Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Thelma's husband, Keith (Ben Powers), currently employed as a cab driver, is unable to get Christmas Eve off. Thus, the Evans family and several friends converge upon the offices of the cab company to put on a Yuletide show for Keith's benefit. Like the fifth-season episode "That's Entertainment, Evans Style," this opus is essentially an excuse for the Good Times cast to show off their musical talents. Highlight: Florida (Esther Rolle), Willona (Ja'net DuBois), Thelma (BernNadette Stanis), and Penny (Janet Jackson) in a spirited rendition of "Steam Heat."
