But that series eventually became Together We Stand, which (following Elliot Gould's unfriendly departure) was rechristened Nothing is Easy, and died on the vine.

How about "Walter" which attempted to chronicle the life of Walter "Radar" O'Reilly, post MASH?

From "227", "Jackee". Somethings are best in small doses.

How about Zelda? Spinoff from Dobie Gillis until they realized Sheila James was a dyke and wouldn't be believable chasing men.
