[@dlighted1277]

I remember watching when this series debuted. It was definitely Redd Foxx's comeback. Hilarious from the first episode, then suddenly and sadly over after Mr. Foxx's untimely death. It was a shame that the show did not get a chance to be fully realized, because it would have definitely been an emmy winning hit. The whole family were perfectly cast, even the children's mom whom a lot of people criticized, but I thought brought the right balance to her character. It was the first time I saw little Naya Rivera. I never watched Glee, but it was nice to know that she was still acting, and sad to hear that her young life had ended. Thank you to the poster, for this video. I had never seen it before, and it brought back a lot of happy memories of days gone by🙂💖🙏.

[@TorreanoLamont]

Well with the mess that happened i’m kind of glad it did suffer. Let me explain. Redd Foxx had was already Being abused by the producers before the death occurred. On the day at his death producer said I have to teach you to be funny (which was A constant comment to A comedian legend wtf) and he was pissed but didn’t say nothing. Later on that day during the rehearsals he decided (because his part was small and did not include any lines. Just a simple walk across or behind the couch) That he was going to do an interview with entertainment tonight. One of the people that worked On Set caught an attitude (his view was because he was in the scene he had to be there), interrupted The interview abruptly, grabbed Redd by the arm like a child and brought him back to the set. Then proceeded to say first I gotta teach you to be funny now this. Redd foxx cursed everybody out before doing his part and continued doing so while mumbling (So if he could just part). Unfortunately when he got to the couch he had a heart attack. Some people wasn’t concerned (because he would do his fake heart attacks) But Della Reese knew something was up (almost instantly) and when over. He said call his wife twice and died on set. They revived him but he died (for good). Once everything happened everybody (including the producers) was at the hospital. The producers had the audacity to say now what are we gonna do because this script was written for Della and Redd and then the wife said something. Della knew that it wasn’t the truth and in her words she breaked And cursed the everybody out. Della Reese mentioned that she was that it was mostly aimmed at the wife and that was the day she said that was the last day she was going to do tv shows in this way again. She also mentioned that she didn’t care for the fact that they didn’t give him an proper send off on the show and although Jackee is talented they should’ve never acted like that was the replacement.

This show actually had high ratings, before the death of Redd Foxx's. I wanted to last longer, when the show wasn't the fresh show that it was without Redd. They got Jackee Harry (one of Marla Gibbs's protegees) to save the show...that didn't work, so the show was canceled. However, Della did a lot better after the death of Redd, that within a few short years, she was asked/approached to do one of the leads in: "Touched By An Angel", on which she stayed on the show for 9 seasons & continues to play the channels in reruns, heavily. There are 5-6 stations that played: "Touched By An Angel". #RIP Redd Foxx (1922-1991) & #RIP Della Reese (1931-2017).
