In the mid-1970s, Good Timesmade a star of actor/comedian Jimmy 'JJ'/'Dynomite' Walker. However, behind the scenes, the tension between the stars was relatively challenging. According to what Jimmie Walker once relayed, most of the show's cast rarely had any interaction behind the camera. Walker didn't recall having any conversations with actress Esther Rolle, who played his TV mother, Florida Evans, or actor John Amos, who played James Evans, his TV mother.

Hollywood child stardom has taken its toll on many actors through the decades. Lani O'Grady, for one, found fame in the 1970s on the TV family series, Eight is Enough. O'Grady followed in the footsteps of her brother, actor Don Grady, an original Mouseketeer and member of another popular TV family show: My Three Sons. Their mother, Mary B. Grady, was a talent agent who represented several child actors. But Lani, who would also eventually become an agent, died in 2001 just one week before what would have been her 47th birthday.

The beginning of the 2024 college football season is less than two weeks away, and with that in mind, ESPN has released its final preseason SP+ rankings from ESPN’s Billy Connelly.
SP+ is an analytics-based system that focuses on how teams play rather than the wins and losses, and it’s a metric that likes LSU quite a bit entering the 2024 season.
The Tigers ranked in the top 10 of the final rankings, coming in at No. 10. The offense is expected to be elite, ranking No. 2 entering the season, and the defense is at least expected to be improved, coming in at No. 38.
SP+ is much less high on LSU’s special teams unit, which ranks just 83rd entering the season.
The Tigers will hope to compete for a College Football Playoff spot in 2024, but it won’t be easy. Despite ranking in the top 10, four SEC teams — Georgia, Alabama, Texas and Ole Miss — rank above LSU entering the season.
