In the First 3 seasons, Michael focused on being a lawyer and in the last 3 seasons he was always singing on stage. What did Michael want to be?_LOL

Probably both...Start out a singer, and if that does not work out, then go to Law School, take the bar exam, then become a lawyer..I can see Michael as an excellent lawyer; debating with his family on a daily basis with every topic under the sun...and always having the last word..or trying to have the last word...

When you get the episode of Thelma's wedding, tell me what you thought of Michael's singing at the wedding. He seemed like he was trying to imitate Michael Jackson in Rent Party

Then there was another episode when Michael and three other guys were copying the Jackson 5. Michael was the lead singer and the 3 men was in the background with Afro's just like the Jacksons-LOL I guess they didn't want to copy them too much so that's why they only had 3 background singers.

No defense to anyone that happens to be a fan of Michael; but I never did like him very much...I never thought seeing children or young teen-agers acting like or sounding like adults to be appealing or funny..I like seeing characters to act around their age group...

Now it was the opposite for J.J in season one. In the first season he wasn't annoying. But in season two his goofiness started to slowly increase while Micheal's annoyance started to slowly decrease. Willona would not have been my type of woman because she was too Ghetto.

I have a DID YOU KNOW? Remember the episode I sent you Debutante Ball? Remember the Girl who played J.J girlfriend? She also played Grady's Granddaughter on the Sanford and Son Spinoff called-GRADY in 1975

I like the clothes that Willona wore...Rita Riggs the designer was famous for designing women clothes on most the of the sitcoms of the 1970's...

Yeah..I did know that..I also believe the same actress posed for playboy, too....

I think Ralph Carter put out a record during the 1970s.

Judy Cohen Story--That episode is probably my least favorite episode of Good Times ever. But I liked everytime they had Michael sing on the show, especially the "Rent Party" episode. When he finishes the song, you see Florida's reaction, all happy, proud and excited you would think Esther Rolle was watching her real-life son performing.
