Do you think James was more bark than bite in his threats to the children??? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I personally think James was more bark than bite in his threats to the children especially J.J. and Michael. But when J.J. felt he was right he would stand his ground with James and not back down. My personal favorite with J.J. standing his ground with James was when Thelma and Larry got engaged when he kept saying, "no dad." At the end James respected J.J. for standing up for Thelma and what he believed in.

Well the kids referenced in the Bully episode that they have received physical punishment from James. Soooo, to them, his BARK WAS AS BAD AS HIS BITE!!!!

James didn't fool around. If you were out of line, you paid the price! lol

It seems that James was always getting ready to whip his belt off but always stopped. He did have quite the holler going on though. I'd fear him if he was my father.

Janice my favorite was when Michael wanted to stay up late to watch TV

Michael: Aw come on daddy I want to watch the Wolfman

James: If you don't go to bed you will be watching the BELTMAN!

LOL
