- TriviaMama's Family (1983) is actually a spin-off of the sketch on The Carol Burnett Show (1967) called "The Family" which had a different set for the house, and Vint was not Mama's son. Instead, Mama had a son named Phillip who was an actor. And Fran did not live with Mama. And there was no such thing as Naomi.

Thelma 'Mama' Crowley Harper: I need a beer. The only way I am going to keep from going crazy around here is to stay half lit.
Featured review
A busy and very-funny first-episode of a great tv-series !
This was a hectic and busy begining/first episode of a tv show based on a series of skits from "the Carol Burnett show". This premiere episode throws quite a bit of material out there,all at once,for the viewer to try to keep-track of,digest and understand.
We are introduced to a delightfully wacky family comprised of nutty,quirky characters that are involved in all sorts of inter-twining problems and misadventures.
The poor widowed Mama character is the harried homeowner and de-facto head-of-household. She is saddled with problem family-members who cannot make it on their-own for very-long without returning to live with Mama 'until they get back on their feet'. It is implied that Mama's household pretty-much has a 'revolving-door' on it when it comes to relatives and family-members moving in and out continuously over the years.
This episode sets-the stage and introduces all of the main characters and family-dynamics for all of the future episodes to come.
I think this episode was very-funny and worthwhile. I really liked it and as long as you aren't an old sourpuss you probably will like it too. Check it out and let us know what YOU think about it!🌞
