I wasn't aware that Bea and Rue were in those shows mentioned!

I never knew about Amanda's. You have to know celebs., more than likely are in other shows that aren't as popular before they become big stars. I just seen last week a promo for Amanda's and Condo. They both seemed like they would be fun to watch, but I haven't been able to find out any info. on Condo...

Amanda's started 5 years after Maude ended

I saw them both. I liked Condo better than Amanda's. I only saw Amanda's once.

Condo was another in a long line of shows that Mclean Stevenson attempted for a second try at sitcom success after leaving M*A*S*H. I remember watching it every week so it must have not been that bad

I watched Mc in every thing except The Mclean Stevenson Show.

I noticed no one has talked about Apple Pie much--wasn't this show she advertised for relatives so she would have an instant family?

Probably because it only lasted a week on the air-lol Damm that was short.

Neither was in Condo. Condo came on right before Amanda's during its original primetime run.

Now I've never seen that show. It was gone before I could blink an eye.

Betty White starred in few flops including a Fawlty Towers type show with Harvey Korman. Betty also starred in another flop with Bob Newhart.

Apple Pie was yanked after two episodes, that isn't ever going to get a DVD release.

The Garbage Pail Kids cartoon aired none of its eps. and that's on DVD.

Clerks: The Animated Series aired only 2 of its 6 eps. and that's on DVD.

Emily's Reasons Why Not was pulled after the 1st ep. and that's on DVD.

So, you never know...
