Sanford and Son: This is the big one, Elizabeth!

 When I was a kid I got in trouble for calling my mother a sucker.  I heard Esther say it.  

Anyways, Sanford and Son is a show I recently rewatched a sampling of.  It's not crossover heavy, but has a ton of spin-offs.  It does have one unusual crossover that I almost thought I made up in a dream.

Well, let's go, ya big dummy.

This show is actually based on a british sitcom called Steptoe and Son, believe it or not.  

1972 - 1978--Sanford and Son--Fred Sanford runs a junkyard with his son Lamont.  They love each other very much but also drive each other crazy.  Hilarity ensues.  

1975 - 1976--Grady--Fred's best friend Grady moves out of Watts and in with his daughter in a more upscale and racially diverse neighborhood.  

September 1976--Sandford and Son--"The Hawaiian Connection"--In this two parter, Fred and Lamont are lured to Hawaii as Fred is duped into being a mule for jewel thieves.  This episode crosses over with Hawaii Five-O.  

1977--The Sanford Arms--Fred and Lamont move to Arizona.  Their property, including a nearby boarding house, is bought and the property turned into a hotel.  

1980-1981--Sanford--Fred moves back to the junkyard while Lamont is working on the Alaskan pipeline.  Fred is now co-owner.
