*sigh* I get SO annoyed At Esther when she starts that shouting... "Ohh GLORY, Hallelujah"! It's just SO annoying, and not at all funny! And she never says it at appropriate moments. It's as if she's having a spasm attack or something. The only main reason I like Esther is because she leaves the door wide open for some of Fred Sanford's funniest jokes and insults. My mom told me that my grandma didn't like watching this show because she felt Esther's character was blasphemous.
@MrHossCartwright It's NOT that serious!!!!! -- you're being too up tight, Just take the character for what it is, & LAUGH! The whole point of the character ( Esther), which red foxx talked about in his interview with CBS in 76' is to underline how so many believers & non believers ( even TODAY) , take the bible out of content, context, use it in error, or try to twist/manipulate its meaning. This character wasn't created to mock faith, it was created to expose people who abuse it.
@MrHossCartwright Esther represents some ppl we know, they're zealous, a little fanatical, over the top, a lil' misguided at times--- but they do seek to do good. AND that's what makes her character lovable, they see the good in Esther even in her error. Lamont seems to iron out the confusion when he gently corrects Esther in her wrong & Fred in his. So loosen up, - it's not at all what U think. besides people's contradictions can be very humorous- lol- Just think about your own.
OMG thank you so much i'm on a site that list the episodes and they told me the name of it was Aunt Esther meets her son. I couldnt find it THANKS A MILLION!
@beautifulsarah100 Thaaaats the most retarded comment i've seen in youtube so far. Followed closely by the comments explaining her "loveableness". Shes just annoying, and retarded.. allmost embaressing to hear her.. or see her
Redd Foxx and Lawanda Page were underrated actors. After hearing their stand-up routines, you can see a big different between Fred and Redd and Esther and Lawanda.
LOL that's the same old lady in the begining of the Movie "Friday" as a Jahova's witness..LOL "Well Fuck you....Half dead motha fucka....c'mon sista....c'mon sista!"
They messed up the continuity in that scene though because how is Aunt Esther able to move her neck around like that as she's praising the Lord if she was suppose the have whip-lash?
if she was, you'd just let her cuckold you. mattharden1982, the world's oldest infant. Marvel at his lack of intelligence why don't you?! Some call the circus. I want to take this out on the road.

But whatever, I loved this series.
PurplePetal04 2 years ago 2
Purple, The neckbrace is to help the victim of whiplash keep their head straight, not lock it in place.
Furthermore, in another episode this conversation between Esther and Grady:
Esther- "This neckbrace comes off on Friday".
Grady- "How do you know it comes off on Friday?"
Esther- (grining) "Because the trail is on Thursday!"
Funny how she always accused Fred of crooked schemes, yet, commiting fraud herself.
