Isabel Sanford's Honeymoon Hotel

1987 American TV series or program From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Isabel Sanford's Honeymoon Hotel is an American sitcom that was broadcast in first-run syndication in January 1987. The stripped series, airing five days a week, was created to showcase Isabel Sanford's comedic skills, but it failed to attract an audience and was quickly cancelled.[1][2] The title of the series may have likely been inspired by an episode from the tenth season of The Jeffersons called "Honeymoon Hotel".
