    Good God I miss TV from 1960 -90. 70s was best - Perry Mason, Marcus Welby, Dallas, Dynasty, Falcon Crest, Little House on the Prairie, CHIPs, Murder She Wrote, Matlock, MASH, and on and on and on. I could laugh and cry and not feel guilty. US TV today is all propaganda, nasty, crude, and dumbed down.

    I clearly remember that my friends and myself would watch the “Dallas” episode every Friday night before going to the club to party. We’d have a “cocktail” along with “Sue Ellen”. For the final episode “Who Shot JR” ? You could have told us the men of all our dreams was only going to be at the club for the during of the “Dallas” episode and we would have said “What a drag. Oh well”. Poured another glass of wine and/or champagne and watched the show. There was NOTHING on the planet that was going to keep us from watching that last episode. Oh simpler times.

She was also on Good Times, The Jeffersons, she played a hooker on All In The Family and her last role was in CSI: Miami. She played an uncredited nurse. She started the West Palm Beach, Florida, Quest Theater and Institute that promotes dramatic training for black children.

    So, as a little girl growing up on the east side of Detroit in the 1970s, I loved variety shows. And my dad loved Flip Wilson, the Smothers Brothers, and Laugh-In, all of which I was allowed to watch (I was only 3 I think, though, when the SB got cancelled). I loved Geraldine, the way she dressed, the way she acted - she was a role model. I mean at that age, I didn't know what racism was because I treated everyone the same. My folks didn't tell me to hate black people, and they had prejudices themselves - but they never pushed them on me. I still have my dad's copy of "Cowboys and Colored People" and my son loves it.

Flip and my mother were good friends and Flip would have lunches and dinners at my house. Flip was a real nice man, and we enjoyed each other company.
