Where Are They Now? The Cast of “Good Times”
John Amos
James Evans, Sr was the hard-working father of the Evans clan. He did numerous jobs to keep a roof over his family’s head, and that’s probably why he, like Florida, didn’t take any mess from any of his kids (or anybody for that matter). He had a fiery temper, but also had a good sense of humor that made him lovable. Unfortunately, we know his character was killed in a car crash around the third season, so what was he doing after the fact? A lot! He did work on the “Mary Tyler Moore Show,” “All About the Andersons,” and appeared on “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.” He also did a lot of film work, including The Player’s Club, Coming to America, Die Hard 2, and is currently working on Madea’s Witness Protection. He is also the writer/producer of a a one-man show called, “Halley’s Comet.”
