Wow. I could not trace those last two. eek That's pretty good!

Now, where did Alice come from? Because I know that was a spinoff.


Alice wasn't a spinoff per se. It was a TV serialization based on the movie "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore."


hmmm I always thought that show was awful. lol I think Flo had her own short-lived spinoff from that show.

Spin-offs were so much better back then Maude, Rhoda, Lavern & Shirley, Good times, The Jeffersons. They were of the same quality as the originals. Last good spin off was Frazier.

Maude was a spin-off of "All in the Family". Maude was Edith's cousin. She came to stay when all four of them had the flu. Archie and she just ripped each other constantly. lol

Good Times was a spin-off of a spin-off. Florida started off as Maude's maid.



Very good!!!!! You know your TV history. Maude was the female Archie Bunker.



Except that politically they were on complete opposite ends of the spectrum smile

I don't know which actress had the better show. But I can tell all of you that Valerie Harper has a better persona. Definitely from the hood, IMO!






She sure was! I love how Rhoda took the subway to her own wedding falloff. That character was so spunky!

Toward the end, "Angel" was better than "Buffy"- Lord knows I loved them both.
