Easily-Offended Black Audiences Launch Petition Against Animated “Good Times” Revival

The producers of Good Times: Black Again should be happy to learn that they are in good company because a Change.org petition has reached 5000 signatures, largely signed by easily-offended black audiences, to get the series canceled!

The reason why I saw the producers of Good Times should be excited to hear this news is because almost always when an animated comedy strikes up a conversation like this it means it’s really good as franchises like Big Mouth, The Simpsons, Family Guy, and others have all had their fair share of petitions by all sorts of shit activist groups from both sides of the political aisles so that means the series is about something and people are talking about it. In fact, the series premiered at #5 on Netflix’s most-watched list and that’s with almost ZERO press support from the biggest streamer in the world.

In this irreverent reimagining of the TV classic, a new generation of the Evans family keeps their heads above water in a Chicago housing project. An unfiltered adult comedy with the voices of Yvette Nicole Brown, J.B. Smoove, Wanda Sykes and more.
