After 3 Years of Research, I finally have information on the number of Grady Eps - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TVFactFan · 01-19-2007, 07:10 PM

The spinoff-"GRADY" aired from Dec of 75 and Mar of 76 and the Airdates and eps Titles are Below

12/4/75-"Fred Visits"

12/11/75-"Pre-Empted

12/18/75-"Surprise Party"

12/25/75-"The Poker Game"

1/1/76-Pre-Empted

1/8/76-"Night School"

1/15/76-Grady Learns to Drive

1/22/76-"Second Honeymoon"

1/29/76-????-TV Guide doesn't list ep Description

2/5/76-"Pre-Empted"

2/12/76-????-TV Guide doesn't list ep Description

2/19/76-Pre-empted

2/26/76-Pre-empted

3/5/76-Grady Goes to Las Vegas

So it appears that only 7 eps were AIRED due to terrible ratings in the Thursday Night slot. So Out of the 5 I have 2 and probably will only get to see the other 5 if TV Land airs them.

Other Information

Fred guest starred in-"Fred Vists"

Rollo and Bubba Guest Starred on the ep-"Poker Game"

Woody, Bubba, and Esther guest starred on the ep-"Surprise Party"

Lamont and Donna were the only Sanford and Son characters not to make a Guest Appearance on Grady

I know, I would love to see the Poker Game ep with Rollo and Bubba coming over. Also the Surprise Party ep with Woody, Esther, and Bubba

So now it looks like there were more Grady eps than Sanford Arms. I wonder why BET showed Sanford Arms instead of Grady.

There are 8 eps of Sanford Arms, only 4 were aired on NBC. A trader emailed me his list the other day and on his list I saw this

Sanford Arms-12 eps

LOL_LOL

Hmm, did you tell him about it? Maybe he has the 8 episodes and 4 are repeats or something.

Matt no Trader has more than 4 eps of Sanford Arms-lol Yes I did tell him and haven't heard back from him yet. I would like to see the Sanford Arms ep with WOODY

For a long time I thought traders only had 8 episodes of No time for Sergeants but during the summer I found a 9th one so it's possible. I haven't seen anyone with more than 4 episodes either, but who knows.

I think the Sanford Arms would have made a lot more sense if it was just about Esther and Woody. It would have them running there store and the hotel.

Right because it would have still had that Sanford and Son connection, but instead it featured a NEW FAMILY in the Sanford Home with Esther as a Side Character. Kind of Like Weezy and George Moving to Hawaii and a New Black couple moving in with Bentley still coming over to borrow Things-LOL

Maybe because Grady failed they wanted to try a new cast for the next spinoff. It Grady had been a hit maybe they wouldn't have tried a new family.

They did the NEW FAMILY with Grady Too only difference is Grady was the Main character-lol On Sanford Arms no Sanford and Son Charcter had a major role which made the show kind of ODD.

I have every TV guide from the run of Grady and what I posted is what was in each TV guide. So that tv.com episode guide is bullsh*T-lol

Did you go over there and look at the listings? Maybe I should have posted my above statement into the form of a question.

The ep guide on tv.com is inaccurate. There was no episode description for 2 airdates so I would love to know how they came up with 10 eps-lol On top of that, the show has never been in syndication so no one would not know what eps aired on

1/29/76
2/12/76
