(More customer reviews)James, Florida, J.J, Thelma, Michael, & Willona are back! Finally the second season of Good Times is here, following the first season release by at least a year!! Well, it was worth the wait and more because Season 2 includes almost double the episodes of the first season and the packaging is a colorful and fun double-fold case featuring great photos of the entire cast! What's better is the set can be purchased at a very reasonable price. The second season of Good Times ran from Sept. '74 to March '75 and consists of the 24 episodes included here uncut and commercial free! The only extra features are trailers for similar sitcoms and the blessed "play all episodes" feature! Hey, having Good Times on DVD in season form is special enough! It is, pardon me, Dynomite! Here's the episodes included:

Trivia:
*When Good Times started (1974), J.J and Thelma, who were supposed to be in high school, were in real life, 27 and 21 respectively! Michael was actually 13.
*Esther Rolle and John Amos were actually 19 years apart. Esther was 54 and John was 35.
*John Amos (James Evans) left the show after the 3rd season. He was written off the show as having died in a car accident while in Mississippi where he found a good job. The character of Carl Dixon (Moses Gunn) that is introduced in late season 4, proposes to Florida and she accepts.
*Esther Rolle left Good Times during season 5 because of unhappiness with the show's direction and of the J.J. character. She was written out of the season as being away on her honeymoon with Carl. She returned as Florida, the rock of the Evans family, for season 6, which was the final season.
Esther Rolle (1920-1998)
Moses Gunn (1929-1993)
