In Righteous Gemstones Episode 2.9, the Lissons show their true colors by being shockingly abusive to Lyle's aging Dad, Roddy Lisson, played by the legendary John Amos.
Amos was everywhere on television in the 1970s and 1980s: the adult Kunta Kinte in Roots (1977), Gordy the Weatherman on The Mary Tyler Moore Show (1970-77), longsuffering dad James Evans on Good Times (1974-79), sword-and-sorcery fighter Seth in Beastmaster (1982), plus guest shots on Sanford and Son, Maude, Police Story, Love Boat, The A-Team...you name it, he was in it.
The full article, with a nude photo which may or may not be of John Amos, is on my Righteous Gemstones blog
I was watching "Ice Station Zebra" (1968) a very manly movie set aboard a submarine - Jim Brown plays a marine- Brown was very handsome and had very large hands
