A Question for the Sitcom Analyzer (or anyone else who cares to answer)

[W.J. Griffin]

Okay, Solomon...I know you're not all that crazy about J.J. 'cause you think he's a goof, but how do you think it would have worked on "Good Times" if J.J. was the militant voice on the show instead of Micheal? Do you think it would have changed the focus of the show? Would viewers take J.J. seriously as a political animal?

I await your reply.

I think if he was less of a goof the show would hAve been a ot better. I enjoyed the LAID BACK J.J in the first 5 eps. They should have left him that way. Well in regards to J.J being the political animal, I don't think it would have worked because he was much older. I think Micheal was able to get away with it because he was a child. So if J.J was the political voice, I think his view would have been taken a little more seriously.
