![]() They had to use the men's room to change clothes? Why didn't their set have at least one dressing room (and does that mean that Aunt Esther and Donna had to use the ladies' room to change?)?
And to think since Norman Lear had produced it, I would have thought he'd have been more fair than that (even if the show rarely ventured into politics). |

According to this, the dispute was because Redd Foxx demanded a dressing room with a window, rather than there being no dressing room. According to the LA Times, Redd also demanded $1 more than what Carroll O'Connor was making on All in the Family. And according to this book, Redd Foxx had a dressing room. The TV Party link goes on to say that Desmond Wilson had a cocaine problem, and pulled a gun on Norman Lear. It doesn't sound as though Desmond Wilson is a reliable source. |

![]() Washed up celebrities often engage in revisionist history. I loved the show but Redd Foxx was a notorious troublemaker and complainer on the set and amazingly LaWanda Page supposedly supplied most of the cast with drugs.

I've witnessed some very inconsistent statements in Demond Wilson's book and different interviews, so I don't know how reliable of a source he is, but I will say that I think that he is probably right about us living in the last days.

People have been predicting the end of the world for the past 2000 years or so. The Worldwide Church of God announced an end time in 1936. It didn't happen. The Jehovah's Witnesses believed the world would end in Autumn 1975. It didn't happen. I certainly recall the "end of the world" panic on 12-31-1999 and 6-6-06. How many more "end times" will there be? ![]() |

Even though I believe that we're probably living in the last days I wouldn't ever try to predict a specific date since the Bible says that no one knows the day or the hour (Matthew 24:36). |
