Does anyone know where What's Happening!! was taped? I heard it was on the same set as Sanford & Son. Is this true?

I can't believe that they actually used the same house-scene for both Sanford & Son and WH!
Take away Sanford's junk and hangings, and you have the Thomas house!
WOW...

Wow, I had no idea about that "apartment possibility", now that you mention it, Irene...
It does kinda look like a duplicate scene, between the two shows.

Not to mention, the apartment that Rerun & Raj obtained initially (end of Season 2, "The Apartment") is far different than the one they lived in together, on a permanent basis during all of Season 3. Notice that?
