Thanks, Mike.
Show #10 (2nd one…Georgie….) is a spinoff of a spinoff <G>….seriously!
1. Can anyone name the other 2 shows this came from?
2. Can anyone name any other spinoff from a spinoff? I know of one well-known one from the 1970s.
No googling allowed. <G>
Great question, Larry!
I can think of 1 with lots of spin offs!
1. All in the Family
2. Maude
3. The Jeffersons
4. Bunkers Place
I can't believe how many spin offs there are!!! I didn't look at this before my answer above.
Thanks, Mike!
1. Indeed, AITF lead to several spin-offs. However, you didn’t actually name a spin-off from a spin-off. You’ll know the show for sure.
2. Anyone know about how the show “Georgie…” evolved? No googling or binging or yahooing. :)
Aside: This reminds me. Does anyone remember when Yahoo was like the #1 search engine?

I had to look it up. Not to find out the answer but because I never heard of that show, so I couldn't even guess the answer when I never heard of the show.
On Yahoo......wow, I forgot about that and never knew the history!
Thanks, Mike!
1. Regarding the one from the 1970s, it was “Good Times”, which was a spin-off from “Maude” because Florida was Maude’s maid. And as you already noted, Maude spun-off from AITF.
2. “Georgie” came from “Little Sheldon”, which came from “The Big Bang Theory”.
Thanks very much, Larry!
I didn't want to spoil it for you after looking it up. Very interesting.
I never heard of Little Sheldon either but did actually know that the The Big Bang Theory was a popular show
I appreciate it, Mike.
I’ve actually never seen Georgie. But I loved Littke Sheldon as it was my favorite prime time show for several years. I watched with my bro, who also loved it. The cast included someone from “Designing Women” as Sheldon’s grandma by the way.
I’ve seen a good number of Big Bang (funny show with good writing and acting) but liked LS more.
