Amen was better than 227.
That is all that is needed to be said.

Amen didn't have the sexy that was Jackee. The end.
I'm straight...applaud me for my bravery!
Eh, I felt like I was at church when I watched Amen even when I didn't want to be. Plus 227 was more memorable with Saaaandra, and Pearl hanging out the window.
I missed you so much I followed you today.
Another bonus that 227 didn't have that Amen did...that damn Thelma.

Thelma and her Roooo-ben. Even "Tootie" was on 227 for a minute. All I remember was that Sandra took her under her wing and she wore too much makeup. Have to find that episode.

IMHO Amen was better because it had Clifton Davis
and i loved the charactor of Rolly but can't remember hwo played him...

I like them both! "Amen" was hilarious and "227" was funny as well. It had a nice wholesome feel to it. I wish more shows were like "Amen" and "227."

I wasn't aware that they were dueling.
shareIt's funny, because I think of both shows as being related. They even play them back to back week nights on Encore Black. Rolly was the man on Amen and Jackee did a few guest spots. 227 had some great humor that flew over my head as a kid that I laugh at now. Better is a subjective term. I still enjoy both shows.
shareI remember in the late 80s my parents watching Amen I was about 6 or in the late 80s I didn't understand the humor. I remember back then my dad liked Rolly and my mom. When I watch AMEN on TV as a re-run Rolly is a riot. I think both 227 and Amen are grea shows and its hard to pick which one I like.
shareToughie. I grew up with both shows. They were both great in their own way.
Nice 2 laugh, but don't be the joke.👎✋
I liked both. Amen's Thelma was hilarious.
