[post_page_title]A spin-off?[/post_page_title]
Unsurprisingly there were some characters who fans loved more than others. Often there were calls from fans to develop spin-off shows about them, and one character who came close to getting their own show was Mr. Tudball, played by Tim Conway. The actor was offered the opportunity to create his very own spin-off show, but he refused the offer in the end as the producers didn’t want Burnett to feature in her role as Mrs. Wiggins.

People loved The Family sketch that Burnett and her co-stars created. The offbeat family were loved by so many that they got their very own show during the ‘80s. The show was a sitcom based off the small sketch but the idea was so great that people just wanted to see more of the characters they had invested so much time in during The Carol Burnett Show. The family created through the variety show became so popular it became a no-brainer for producers to create a show starring the characters.
