Lost in this weekend's coverage of the death of James Brown is the sad news that the man who gave us Lionel Jefferson has passed at the age of 57. Mike Evans may not have actually been from Queens, but since he's "movin' on up" now, we'll just pretend he was. Evans, a "credit to his race," evidently didn't "stifle himself," as had been reported previously. Rather, the co-creator of Good Times had been suffering from a form of throat cancer he'd inherited from Weezie, his appropriately named TV mother.
