11. Red Foxx Wore Makeup

When Sanford and Son began, Red Foxx was only 49, though his on-screen character was pushing 65. As a result, Foxx wore makeup on the show in order to play older. Of course, as the show progressed, the makeup would miff Foxx, because viewers assumed he was as old as his TV character.
