227 debuted on NBC on September 14, 1985 and ran for five seasons before going off the air on May 6, 1990. The show followed the lives of people in a middle-class apartment building, 227 Lexington Place, in Northeast, Washington, D.C. It was centered around Mary Jenkins, her husband, Lester, played by Hal Williams, who had his own construction company, and their daughter, Brenda, played by Regina King in her first television acting role, who was a smart and studious teen but still enjoyed getting into all the things that kids her age typical do.

@madddoggnogood1491 9 месяцев назад

@@alberthenley2988 in practice that sounds good but it's like with family matters......the shows premise was supposed to be one thing but because one character became so popular he became the star of the show. Harriet was supposed to be the star of family matters but she went from starring to a supporting role. Everyone has an ego and that had to be a tough pill for her because here Harriet is with her own spin-off show but then this kid unintentionally steals it from her..same thing with 227 . This is supposed to be a family driven show bit all anyone cares about Jackee. Some veteran actors resent younger actors. Look at the first aunt Viv and Will Smith . She was jealous of will because he wasn't a trained actor, he was a rapper and here he was with his own show while she been grinding for decades . Not saying she was right because the show was about him.....but she resented him

This is was awesome video on 227! However, you forgot to mention the Sheryl Lee Ralph connection? Originally, the network executives wanted Sheryl to play the part of Sandra Clarke. However, Marla Gibbs thought Sheryl was too sophisticated for the role. When Jackee came in and auditioned for Sandra, Gibbs knew she WAS the one to pull it off because of her comedic timing. When Marla Gibbs appeared on the Sherri Show last year, she talked this but wouldn't mention the name of actress. However, Jackee did on her Instagram page the night when Sheryl Lee Ralph won the Emmy for her role on Abbott Elementary. Jackee said: " this is a full circle moment! Sheryl is the 2nd African American female to win an Emmy 35 years later. I was the 1st. Originally the NBC executives wanted Sheryl to play Sandra but, Marla fought for me and I ended in the role and won an Emmy in 1987. I'm so happy for Sheryl "

(5:05) ...and, they KNEW of the behind-the scenes accounts..... 2. ....It was THIS scene, that shot the show into the stratosphere....(7:01) ....EASILY....my favorite scene though, was when Brenda got a job, and saw how MUCH they take out (after taxes), in her 1st check... ".....WHO'S 'FICA', and why is he takin' all my MONEY!???" ...ha-HAAA!! 3. ....and speaking of 'Brenda'.....NO-ONE thought Regina King would go on to greatness....N-O One!! ....It's a true testament to hanging in there, honing your craft, & gettin' those FLOWERS..... 4. ....VERY SMART move, keeping 'Lester' (3:18) ...it became a RARE instance, showing a True "BLACK LOVE" on the small screen..... 5. ....that last (5th) Season, was *ABYSMAL* ....there are certain Shows, where One 'acts' as if it NEVER existed; THAT Season, was One of them....Toukie!? ...STONEY!!??? *...NO......* ....ONE BONUS, though....when Kim Fields appeared on an Episode (playing a shy Girl who gets a makeover by Sandra), and becomes a Vamp....ta-DAAA!!

This was an amazing show with an excellent cast. The show "In Living Color" did a couple terrific parodies, one being called '2 2 Ethnic' and another skit with Jackee Harry as a Stewardess.

I love the show especially the first 3 seasons because it was a balance of all the characters getting a chance to have a stories but then it became Sandra show in the 4th season. Overall the show better then what is on today.

@mrty8330 9 месяцев назад

I think that's why the show began to go downhill in the 4th season, it became too oversaturated with Sandra.

In My Senior Year In High School ( Fall Of 1985 ) In Los Angeles, My English Class Went On A Field Trip To The Filming Of An Episode Featuring The Late Julius Carry ( Sho’Nuff In The Last Dragon That Came Out In March 1985 ) . The Late Luther Vandross Was In The Audience Sitting With Marla Gibbs’ Son! The Show Was Filmed @ KTTV Channel 11 Studios In Hollywood,CA During Its Run On NBC! Luther ( 👏🙏🏾) Greeted Our Class, Signed Autographs & Told Us To Stay In School, Avoid Trouble & Pursue Our Dreams & Goals! 😎💯👌

I've been watching the reruns on Tubi.. Sandra Clark always switched jobs but was never evicted.. Maurice must've been her sugar daddy. Tiffany was around for a couple of seasons and then just vanished, Brenda and Calvin was definitely doing more than just talking because their guardians were always too wrapped up in stuff going on that they forget to check on them. 😂😂 Let's not forget the real reason that Mary really didn't like Sandra was because Lester was looking a little too hard. Fun Fact: Kevin Peter Hall was Harry in Harry and the Hendersons.

@abundantlywealthy8642 10 месяцев назад

It’s sad that people have to be intimidated by another’s success I’m sure Jackee wasn’t an angel however Marla should’ve understood they were two different people from two different generations. Secondly I feel bad for the young lady that played Tiffany her mom didn’t even give her a chance at all her daughter was blessed with an opportunity people don’t receive everyday I wonder if she still low key resents her for that? Thirdly I’m sorry Countess had to hear whatever the comment that was made about her that’s awful. Lastly I am a huge tv/sitcom fanatic dating back to 1983 I’ve always noticed when a show was going to come to an end they started adding random characters that just didn’t make any sense and honestly made no dent in the show🤷🏾‍♀️
