  3. Happy 2 B Nappy

    Chello…Bossip, LMFAO!

  4. Nicefellow31

    JJ was a guest on the David Letterman show. Take a look at the sign in front of the stans. BTW there was a small electrical fire at that theatre on that very day that got some media attention. That is why I know what JJ was up to.

  5. Darth Paul

  13. ko

    Its his suit or something. Relax people


  14. Hey M Daddy, Did you ever see the Episode The Wayans did Of GOOD TIMES. It was sooooo funny!!!


  15. Now that I’m over my initial “ugh” response… I can say it is pretty sad when your TV dad is aging better than you are.


  16. Little Known Fact:

    Although JJ played a teenager on Good Times and John Amos played his father, Jimmy Walker is practically the same age as John. Wendy asked him how old her was and it turned out that JJ is now in his late 60s while Michael is still in his 40s.

  17. Mahogany

  20. Aint we lucky we got emmm!!!! Good Times Yeah!!!!

  21. Roni

    Even though he is still not the most attractive guy in the world, he looks better than he used too. He’s got Flav beat I think.
    Financially, he’s doing okay because he’s doing comedy productions if I’m not mistaken.


  22. GOTTDAYYYYUUUUMMM!

    LOOK AT MR.CRISPY!


  23. “Keepin’ your head above water, making a way when you can, temprorary lay-off (Good Times)”……..

    What was the next line? I could never get it. Used to put my ear r-e-a-l close to the T.V and “ish” to see if I could hear it! Lol!!!!!!!


  24. Good times trivia—

    Does anyone know the name of the projects? (hint) it was NOT Cabrini Green.


  25. G.T.T–

    What was the name of the “pimp?”

    What was Penny’s (Janet’s) mother’s name. The one before Willonna?

    Who was Bookman?

    Who was the drunk and why did Florida win for best ‘partment? he-he!!!!!!

    How did James die?


  26. He looks strange. Does he have some kind of skin disorder? Just curious.

  27. First

    Its a bag made to carry a suit or any other type of expensive clothing, that you want to protect…

  28. mzlynbkny

    Ahwww…….leave jj alone he can’t help that he looks like warmed over ish. Thats his parents fault!!!!!!


  29. @ Bird - LMBAO

    He ain’t in his late 60’s!!! LMAO

    is he?

  30. Bronx Brawler

    Damn David Letterman made him ride the bus to his show no car service for James Evans Jr.

  31. IgetIT

    JJ dont need any work really… Good Times comes on every day on TV LAND. So he get a check just for them playin an episode, it might not be a big check but its still more than what the BOSSIP staff is gettin.

  32. Kdogg

    Has anyone said this yet:

    “DAMN, DAMN, DAMN !!!!”

    BTW Bossip, Garment bags are usually big enough for the clothes to hang vertically.


  33. @BABY PLEASE…. YES HE IS THAT OLD!

    I REMEMBER HIM TALIKG ABOUT HIS AGE IN SOME INTERVIEW!


  34. IT WAS THE WENDY WILLIAMS SHOW ON THE RADIO!

  35. M-DADDY

  36. M-DADDY

    @yvonne

    Hangin in a chow line
    Good Times.
    Ain’t we lucky we got ‘em
    Good Times.

  37. missj

    ned the wino was the drunk and they won because they cleaned him up and his wife was on the award committe.
    i can’t remember penny’s real mom’s name but she was played by kim fields mother.
    james died in a car accident. “damn, damn, damn”.


  38. @ PUSSYCATFUN

    Dayum. I had no idea he was that old! LOL.

    Thanks for settin’ me straight.

    :)

  39. the fan

    He used to work as a writer for the David Letterman show after good Times and I am sure that he has done other “behind the seens” work, so I am sure that he is not on hard times. Bossip should not assume that all of the stars from back in the day are eating cat food.

  41. If ever there were a person, who looked like there name was “doo doo”…

  42. Its6amHoGetOut

    FIRST THAT BIG ASS BAG HE’S CARRYING IS FULL OF ALL HIS POSSESIONS IN THE WORLD.

    He doesnt get residuals from goodtimes, the jewish producers took total advantage of them, Thelma said so.

    You shouldnt praise goodtimes, that show was past stupid, whats to celebrate about a family living paycheck to paycheck in the projects?

    What sane father lets pimps into his house, cracks jokes and 22 minutes later theres a happy ending?

    I saw one episode where they paid all their bills and had $30 left over, they didnt know what to do with it so the asked michael if he wanted a new basketball, and thelma if she wanted to take dance lessons!

    Stupid ass shit!


  43. No M Daddy, did you see Micheals Nose. When Marlon played him.


  44. M Daddy, you are crazy. Did you get those words to the song off of the internet.

  45. M-DADDY

    @yvonne
    Yes I got it off the google search I was trying to find the whole song. LOL But hell yes Marlon Wayans is stupid as hell. LOL I still have a crush on Thelma though. LOL

  46. Sonuter Hurnot

    I understand that Jimmy Walker is doing quite well for himself. He is involved in a number of behind the scenes ventures. Also, he is very intelligent and centered.

  47. crest

    he is good friends with david letterman so dave will never let him starve because he gave dave his first big break by letting him open for him on the road.


  48. Thanks M-Daddy and missj–

    You set me straight because I thought James died of a heart attack.

    6–

    If there was still a BOSSIP corner, I’d sit you in it! Lol!!!!!!!!!!!!


  49. I think he emcees certain events and also does a bit of standup. I think it’s very interesting that he gave Letterman first first break.

    Ain’t it interesting how chances go ’round……..

  50. Latrelle

    Takes me back! Those were the good days! I can’t believe how cold these niggas are. We were cool back then. Not like the stupid niggas we have now. They are posing fools! These niggas now are giving the rest of us a bad name. No wonder we can’t get a break these days.

  51. I'maBitch!

    It’s a suit bag slung over his arm. How big ass does it look?

  52. Bet

    JJ was a secret crush back in the day. He really loved his family and was a good guy. I knew exactly how Penny felt.

  53. Miss Dee (The Incredible)

    Octavia

    Now that I’m over my initial “ugh” response… I can say it is pretty sad when your TV dad is aging better than you are.

    LMAO!!!!! You are definitely on point with that comment. I have to see JJ’s birth certificate and tax records in order for me to believe he’s the same age as DAYUM DAYUM DAYUM James Evans!!!


  54. He is a fool. He was on Chelsea Lately acting like a horny, old coon. I was not amused.

  55. just me

    Go to Wikipedia-he turned 60 this summer and has a lot of work doing stand-up, writing,directing etc. He does quite well!


  56. I used to love good times. Bookman was the handyman/manager of the building. The pimp’s name was “Sweet Daddy” I think.

  57. god

    wasn’t the saddest moment in tv history when james died?(the producers didn’t want to pay himthe average tv actor salary)

  58. dark cable

    @ 1tru diva

    What was the name of the “pimp?”
    Lenny “if I don’t got it, there ain’t any’….he wasn’t a pimp, he was a hustler.

    What was Penny’s (Janet’s) mother’s name. The one before Willonna?
    Her name was Bitch please…
    Who was Bookman?
    the building superintendent
    Who was the drunk and why did Florida win for best ‘partment? he-he!!!!!!
    (i don’t understand your question)
    How did James die?
    He died in an accident while working on the Alaskan pipeline.

  59. dark cable

    I saw Thelma in DC a couple years ago. Just as fine as ever!
    Did anyone else notice thar she was the only one in the family with a thick New York accent even though they were theoretically in Chicago?

    @ bird JJ is not in his late 60’s

  60. Nicole

    I thought the big bag comment was funny until I realized he was carrying a garment bag which makes him look normal and you look stupid. A garment bag is a bag for suits and clothing that you dont want to cram into a small bag you big lout. (go get the websters cause you KNOW you dont know what a lout is)

  61. bored

    “lillian….eddie shot Jimmie walker in his lips”

  62. shootalltheuglymen

    somebody shoot this guy! (not really serious), he looks fug!
