Well it wasn't suppose to work out like that, I obviously configured some of the shows and it's spin-off's wrong.

Sorry...

I have a feeling this is going to start the whole "Maude"/"Good Times" debate all over again.

My favorite spin-off isn't on the list: "Mama's Family", which was a spin-off of "The Carol Burnett Show".

I voted for "Family Matters" in the poll.

Well, I botched the post 38...hopefully I can delete it and try again.

If Mama's Family works as a spinoff, then it would follow that The Simpsons is a Tracey Ullman spinoff. I think a number of shows, including The Honeymooners, started as sketches within other shows.


You can also include these:


Happy Days from Love American Style
The Andy Griffith Show from Make Room For Daddy
Gomer Pyle USMC from The Andy Griffith Show
Mayberry RFD from The Andy Griffith Show
The Ropers from Three's Company
The Simpsons from The Tracey Ullman Show
Phyllis from The Mary Tyler Moore Show


I might have to split my vote between the first two shows on my list. It's very hard to choose from both of them.

If you go by how long the spinoff lasted and how many Emmy's it won than Frasier wins by a landslide!

And there's also:

-"The Cleveland Show" from "Family Guy"
-"The Parkers" from "Moesha"
-"The Soul Man" from "Hot in Cleveland"
-"Sam and Cat" from "iCarly / Victorious"
-"Joanie Loves Chachi" from "Happy Days
-"Green Acres" from "Petticoat Junction"

The Golden Girls is NOT a spin-off, Empty Nest is a spin-off of The Golden Girls.

Yes, I know...I screwed a lot of it up. Once I finished it, I was never able to go back and edit it.

I picked The Jeffersons -- Not as good as all in the family but still a good show :)

I would pick Green Acres if it were offered - the rare case of the spin-off being even better than the original.
