Comment
A great talent that will be missed. I have to watch "Screwed" now.
What a wonderful actor and comedic talent. Every time I watch a Jeffersons episode, you couldn't help but laugh at that walk or strut of "George Jefferson". I'm sure the remaining cast of "The Jeffersons & Amen our deeply saddened. RIP Mr. Hemsley...
