TVFactFan · 12-20-2007, 07:33 PM

the TOP Christmas episode of All Time-lol

"PENNY CHRISTMAS????

HUH??? I can never take anything seriously she says again in TV Guide. She is a real Nut to choose his christmas ep of one of her all time favorites

catlover79 · 12-20-2007, 09:45 PM

OF ALL TIME???!! I wouldn't even put that in the Top 25!!

Ireneparalegal · 12-20-2007, 10:22 PM

Wait...you mean of all the Christmas shows ever shown on any sitcom?

Ireneparalegal · 12-21-2007, 09:17 PM

Solomon, I guess you missed my response...

Did the critic choose this as HER FAVE CHRISTMAS episode of all time?

I like the ending scene when Penny calls Willona "mama" and the fact that Willona gets to officially adopt Penny, but the whole episode is not up there with my fave Christmas episodes of any sitcoms. As a matter of fact, I can't really say there is a Christmas episode of Good Times that I really like. I hate that one episode where they perform at Keith's work...

I actually kind of liked that episode at the cab garage.

The Penny Christmas episode does have one redeeming quality - SANTA CLAUS LENNY!!!

Yup that's the one

I don't even feel like it is a Christmas episode.

It just feels and looks like any other Good Times episode, except there is a Christmas tree in the background.

I think it has the Holiday feel once Naomi parents show up-lol

That scene for sure and also the tag scene when the family is standing there with presents and the Christmas tree is seen in the background. Other than that, it just doesn't feel like one. I guess there was no time to sing holiday songs.

Oh, you mean like any episode of the Cosby Show? LOL.

Solomon, you know why it was voted the best Christmans episode. It had a fuzzy peachy child that was the center of attention throughout the episode. I could have strangled that dude for robbing a little ten year old girl like that.

Anything with penny in it was not the best nothing-lol

I see that you are still on your "I hate Penny" tirade. LOL. The only thing that I did not like about Penny was when she attempted to do the J.J. impersenation. I would want to turn down the volume when I would hear her go "DY-NO-MITE"! Never again! LOL.
