The guy playing Bud was a great actor. Knowing Hollywood (even in those days) he'd probably had a few lovers by the time he was making this series.

However, as a black American, the only thing I dislike about the show is like most shows set during the 50s black people didn’t exist. Other than that, this is a wonderful family comedy.

[@TheJetfighter666]

I know bro. It shows you what is was like back then. I couldn't imagine being black and never seeing my people represented on tv. Gotta give Props to Jack Benny. It was the 50's and Rochester was a top-billed co-star. Even better, Benny was Jewish!

Must be a very ambiguous feeling for every Afro-American that loves Americana vintage culture.

[@SailorSam41]

Wasn't Amos & Andy out there? I Spy, Redd Fox, and Louis Armstrong? Your race was a minority back then maybe more so than today and black people seemed to want to be separate from the whites rather than the other way around. I know because I grew up in close association with a black family. Their mother used to cut my hair and their 2nd son was one of the closest friends I've ever had. Later he even dated my cousin. Makes me wonder where some people get their memories. Whites in general are good people, so are blacks; long as they don't have that simmering hatred in their hearts. Edited to say - the hatred that goes both ways.

[@saran.4001]

There were not black people on TV shows because they objected to how they were portrayed. Amos and Andy got cancelled due to pressure from black organizations. But A & A had respectable characters, they dressed well, had jobs, did not engage in crime, etc. It was a comedy. Look at the white comedies They have silly people doing dumb things, or dramas with white crooks, they could portray whites any way they liked with no problem. Black people did it to themselves. They came back with Good Times, The Jeffersons, all those had black people with faults or being silly, just like the white people shows. Denzel Washington even said this.

[@nicolekat8758]
