Oh, no. :-( I wondered what had happened to the guy, always enjoyed his work, especially as he outwitted Archie on "All In the Family." Rest in peace, Mr. Evans. Prayers for his family.

I don't know if he wrote the theme song but I remember seeing a "VH 1 Behind the Scenes" show (or E or some channel like that) talking about Married with Children, and it interviewed
Monte; his co-creator on MWC is Michael Moye I believe.

">>Eric Monte

The co-creator and 20-writer of Married with Children had nothing to do with All in the Family or The Jeffersons. This is an obituary thread for Mr. Evans.

Sorry, apparently they were co-writers. 4:30 A.M no coffee, no brain.

I loved both of those shows.
I think Jay Jay should have had his own show with the maid from the Jeffersons. Those two -- wow, sparks would fly.

The Jeffersons has been hit hard. Almost all the actors have gone to Heaven on that show. I really liked the character of Lionel on Jeffersons.
RIP Michael Evans. Prayers is his mother.

Dad on "Everyone Loves Raymond, Lionel, and who else? Or are we almost at 3?
To: lunarbicep
I believe he based the character of "michael evans" on "Good Times" with some of his personality in mind....I know...no duh

Throat cancer is suggestive of tobacco + alcohol use, I believe.

We've already had 3. The creator of Yogi Bear, Raymond's "Dad", a singer from the 1940's/50's (sorry, I forgot her name).
