Honkey

[Jinxey]

What was the last episode EVER George used the word Honkey???

[MikeLutton]

think hawaiian one he called the crooks honkey and think that was it

i thought he called them hollies....if i remember correctly he didn't directly call anyone a honkey in that episode...he was just telling the hawaiian guy that they used that term when referring to white people.

It was the episode with the Little Girl Abby when George called Tom a Honkey in front of her

Now you got me wondering -
Maybe he said "haole", which is the Hawaiian word for white people?

It can't be....he said that word in the episode Louise's Setback later in season 6 when Bentley skated in the room to hug him.

I forgot verbatim what was said, but it was something like "getting a honkey off his back" (referring to Bentley)

On E! Untold Stories, Sherman Helmsley said that he wanted George to stop using the word and not to call Tom Willis that anymore. It was good that he stopped that.

I think Honkey was used the most on the Jeffersons than any other black show. I think it was only used ONCE on Sanford and Son and Good Times

Ok...I take what I said back...in the sixth season episode The Longest Day, George was watching a football game with Tom and he yelled at the TV saying something like "tackle that honkey"

I never minded George using that word. When he stopped saying it in the show, things became a lot "quiter" LOL

Which didn't make sense because wasn't FAT, just tall and chubby.
