I thought Alan Willis was annoying as hell. I don't know who was more annoying...the first Alan or the second Alan. Also, neither Alan looked mixed like Jenny did.I liked Marcus better. The second Lionel was such a TERRIBLE actor.

For whatever reason, Michael Evans (Lionel #1) returned to the series.
Alan Willis was a two off character. He was ironically the black sheep of the family who was mad at his father for some reason. What was the reason? Was it difficult to actually find mixed race actors to play Jenny and Allen? The actress who played Jenny was African American while the actor who played Allen was white. Rashida Jones and Lenny Kravitz would have been better, but both were kids at the time, however, Helen and Tom were young enough (and obviously since Lenny was Roxie Roker's son) to have young kids. Michael Evans was less than ten years younger than Sherman Hemsley, although Sherman looked liked an old man since he was a young man. Are there any male mixed race actors out there besides the guy in the White House? |

There are some eps when he looks his real age especially when he was pleasant. Actually he looks young in the 1st episode of the series. On AITF he looked ever older because they tried to make his hair extra gray so he could look the same age as Louise. He was never that gray on the Jeffersons |
