Show Summary [edit]

One year after the demise of The Jeffersons, Sherman Hemsley returned to television to star in another hit sitcom as Ernest Frye, the lawyer and scheming deacon of First Community Church of Philadelphia, and who intended to keep it under his thumb. Unfortunately, the new minister, Rev. Reuben Gregory, had other ideas and every week he quietly deflated the strutting deacon. Both, of course, really had the church's best interests at heart. Frye's 30-year-old romantically frustrated daughter, Thelma, developed a massive crush on the new pastor. Other members of the church board included chattering sisters, Amelia and Casietta Hetebrink and Rolly, the board's wise old voice of reason.

I just so happen to skim past it on PAX and it brought back so many memories...I remember when I was young it used to show late night, and I would stay up watching it and hoping my mom didn't catch me!!!

It`s not coming on anymore because they`re showing Growing Pains. I`ve just noticed that. That`s not fair. I wish I had TV1.

I noticed that too. PAX kept "Charlie's Angels" and moved "Growing Pains" in "Amen"'s place. I kept checking the PAX and Yahoo TV site and looks like they dropped us with 3 seasons left to go. ARRRRGHHHH!
