Speaking of Season 4, if you watched the second episode all the way to the end, you would see the perfect example of what Delayed Grief looks like from the late Esther Rolle (Florida Evans). #RIPJohnAmos www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cU1...

Rest in peace, John Amos.
One of the best American actors ever.

Stellar as the father on Good Times. Remember, Esther Rolle said that if there were no father on the show, she would not take the role.
She was right.
