When a show is considered a spinoff and has 200 inconsistencies, it doesn't make Sitcom Analyzer's Spinoff List.

If Good Times is a spinoff that has many inconsistencies and is branded a strange creation, then you could say the same thing about The Simpsons. In case you don't know, the series was a spinoff of The Tracy Ullman Show. There are a helluvalot of inconsistencies on that series.

"The Simpsons" isn't a cartoon.It's an "Animated Situation Comedy".I tell that to my dad all the time.

What about Saved by the bell-it was based in Carlifonia yet in Good Morning Miss Bliss was based in Indianapolis,also Zack's parents were divorced in GMMB but in SBTB they were together and Zack's father even had a different name

Actually if you watch JOANIE LOVES CHACHI the whole show is inconsistent with the time frame it is set in. It DOES follow the Happy Days reality with no errors--- but the show, seems like it is set in the 1980s. I mean, it is supposed to be later 50s/early 60s --- BUT most of the friends they have are right out of an 80s sitcom, and the music that Joanie and Chachi play live, especially the awful theme song, could NEVER have been made in that time.... it is straight out of 1980s junk pop.

:eek:

Ms. Bliss and Saved by the Bell was the same show-lol Miss Bliss just was renamed to SBTB

once on "The Jeffersons" in a flashback episode, George opened up his first cleaning store in Harlem, in 1968 (he was showing it to Louise and Lionel when they found out that Martin Luther King had been shot).
But, once on "All in the Family" Lionel told Archie that George was opening up his first cleaning store somewhere in Queens-and that would have been in 1972 or 73 or something (whenever the episode was made).

Also, on the short-lived "Sanford" series from 1981, Fred was still living in the same house from "Sanford & Son" (I forget what they said happened to Lamont).

"The Odd Couple" has TONS of inconsitinsies!!!

"The Dick Van Dyke show" has a lot, in their flashback episodes (too many to list for both series)

Sanford Arms-Aunt Esther mentions that Fred and Lamont moved to Arizona because of Fred's Heart and arthiritis. Fred never had health problems on Sanford and Sonalso, some of the inconsistencies in "The Odd Couple" were:

in a one episode, Oscar says his mother has been after him to get a girlfriend since his divorce. Another time, he says how she's always trying to fix him up with someone since his divorce. But, another time he says he never told her that he got divorced. In fact, the entire plot of the episode revolves around that.

In a flashback episode, Oscar and Felix tell how they met while they were serving on a jury together. But, in the series opening, it says they were "childhood friends". (but that was later changed to "friends"). Another time, they show their fathers meeting in the 1920s. In one scene, Felixes father mentions that Felix is 8, or something. If that's true, Felix would have been in his 50s in the series, which he definetaly was not.

Another time, Oscar and Blanche are looking at some of their wedding photos, and Oscar says that he never returned the tuxedo he wore that day. But, later, in a flashback episode, it shows them get married while Oscar and Felix were in the Army, and he wore his uniform.

And for "The Dick Van Dyke show" in one episode, Laura says that she was only 15 when she married Rob. But, in all the flashback episodes where they're not married, there's NO FREAKIN' WAY that she's that age!!!

In "Where Did I Come From?", a flashback episode about Richies birth, they're living in a different house when Laura leaves for the hospital, but in "That's My Boy?" when Rob brings her home, it's to the New Rochelle house, and from the looks of it, they've been living there for a while.

In "Hustling the Hustler" they show a pool table in the Petries basment. However, it was never shown or mentioned previousley, or again.

In another flashback episode, they show when the Petries first saw the New Rochelle house, and their was a large boulder in the basment. Again, this was never seen or even mentioned again.

In another episode, they show Laura pregnent when they're living in the New Rochelle house. But, in the previously mentioned "Where Did I Come From?" they're living in another house when she's pregnent.

Another time, Rob runs for city council and wins. But this was never mentioned again.

"The Odd Couple" has TONS of inconsitinsies!!!

"The Dick Van Dyke show" has a lot, in their flashback episodes (too many to list for both series)


Why are you mentioning The Odd Couple? that's not a spinoff

well EXCUSE ME!!!! :eatarrow:

well EXCUSE ME!!!! :eatarrow:


You just confused me because the Odd Couple wasn;t a spinoff

Melrose Place is a spinoff and there were inconsistencies. One episode from season one has the cast looking at home videos of Jane Mancini when she was first born being carried in her mother's arms but in season five she discovers that she is adopted.

Season Two: Amanda's long lost mother returns after leaving home when Amanda was twelve. Season Seven has Amanda confessing that she killed someone and that her mother was good friends with the family of the murder victim and Amanda's mother told her daughter not to say anything.

Season Three: Jane and Michael was celebrating their second anniversary in season one but in this third season Jane tells her sister, Sydney that she was married to Michael for five years.

That is all I can think of.

Here's a good one. In one episode of CHEERS, Frasier Crane tells all at the bar that his father is no longer among the living...however, as we find out in his OWN series, his dad is hobbled, but alive and well. In the spinoff it's his MOTHER who is deceased.

yes, but in the episode of "Frasier" where Sam comes to visit him, Frasier introduces his father & Sam says "I thought you said your father was dead!" Frasier says that he said that because he was mad at him at the time.

on another "Cheers" episode, Frasier tells Sam that his (Frasiers) father is a research scientist, and he wanted Frasier to become a physiciatrist.

On "Frasier" as we all know, Martin's a retired cop (although, he wasn't retired yet when "Cheers" was on) and NO WAY would he ever say that about physiciatry!!! (but, since Frasier said that in the same episode where he said Martin's dead, it could be explained by saying he also said that because he was mad at Martin at the time)

On "Sanford," I believe that it was mentioned that Lamont moved to Alaska because of a job.

Their was an episode during season one where Jane mentioned she was an only child.

On "Sanford," I believe that it was mentioned that Lamont moved to Alaska because of a job.


Sanford wasn't a spinoff, it was a REMAKE of the Original Show.

on another "Cheers" episode, Frasier tells Sam that his (Frasiers) father is a research scientist, and he wanted Frasier to become a physiciatrist.

On "Frasier" as we all know, Martin's a retired cop (although, he wasn't retired yet when "Cheers" was on) and NO WAY would he ever say that about physiciatry!!! (but, since Frasier said that in the same episode where he said Martin's dead, it could be explained by saying he also said that because he was mad at Martin at the time)

If I remember correctly, it was brought up on the episode when Sam visits Frasier. Right after Frasier explains why he told him Martin was dead, someone metions that Martin is a cop and Sam says angrily to Frasier "you told me he was a research scientist". Martin then questions Frasier on this and Frasier responds by saying "well you were dead already anyway."

Sanford wasn't a spinoff, it was a REMAKE of the Original Show.

A remake is doing the same show over.

It wasn't a remake, it was a continuation.

On Sanford everything that happened on Sanford and Son is part of the background and the actual past of the characters and situation.

If it was a remake then everything on Sanford and Son had never happened.

Another sitcom spinoff inconsistency:

In an episode of The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Mary and Rhoda attend the wedding of Rhoda's sister Debbie. In Rhoda, Rhoda has one sister Brenda who is single.

that wasn't an inconsistecy. I remember reading somewhere, years ago, when "Rhoda" was on that the writers decided to do away with the married sister.
