Why was there so many episodes of Thelma being engaged?

She got a ring from that old dude Donald played by Lou Gossett Jr.

She got a ring from Larry

She was gonna marry Ebay

She married Keith

I mean dang couldnt they come up with some more original story lines? One engagement could have been enough and then when she married Keith. All those other episodes about that should never had taken place.

It took me a few seconds to realize the eBay name. I knew who they were talking about, but didn't pay it any attention. Damn, she was interested in marrying four different dudes. For a good two shoes, she was "something else", wasn't she.

It's sad though that the only recurring story lines for her involved men. The next recurring story line had to do with some college and tuition, etc. That girl never got a break or a real good story.

Youre right its spelled Ibe Wubila. Found the info on www.imdb.com Search for Good Times. You can view all the episode characters and guest stars on that site.

Speaking of repeating things on GT. I just realized they repeated the characters names too...Larry..Little Boy who had a hearing problem..Last Season of GT and then Larry who played Thelma's boyfriend who gave her an engagement ring. Couldnt they use different names? I mean there are a million names to choose from.
