Phil Wheeler was NOT on Sanford and Son of course
BUT he was THE STAR of THE SANFORD ARMS, they REPLACED Redd Foxx with a new lead character--- ESTHER and BUBBA remained ONLY co-stars I have several episodes and when u watch them, GUESS WHO GETS FIRST BILLING as STARRING.... and it aint Lawanda Page.... Here is info from TV.COM The Sanford Arms was an attempt to continue the long-running success of "Sanford & Son" without Redd Foxx or Demond Wilson. The actors had left earlier for different reasons. Fred's old army buddy, Phil Wheeler, comes to run the Sanford Arms hotel after Fred and Lamont moved to Arizona (it was stated in the show that they left due to Fred's health). Bubba is still around, only now he is the hotel's bellboy. Esther also frequents the hotel, becoming the star of the show in Fred's absence. This was not enough to save the series, and after only four episodes, it was pulled from the air. And if u watch the episodes you will notice that Esther has FAR LESS screen time than Phil Wheeler and his children, in fact in some episodes she barely makes a cameo! sorry, but Esther was NOT the star and was never more than a supporting character! |

Yall sound crazy now, someone had to be spinned off to call Sanford Arms a Spinoff. And it was Esther who was in the NBC Photo with Phil Wheeler to promote the show
