Get ready to revisit the beloved Evans family with the premiere of Netflix’s Good Times Animated Series on April 12. Don’t miss out
Netflix is set to deliver a nostalgic treat to audiences with the upcoming premiere of the animated comedy series, “Good Times,” reviving the beloved classic that captured the hearts of viewers during the 1970s.
Scheduled to start streaming on April 12, the anticipation is palpable among television enthusiasts eager to revisit the iconic Evans family in a whole new format. “Good Times” follows the fourth generation of the Evans family residing in apartment 17C of the last remaining housing projects in Chicago.
As they navigate life’s challenges, viewers can expect a blend of humor, heart, and relatable family dynamics that made the original series a timeless favorite.
With a star-studded voice cast including Jay Pharoah, Marsai Martin, Yvette Nicole Brown, JB Smooth, and Slink Johnson, the animated adaptation promises to capture the essence of its predecessor while introducing a fresh spin on the beloved characters.
Created by Mike Evans and Eric Monte, the original “Good Times” broke new ground as television’s first African American two-parent family sitcom. A spinoff of Norman Lear’s “Maude,” which itself originated from “All in the Family,” the series resonated with audiences for its authentic portrayal of working-class life in urban America.
Executive produced by Norman Lear’s Act III Productions, along with Stephen Curry and Unanimous Media, and Seth MacFarlane and Erica Huggins for Fuzzy Door, the animated revival stays true to the spirit of the original while infusing it with modern sensibilities.
Fans of the classic sitcom can look forward to a fresh take on familiar themes, as the Evans family grapples with contemporary issues against the backdrop of their beloved Chicago neighborhood.
From financial struggles to the enduring bonds of family, “Good Times” promises to deliver a mix of laughter, nostalgia, and heartfelt moments. In addition to its stellar voice cast and creative team, “Good Times” boasts musical supervision from producer 9th Wonder, adding another layer of authenticity to the series.
As Netflix prepares to premiere this highly anticipated animated adaptation, audiences can expect to be transported back in time while also enjoying a contemporary twist on a beloved classic.
With its April 12 release date fast approaching, “Good Times” is poised to become the next must-watch series for viewers of all ages.
