JJ: You'll never see a poor black family on TV again

Ahead of "The Seventies," Jimmie "J.J." Walker of "Good Times" fame joined Carol Costello to discuss how television has changed in the last four decades. You can watch classic episodes of Good Times in the WWETV CLASSIC COMEDY SECTION with our playlists.

In the interview above he spoke about how "Good Times" was "too black" when it started out for some people and had the 80's flip things around to an opposite family with The Cosby Show and today's similar product with "Black-ish". He speaks about how things are more segregated now than it was during the prime of "Good Times". You can watch "The Seventies" on CNN on Thursdays at 9pm.
