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?
