The Cosby Show or Good Times?? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I figured I would ask because there are cable stations who are having a marathon of both shows at the same time today and wanted to ask which would you look at first??

I chose the Cosby Show because it has more FUN episodes.

Good Times.It's a much better show in my opinion,although when John Amos left the show it went downhill. I have nothing against Bill Cosby but any of the Norman Lear shows are much better than the Cosby show,especially shows like All In The family and Maude.

I just think the show was more funny and entertaining when he was on it.The later episodes are still OK though.

Would you take the Cosby Show over the Penny Era of Good Times

No contest. I would watch the WORST Good Times episodes before the BEST Cosby show eps...never thought that show was funny at all.
