Good Times (Season 3) DVD Review

Nominated for three Golden Globes, Good Times premiered in mid-season 1974 to widespread critical acclaim and audience popularity. A spin-off of the Bea Arthur (of Golden Girls fame) sitcom Maude (1972), Good Times became the fourth of five highly successful sitcoms brought into being during the 1970's decade by Norman Lear. In addition to Maude, those sitcoms were All In The Family (1971), Sanford & Son (1972), and The Jeffersons (1975). The second of three to focus exclusively on African-American family life, Good Times became a source for groundbreaking social commentary in compliment to its penchant for hilarious family comedy

The Good Times (Season 3) DVD features a number of hilarious episodes including the season premiere A Real Cool Job in which James, having taken a number of courses at a trade school, is finally offered the high-paying job of his dreams. But there's a catch, the job requires a transfer to the frozen tundra of Alaska Other notable episodes f rom Season 3 include Love in the Ghetto in which Thelma announces she's engaged, much to the chagrin of James and Florida, and The Mural in which J.J. paints a mural for a bank in order to earn the money necessary for Thelma to attend college
