19. The Jefferson’s Spin-Off Was A Flop
Despite being a spin-off of another successful show, The Jeffersons’ own spin-off seem to work out as well.
A spin-off??
The spin-off failed to reach the same level of success as it’s predecessor. Which was a devastating blow.

Checking In – revolved around housekeeper Florence, who was played by Marla Gibbs.
Nothing will compare…
However, the show only lasted four episodes before being shelved by CBS in 1981.

Thankfully, the show’s immediate failure was soon followed by Florence’s return to the Jefferson family.
Back in the limelight…
Yes another piece of adhoc material the producers managed to squeeze into the show. These made for great entertainment and a personal touch.
