If you like classic TV shows like Good Times.....
 
......then you need to check out TVParty.com. It is the BOMB. It has TONS of sections for classic TV fans, even a Good Times section featuring RealPlayer clips of the show. It also features an Amos 'n Andy section that IMHO is a MUST SEE! Includes kids shows such as Romper Room and Wonderama, even the once-popular show ZOOM! If you have RealPlayer, you gotta see it. Oh, and did I mention it even features a Game Shows '74 section, and a clip of Casey Kasem cussing his brains out live on the radio.

Check it out and lemme know whatcha think.

Not from what I can see, although they do have a section on the show "Wild Wild West" in the Mysteries and Scandals section.

ALSOOOOOO.....

They have a section of Variety shows, including the Richard Pryor show, the Lola Falana Show, the Redd Foxx show, and the New Bill Cosby show, with a cool opening clip featuring the intro with who? Lola Falana. Y'see, nowadays everybody gets their own talk show, but back then everybody had a variety show.

Mysteries and scandals, network promos, even a clip of the Flintstones promoting Winston cigarettes on TV. Check it out!!!!

It's got more stuff than I have time to write it all, it's all that!

Currently, at TVParty.com...

There is an article on What's Happening [Now], it's origins, how it did in the ratings, the stars mood swings, etc.

Did you know that the reason for Good Times, the Jeffersons, and What's Happening was due to a young black man named Eric Monte, who was portrayed by Glynn Turman in a movie called COOLEY HIGH. He was an aspiring Hollywood writer who made it big. So yes, the next time you reminisce on those shows, give Eric a shout-out for making it all possible.

OH, and I found the clip I was looking for. This is the Romper Room clip where Miss Molly was in a very serious discussion with a kid on gun safety. This kid thinks he knows how to handle a gun when the truth is, he doesn't!! Do you think this is a precursor to all the deaths attributed to youths and guns?
