Do you think the tribute was fitting for a legend

If you’re watching Suits LA, you may have seen the touching tribute to the legendary John Amos in Episode 7. After his passing last August, the show dedicated an entire storyline to honoring his legacy and it was definitely a tear-jerker. 😢

In the episode titled “Good Times,” the show’s characters work together to get Amos a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. It was bittersweet, especially since his character had appeared in the premiere playing himself. Watching Ted Black (played by Stephen Amell) fight for Amos’ recognition really hit home, especially his iconic line, “John Amos was the Sidney Poitier of television.” 🙌

The episode wrapped with a beautiful nod to Amos’ career, as the team watched a classic Good Times episode in his honor. 🎥 It’s clear the show did its best to ensure Amos’ impact on TV was celebrated the right way.

Do you think the tribute was fitting for such a legend? Would love to hear your thoughts on the storyline and how they handled his legacy.

I haven’t seen the tribute. I do agree he was a legend. He could make me laugh with his serious expressions. 🥰

Fitting In Isn’t the Same as Belonging 🔑ℹ️👇
Just because you fit in doesn’t mean you’re in the right place. Plates stacked in a sewer drain look like they belong—but they’re just clogging the flow. Sometimes, blending in is the slow choke of your own progress. True belonging is a space where you thrive, not where you survive. Don’t settle
