I thought Keith did a great Peter Falk impression on the episode where JJ has that sexy art student.He talks to her as Peter Falk and Thelma drags him to the movies(one with Peter Falk?).I wonder what theatre.Ben Powers was very talented.In the 1978 Christmas talent show episode,Ben Powers did a fantastic impersonation of Jerry Lewis,Tony Bennett,Rober Goulet,Johnny Mathis by singing the song "Misty".I thought it was extremely well done and very underrated.Ben Powers was certainly talented.I never saw him in any movies.He also impersonated Jerry Lewis in the episode where he and Thelma were kissing and Thelma was offended because she wanted to keep Penny away from that type of stuff since her friend Tina was pregnant.Ben Powers did a great Jerry Lewis.He was funny.

The big answer is: yes!, it'll be shown during the marathon. The episode is titled "Nell's Ex." The GAB episodes that will be shown during the marathon are listed in this thread |

I would love to know whatever happened to him. I liked him on Good Times and I'd like to write to him someday.
