Maude, Jeffersons,Archie's Place,Gloria.
"Maude," "The Jeffersons," "Archie's Place," and here's where my memory gets vague, but I'll take a stab at it: The Redd Foxx sitcom, probably called "The Redd Foxx Show," because the Redd Foxx character's son was the Meathead's friend????
Irrelevant, now, but I finally thought of the name of the Redd Foxx show -- "Sanford and Son." Marty beat me to the punch, though, even if I'm right about the son being Meathead's friend! Nice job, Marty -- I never would have remembered "Gloria."
P.S. Marty and I must have posted answers almost simultaneously, because her answer wasn't up yet when I posted mine. Sometimes this game has suspense, too!
OK, smarties, what are the other 3?
Hey!! Wait a second! I count two answers remaining, yes? - because Marty and I got five between us, yes? I'll be thinking...
Sorry, Smarty Susan, Sanford & Son does not count as a spin-off.
Rich said spin offs of spin offs and I suspect the others are in that category.Now if I could only think of one.
The best I can do is think that The Jeffersons' maid (Florence) may have had a show, which I hope was called "Florence." If there was no such show or if it wasn't called "Florence," I'm finished. I SIMPLY CANNOT POSSIBLY think of any more "All in the Family" spinoffs, or spinoffs of spinoffs. Ha! Good luck!
Susan,you're right!!She did have a show.Her name is Marla Gibbs,but I don't know the name of the show.
Everyone remembers Maude, Good Times, The Jeffersons and maybe Archie Bunker's Place. Few remember Checking In in which the Jefferson's maid Florence accepted a job at a hotel. The show Gloria was Archie's daughter Gloria, having divorced Michael, ended up working for a veternarian. And last and probably least, 704 Hauser a show built on the concept of an African American family living in the same house as the Bunkers.
