a Crossover Episode and not a Spinoff? I have done that with Hello Larry about 4 years ago. I thought it was a spinoff from Diffrent Strokes only to found out that the two shows just crossed over because they aired back to back. Have you confused a crossover with a spinoff?

Well I guess since Hello Larry was never in syndication in the city of Philadelphia, It was easy for me to think HL as a spinoff-lol

HELLO LARRY was a RETRO Spinoff

ha ha

it started out as a seperate show, BUT to boost the ratings they decided that Larry and MR Drummond were old buddies and tried to BACK DATE it like a spinoff

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Actually, for a brief time I thought that Simon & Simon was a spinoff of Magnum, PI.

It was very brief, I assure you.

Good question Solomon.

I use to think the Betty White Show was a spinoff of the Mary Tyler Moore Show.
