I know alot of people don't like this episode, but the writers that scripted this episode (Kim Weiskopf & Michael S. Baser) are my favorite comedy writers from that era.

Their stories seem so fast paced. Look at their later works
Three's Company - Season 4 (The New Landlord, A Camping We Will Go and Handcuffed)

That being said....I've never seen Florida move so much or so fast in all 6 seasons of Good Times, than I have in the first 6 minutes of this episode

Esther Rolle usually doesn't move around much on Good Times, a few steps here, a few steps there...even in the "let's put on a show" episodes.

In this particular episode, you had Willona getting her off the couch to run to the coffee table for gossip, then she runs after Willona as she's leaving to finish her laundry...even trying to catch Willona as she ran out the door

Start @ 3:45

The beginning was kind of weird though because they way making came storming in you would have thought he was suspended, in danger of failing, or a broken heart

Not having a CRUSH
