It's about a black family living in the projects in the 70s, who struggled, but hung together because they had a lot a love and character.
If you listen to the lyrics of the theme you see it provides a study in contrast. Even though there living situation is "hand me down" and their subject to the disadvantages of "easy credit rip offs" they still find away to be content and have "good times" being with each other, and staying positive through there struggles.
Oh hell naw. All in the Family and especially The Jeffersons ran too long; the late years were watered down. This show ended just about on time. Really it could have ended a year earlier with the mom gone, and the son in law moving in. It was getting a bit ridiculous with all those grown folks still living in the same project apartment.
I hear John Amos saying, "Good Times was recorded on tape before a live audience" during the first three seasons. The remaining seasons had Jimmie Walker saying "Good Times was videotaped in front of a studio audience."

This show (and "Maude") ended too soon, it should've stayed on longer like "All in the Family" and "The Jeffersons".
