From that initial idea of a spin-off, the producers created Mama’s Family, but there was a time when it almost didn’t make it to our screens. The producers knew it was a hit during The Carol Burnett Show, but Vicki Lawrence declined to be a part of it as she didn’t want to appear on screen as an old woman all the time. Her other issue was that she didn’t want to abandon her mentors, Burnett and Korman, but was eventually convinced by Burnett to take the part.

The Family sketch that featured on The Carol Burnett Show had to go through some lengthy discussions before it was agreed upon. Burnett wanted the family to be from the south, but the producers insisted they be from the Midwest. That wouldn’t do, as Burnett had always imagined that the family would be from the south, so she dug her heels in and got the accents that she wanted for her characters. Once she read the script through in a southern accent, the producers were sold on the idea.
