I agree with the late Johnny Brown..."Buffalo Butt" was overused on "Good Times".

Speaking of "Good Times"...anyone else tired of Jimmie Walker and his obnoxious Medicare Advantage ads? Oh well, guess one can't expect much from a friend of Ann Coulter's. If you haven't seen these ads, they are both sad and comical.

Once, I read that whenever Jimmie "J. J." Walker was approached in, say, an airport, by an over-enthusiastic fan who would request he perform his catch phrase "Dyn-O-Mite!" that he would only do so if said fan wrote him an on-the-spot check for $500.00.

Yes, I realize that many 1970s sitcom stars did not command Seinfeld/Friends/Big Bang calibre salaries and are pretty
much consigned to the autograph "circuit." Still, it's sad to see Jimmie Walker reduced to doing these buffoonery-fueled Medicare Advantage spots which air primarily over "fogey" oriented channels, such as Antenna-TV, Buzzr, Decades. Me-TV, et. al.

However, I am willing to wager that Walker probably wouldn't have landed this dubious gig had he not agreed to play once again with "Dyn-O-Mite!"

As for Johnny Brown's passing: "DAMN! DAMN! DAMN!"

They also frequently mispronounced his last name as 'Booger' instead of Bookman.

I forgot that. I'm sure 10 year olds found that amusing.
