		It ran on the NBC network from 1979 to 1988 and was produced first by TAT Communications, then Embassy Television, followed by Embassy Communications, and finally, Columbia Pictures Television (through ELP Communications).
		The spinoff focused on Charlotte Rae's character, Edna Garrett, as she became housemother to seven young girls at the Eastland Academy in Peekskill, New York.
		The series was given a berth on the 1980-81 American network television schedule, and the show was a constant Top 30 hit for most of the early and mid-1980s.

	AfterEllen.com - Is Network Television Ready for a Willow Spin-off?
		If she were a new character, I believe the answer would definitely be no. Network television shows have almost never launched a new show with a lesbian character, preferring to wait until after the show is established to introduce lesbian characters (e.g.
		Kennedy has gradually emerged as a strong character on Buffy over the second half of the last season, however, and the increasing amount of screen time devoted to her character is an indication that Whedon may be considering Kennedy for inclusion in a Willow spin-off, as well--or even revolving the spin-off around her instead (i.e.
		The upcoming premiere of the all-lesbian series The L Word on Showtime is further proof of this--although it remains to be seen whether Earthlings will be successful, it was unthinkable five years ago that anyone would even try to sell a show about a bunch of lesbians.

	Yo! Joey Scores "Friends" Spinoff - Jul 24, 2003 - E! Online News (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Matt LeBlanc, twice Emmy-nominated for his role as the dim-witted wannabe actor, is going solo, inking a deal with NBC and producer Warner Bros. Television to star in a Friends spinoff, the parties announced in a joint statement Thursday.
		The idea of a Joey-centric spinoff were first floated last fall, with plans going into overdrive once LeBlanc and his Friends pals agreed to disband in May 2004 at the end of the upcoming 10th season.
		With both Friends and Frasier (which is, of course, the hugely successful spinoff of Cheers and what NBC hopes is a blueprint for Joey) on their way out at the end of the season, and CBS' CSI-Survivor Thursday roster seriously challenging in the Nielsens, NBC is desperate to come up with a new comedy franchise.

		But if the restrictions are dropped in 2004, the inducement of cheaper borrowing costs through a larger investment pool could trigger the sale or spinoff of television and radio stations from companies that own those "culture" businesses alongside the cable and phone networks that carry them.
		But a contemplated spinoff could be complicated by the removal of the foreign ownership cap because of the mix of cable and media assets.
		CanWest Global Communications Corp., whose Canadian operations include the Global Television Network and a chain of newspapers including the National Post, is believed to be interested in acquiring radio stations and specialty television channels but might face regulatory hurdles barring it from acquiring certain companies because of its dominance in conventional television.

		Roker and Cover portrayed network television's first regularly-scheduled inter-ethnic couple where one partner was African-American.
