun either? Or are you just talking about as a Child?

It was definitely not fun as a child, but even as an adult I don't think James' temper is humorous like George's. I'd still say it. Anytime when James laughed or was in a good mood: cool. Anytime he's angry: bad.

The only Time James was a little too wild was when He threw the Chair against the wall, other than that he was ok

Smile James Evans or George Jefferson, who was more fun to watch?

George Jefferson was more fun to watch especially when he lost his temper and insulted people. He always made you laugh. James Evans was not fun to watch at all. When he lost his temper, he was serious and it was not funny at all.

So George wasn't serious when he lost his temper? I thought when you lose your temper that meant a person was serious-lol
