Worst. Spin-offs. Ever. (1 Viewer)

The Cleveland Show premiered in 09, only a few years after its revival and Family Guy merchandise was popping up everywhere.
That show had “cash grab” written over it.

I didn't love The Cleveland Show, but I wouldnt put it in "worst spinoff" category. I agree it was a cash grab, but there have been others mentioned here that are far, far worse.

So not a fan of Mork and Mindy or Laverne and Shirley?

That's a tough one. I'd say gray area on that. We still get quite a bit of JD, Elliot, Turk, and Cox. I only dislike that season because they ended season 8 in such a good way, there was no reason to bring those characters back. Unpopular opinion though, I still get some laughs out of season 9. I also have a pretty big crush on Eliza Coupe.

Yeah, it's definitely a weird one. The show's creator Bill Lawrence said he considered season 8 to be the final season and had unsuccessfully asked ABC to label season 9 as Scrubs Med.

I wasn’t a huge fan of that 70s show. But That 80s Show was really bad.

I believe they eventually rebranded it for season 9 reruns and streaming in the opening credits.

Did yall know that Joanie Loves Chachi was the #1 rated show in S Korea the night it premiered .. Garry Marshall tells the story that no one involved in the show could figure it out, since it had done poorly in America and almost everywhere else, but the pilot episode was a huge hit in S Korea.. then, someone brought it to their attention, that ‘Chachi’ in Korean means………. Penis .


That’s a true story .*

I actually liked Joanie Loves Chachi, but i was like 8.. plus it didnt hurt that the show took place in the 1960s and they had an episode dedicated to Beatlemania .



Does anyone remember ’Enos’ ? It was a spinoff of Dukes of Hazzard, where deputy Enos Strait (sp?) moves to ‘the big city’[tm] and hi-jinks ensue.. i really liked it as well, but again i was like 6 or 7 .. it was in the very early 1980s, like 80 or 81 .

Enis, I think. Yep. I remember watching it as a kid. I think Daisy Duke makes a guest appearance in one of the episodes.

Right ? And to think, somewhere in between Zapped! and Charles and Charge, he seemed like the epitome of cool.. that may say more about how easily impressionable i was than how cool he actually was .
