I heard it used twice on Sanford & Son on two different episodes..............
Do you know what word he was talking about? Not the N word. I can’t believe that used that other word in the 70s.

I heard it too and we laughed like hell. It was the episode where Fred was “cross examining” a white cop in his own defense and it went something like this:
Fred (leaning forward menacing in the cop’s face): Do ever arrest any WHITE people?
Cop (defensively): Sure, I arrest lots of white people.
Fred (as the camera scans the courtroom audience): Then how come there’s nuthin but n****** here?
(All-black audience and laff track explodes in laughter, as did our living room)
