Boyd Henderson

Boyd Henderson is a character in *Good Times, Bad Times*. He made his debut in the second season where he starred as a supporting character, becoming part of the main cast from the third season 'till the fifth season. He returned in the eight season.

As the son of Patrick Adams and Daisy Faaris, born due to a one-night-stand between the two, Boyd always lived with no father.

Boyd successfully pinned his father against the entire family, getting the power over him and the Adams Company. Just in time, one of Boyd's pawns (that being Samir Jones) sabotaged his plan to get rid off Patrick and Troy, his half-brother.

Boyd had almost no to none friends, only getting along with Saiph Brown and used to be friends with Jimmy Bandit before acting strange. He had a very serious rivalry with the entire Adams family, mostly Patrick, Troy and Chanel Adams and later Samir Jones.
