Oct 12, 2024 · The second spinoff of All in the Family was Good Times, and it did even more to bring the lived experience of Black Americans to households across 1970s America (although, technically, it was a spinoff of Maude).
Good Times is an American television sitcom that aired for six seasons on CBS, from February 8, 1974, to August 1, 1979. Created by Eric Monte and Mike Evans and developed by executive producer Norman Lear, it was television's first African American two-parent family sitcom. It is a spin-off of Maude, itself a spin-off of All in the Family.
- “Maude” (1972-78) The title character, played by Bea Arthur, was a tall, ultra-liberal feminist who drove Archie crazy; she was introduced in as Edith’s cousin in two “All in the Family” episodes in the 1971-72 season.
- “Good Times” (1974-79) It was a spinoff of a spinoff, centering on Maude’s maid Florida (Esther Rolle) and her family. Lear said “Good Times” (created by Mike Evans and Eric Monte) was the “first full Black family on television,” meaning two parents and more than one kid.
- “The Jeffersons” (1975-85) The sitcom was about the black family who had lived next door to the Bunkers, but “Good Times” was partly responsible. In his autobiography, Lear wrote that three members of the Black Panther Party came to his office at CBS, complaining about “Good Times”: “Every time you see a Black man on the tube, he is dirt poor, wears shit clothes, can’t afford nothing.
- “Archie Bunker’s Place” (1979-1983) This show debuted after the wrap of “All in the Family.” Archie Bunker (Carroll O’Connor) and his new partner Murray (Martin Balsam) run a tavern in Queens.
- Maude (1972–1978 — 141 episodes plus pilot on All In The Family) In the season two episode Cousin Maude’s Visit, Edith’s liberal cousin Maude Findlay (Beatrice Arthur) comes to help out when the Bunkers are sick with the flu.
- Good Times (1974–1979 — 133 episodes) Stage actress Esther Rolle shows up in the third episode of Maude as Florida, an African–American housecleaner who has little patience for Maude’s political correctness.
- The Jeffersons (1975–1984 — 253 episodes plus pilot on All In The Family) Unlike Arthur and Rolle, who were spun-off quickly, the Jeffersons were on All In The Family for five seasons before they got their own show.
- Archie Bunker’s Place (1979–1983 — 97 episodes) After eight seasons, Lear thought All In The Family had run its course, but O’Connor didn’t agree. Lear agreed to let O’Connor continue the series without him, but under one condition: he couldn’t call it All In The Family.
