The Redd Foxx Show
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Redd Foxx Show was a short-lived sitcom that premiered January 18, 1986 on ABC. It followed the life of Al Hughes (Redd Foxx), a newsstand owner who adopted a "street-wise" teenager named Toni (Pamela Segall). Along with Al was Diana (Rosanna DeSoto), who worked with Al in the newsstand, and Jim-Jam (Nathaniel Taylor, Teddy Wilson), who also owned a newsstand of his own. Everything seemed to be going fine for Al, but as the show went on, Toni "disappeared", and in came his ex-wife Felicia (Beverly Todd) and his son, Byron (Sinbad).
The show ended after four months on air.
