Good Times: The Complete Third Season

Last Minute Sales & Specials

"Good Times" (1974-1979), which was a spin-off of the "All in the Family" spin-off "Maude," details the trials and tribulations of an African-American family living in the projects on the south side of Chicago. Florida Evans (Esther Rolle), her husband James (John Amos), their wisecracking son J.J. (Jimmy Walker, whose "Dy-No-Mite" became a popular 1970s catchphrase), and neighbor and best friend Willona (Ja'net Du Boise) exploited, to great comic effect, subjects like inflation, unemployment, and bigotry. This three-disc collection contains all 24 classic episodes from the third season, when "Good Times" tackled topical themes from venereal disease to the U.S. Bicentennial and plot points like J.J.'s surprising engagement, Thelma's man troubles, Michael's problems in school, and James buying a gun to protect his family from local crime.
