James "J.J." Evans, Jr., (born August 24, 1956) is a fictional character on the 1970s sitcom, Good Times. He was created by Norman Lear and portrayed by Jimmie Walker. The character was known as simply "J.J.", and is commonly seen as the show's breakout character. His favorite expression was "Dyno-MITE!"

James Evans, Jr., was born in 1956 in Chicago, Illinois, to Florida and James Evans, Sr. (in real-life, Walker was actually born eight years earlier in 1947). Although most often called J.J., he was called simply "Junior" by his father and James Junior in the first episode by his mother. Easily identifiable because of his thin structure and jive talking personality, J.J. was a notorious ladies man, or at least he liked to give the impression that he was one. His girlfriends to whom he gave nicknames included Henrietta, Boom-Boom Belinda, Samantha the Panther, Diana (who was a heroin addict), and other girls who made brief appearances.

He grew up in an impoverished section of Chicago, in a cold water flat. His mother, Florida, worked as a maid while J.J.'s father James worked at various jobs. His sister Thelma was born June 18, 1957, a year after J.J. They still lived in the same apartment.

After J.J.'s younger brother Michael was born, his family finally moved out of a cold water flat and into a housing project development, thanks in part to James's friendship with Alderman Fred C. Davis. It was in a poor African-American section where unemployment was at its highest. James, Sr., worked at several jobs to keep his family in a home he could afford.

J. J. Evans has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
