Shirley Hemphill's Short-Lived Series, "One in a Million" from 1980 coming to TV ONE! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Effective, Monday, March 15, there will be some schedule changes on TV One:

What's new: One in a Million (1980 13 episode ABC series starring Shirley Hemphill)

7:00AM One in a Million (replaces George)
11:00AM One in a Million (replaces George)
6:00PM One in a Million (replaces George)

Usually the short lived show hour, lasts for a month, so record all the episodes (only 13 of them) you can if you have the channel. Because by mid-April, another short lived series will probably replace One in a Million.

The show sounds familiar. Do you know what it's about?

It stars Shirley Hemphill from What's Happening!! It lasted only 13 episodes on ABC in 1980. I have never seen it, wish I had this channel! I bet What's Happening!! or What's Happening Now!! could be on there soon. Maybe Sanford? Grady? Sanford Arms?

TV One could be REALLY good, if they do this.

Shirley played a cabdriver who inherited Grayson Enterprises,a multi-million dollar company which she inherited from one of her customers.

One In A Million also aired on BET during the late 80's and early 90's off and on.

I knew that show was familiar. I saw it when it first aired back in the day.
