Since Sunday, Feb 8, 2004 will be the 30th anniversary of Good Times - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I wonder if TV LAND will have any special tribute to Good Times like a marathon or some type of special boxset. But knowing TV LAND, they won't. My local UPN station here in Philadelphia aired a Good Times marathon last sunday instead of waiting until Sunday, Feb 8th. I guess they forgot about the 30th Anniversary also.

It would be nice to see a marathon of some sort somewhere.

Since the second season dvd set will be released Tuesday February 3rd, I'll be having my own personal Good Times marathon.

Do you know if it will be in the stores or just the internet? If it's in the stores then i can have my own marathon too.

I thought you said that you refuse to buy DVD's?

I was talking about the seasons without James. Only 1-2-3 seasons. I doubt if season 5 will ever be out on DVD.

Yes it should be in stores. When the first season set came out last year, I got it at a Target store the day it was released. I have a strong feeling though, now that season 2 of Good Times is coming and season 4 of Sanford is coming, they're gonna release all 6 seasons of Good Times on dvd. All of those Columbia tv season sets are relatively inexpensive so I don't think they're losing money by releasing season after season, and they're going make all seasons available to fans who want to buy them.

I will be surprised if Season 5 is pulled off the shelves

Because in that season, there was no James and Florida.

They'll sell at least one copy, because if it ever comes out, I'm buying it.

Why so you can see Penny?-LOL

I will buy all 6 seasons of Good Times because I loved the whole cast. Yes, it was a little dry without James and Florida, but I also enjoyed Thelma, Michael and yes...even J.J.

I will be amazed if all 6 seasons came out.

I would be surprised if you actually knew something about sitcoms.
