Anyone else notice that back then, TV shows lasted 26 minutes out of a half hour? Today's 'half hour' shows last 20 minutes.

I'm here watching this show for the first time. All I'd ever heard was that it's very racist. If anyone can explain how, I'd like to know. I'd braced myself for curly wigs, big lips and "Oh yass sir, yass sir, right away sir!" It's a standard sitcom!

You've got to love this cast. I always get a good laugh out of this show. The NAACP took the ax to this show because of complaints from the blacks. It was cut off too short...these actors should have their stars on the walks of Hollywood Blvd with the greats!

No matter what the NAACP tried to claim about Amos N Andy the fact of the matter is that it was a groundbreaking show, the first tv series with an all black cast. Some years ago I saw a documentary about the show that featured an interview with none other than Jesse Jackson who talked about what a big step forward it was for black actors. Too bad the NAACP was too pig-headed to realize that.

Thank you for posting this! I just came across it by accident and I want you to know as a very very young child I loved this show! Years ago I even went to the New York Museum of Broadcasting to watch episodes there. I don't think it's a racist show just a very funny sitcom! I'm a subscriber to your channel now.
