The trailer for the Netflix series “Good Times,” an animated revival of the 1970s sitcom, is out:
@Phil_Lewis_ As a Black American I can only speak for myself. This looks like dog crap. What on earth did I just watch? Good Times was about a strong Black American family making it through. What I just watched was a minstrel show filled with a bunch of negative Black stereotypes.
@Phil_Lewis_ Why are Latinos writing black stories?
@Phil_Lewis_ This is disrespectful & distasteful. They took a show that was based on a solid hardworking family into a cartoon caricature of Black America. Tried to guise it under the show "Good Times" smmfh.
@Phil_Lewis_ This look like a whole bunch of 🦝ery.
@Phil_Lewis_ Nah just give me the Boondocks because they warned us about this.
@Phil_Lewis_ i see they just threw in every stereotype in the book for this show
@Phil_Lewis_ i can already tell this ‘good times’ is a gross caricaturization of a black family in the hood. i’ll pass on this, and i don’t expect most black people to actually be entertained by this…
@Phil_Lewis_ I was expecting to see David Duke in the credits after all that lmfao
@Phil_Lewis_ Hard pass. The essence of Good Times was a solid family working hard to make their lives better in the system of inequality. Nobody needs Bebe’s kids mixed in with a hood rat mom, bad ass kids, and a fat sloppy dad.
