17. I always wondered what happened to her. I remember being younger, watching the show, thinking she was the most beautiful girl on TV. She still looks amazing. I would like to look as good as she does at 30......

18. She always looked good, even a few years ago. I think she is one of those rare people that really does age well. You go girl!

23. I am so glad TMZ is bringing up pics of the Good Times cast members. I loved the pic of Ralph Carter a few days back, and now Thelma! People, if you have never seen this show, I have to tell you...this is the greatest show EVER! The characters are relatable, the show is off the charts with the unique sense of humor portrayed, and the situations are just timeless. I mean, they make jokes about the price of food and gas, they criticize the economy and current president.....and this was 1974!! It makes you realize how nothing has changed! I wish I could have met Esther Rolle, I think she was the best mother ever!!
I hope the cast is doing well and this show will have many more fans as the years go on, I know.

24. To daveedt: Black people do not wrinkle when we age. We don't need surgery like others to maintain beauty.

25. I loved Good Times! Being a young white girl...even I wished I looked like Thelma. She was and still is GORGEOUS.

26. You know, the reason tv was so much better in those days is because they had a social message. There was morality to consider. Little House..Good Times, All in the Family....and others. What do we have now? Our kids are being exposed to reality tv crap. pphttt.
