>Born into the violence of South Bronx ghetto life, the comic pioneer of TV’s Good Times fame offers a hilarious and politically charged review of his career as one of television’s first hugely successful Black stars. From opening for the Black Panthers and getting his first Tonight Show spot to becoming the first “Black” TV sitcom star, having comedians David Letterman and Jay Leno writing jokes for him, recording number-one comedy albums, and opening for rock n’ roll bands in 50,000 seat stadiums, Walker’s career hit all the highs.

Jimmie Walker (known for his role on the hit show, Good Times) and Michael Winslow (known for his role in all the Police Academy films) perform in this hilarious special featuring stories, jokes, and all the bleeps and bloops you can handle.
