View Full Version : Disney Creates 'That's So Raven' Spinoff
felicitylen 05-19-2006, 12:11 PM Disney Channel is betting that "That's So Raven," its most successful series, can be the source of another winning show.
"Cory in the House," the channel's first series spinoff, will feature characters Cory and Victor Baxter from "That's So Raven" and will be set in the White House, the channel said Thursday. A November premiere is planned.
"Raven" stars Kyle Massey and Rondell Sheridan will reprise their roles as the son and father, now adjusting to life in Washington after dad Victor is chosen as personal chef to the newly elected president, Richard Martinez.
The role of President Martinez has yet to be cast.
Living in the staff quarters of the White House with his father, teenager Cory has to contend with the antics of the president's 8-year-old daughter and adjust to life at an exclusive Washington school.
Marc Warren and Dennis Rinsler, executive producers for "That's So Raven," are in charge of "Cory in the House."
"That's So Raven," which debuted in 2003 and stars actress-singer Raven-Symone ("The Cosby Show"), has wrapped production but will continue to air new episodes in which Raven pursues her dream of becoming a fashion designer.
The series was the channel's most-watched and had the most episodes produced, 100. It also spawned a merchandising wave of DVDs, video games, clothing, dolls and books.
Raven-Symone, who begins a concert tour next week, just completed filming on the Disney Channel movie "The Cheetah Girls 2," about four friends aspiring to be pop stars. The TV movie will debut in August.

SkyAngel15 05-19-2006, 05:35 PM Personally, I don't think it's going to be the same without Raven on this show. But that's just my opinion.
Superstar 05-19-2006, 06:17 PM Personally, I don't think it's going to be the same without Raven on this show. But that's just my opinion.
ditto. It sounds lame.
felicitylen 05-19-2006, 06:49 PM I don't think Cory and his father can carry a whole show.
PrettyinPink55 05-19-2006, 09:25 PM This sounds dumb.
Superstar 05-20-2006, 05:41 AM I wonder if Tanya is still going to be in London studying law :lol:
moeee 05-22-2006, 11:12 AM i hope so, cause without "Tanya" is always a great thing. :lol:
Just like Zack and Cody, im not gonna watch this.
This tv show wont even past the 65 episode limit.

Yeah, Tanya was kinda useless in TSR. I like the episodes where she wasn't in there better.
But I am getting into the Suite Lilfe! :eek: I never thought I'd say it, but one night I had nothing else to watch, and Suite Life was on, and I actually thought it wasn't so bad. The twins can get annoying though.

:grr:
It could be a success...I'll watch the first episode out of curiousity which I'm sure alot of TSR fans will do. It'll probably get alot of the younger TSR fans too.
SkyAngel15 05-22-2006, 04:46 PM Yeah I might watch it too, just to see how good it is. But it is NEVER going to be as good as TSR was.
moeee 05-22-2006, 07:11 PM You never know but, This show could actually be better than TSR. :lol:
SkyAngel15 05-22-2006, 07:55 PM Oh please! This show is just a TSR-wannabe. Without Raven, this show isn't worth watching in my opinion! sorry if I sound harsh, this is just my opinion.:)
MikeLutton 05-23-2006, 01:19 AM hey what happens to chelsea where does she go i rather see spinoff of her then corey
moeee 05-23-2006, 02:15 AM Oh please! This show is just a TSR-wannabe. Without Raven, this show isn't worth watching in my opinion! sorry if I sound harsh, this is just my opinion.:)

i dont know, but i agree with you. No matter how silly she was, i really think Annelise should have her own show. honest.:)
Superstar 05-23-2006, 03:10 AM hey what happens to chelsea where does she go i rather see spinoff of her then corey
I doubt they'll even mention Chelsea...they'll probably only mention Raven by saying she's in college or something
MikeLutton 05-23-2006, 05:18 AM figures that Hollywood for u doubt this show even going last who knows mabye raven n chelsea pay visit or something but we can only hope long live chelsea

I doubt it. Raven could do
moeee 05-27-2006, 06:41 PM I doubt it. Raven could do
I pray and hope Raven will be there. :lol:
The title of the show is called Cory in the House. Well, it should be called........
That's So Cory. :D
The intro music should be the same, except "Cory" would replace "Raven" in the song. :crazy::lol:

That wouldn't work, because Cory can't see into the future! :lol: :lol:
Maybe it'll be an inspirational uplifting lyric like:
"That's so Cory, It's the future I can be....."

:rofl: that would be hilarious. It will probably end up being something ghetto like the Phil of the Future theme song
GeorgiaboyJeff! 05-28-2006, 06:37 PM This sounds stupid!! I spin-off with Eddie or Chelsea in college would be more interesting!

Hail to 'Cory' at Disney Channel
Disney Channel is set to go into production on its first series spinoff, "Cory in the House," which features two characters from the network's hit comedy "That's So Raven." In the series, Kyle Massey and Rondell Sheridan will reprise the roles they have played for the past four years -- Cory and Victor Baxter, a son and father now making the move to the White House. While Raven goes off to college and mom Tanya moves to the U.K. to finish law school, Victor is handpicked to be the personal chef to the newly elected president. He and Cory move into the staff quarters of the White House and must contend with characters including the president's sly 8-year-old daughter and his no-nonsense personal adviser. (Kimberly Nordyke)

So now Raven is in College now......and they dont create a show about it.
Superstar 05-29-2006, 03:09 AM I'm glad because Raven should stop doing Disney stuff and do some movies

Superstar 05-31-2006, 03:10 AM we'll need a Cory board first :lol:
SkyAngel15 05-31-2006, 06:44 PM That would be funny if you all started a cory thread. I doubt that anyone would want to put up pictures of his big head up here. No offence to Kyle fans
Parakeet03 06-02-2006, 04:55 PM haha! Cory's moving into Raven's boots now, huh? :lol:
moeee 06-02-2006, 11:29 PM haha! Cory's moving into Raven's boots now, huh? :lol:
Cory should wear Raven's boots for an episode! :lol: Interesting.
Superstar 06-03-2006, 03:42 AM Cory should wear Raven's boots for an episode! :lol: Interesting.
He should wear her clothes all the time! :lol:
Parakeet03 06-03-2006, 07:28 PM I think that would be an awesome look for him! :lol: That's So Cory!! lol
Rachel3118 06-12-2006, 02:20 PM The spin off will be boring without Raven and her visions.
SkyAngel15 06-12-2006, 05:36 PM It'll be boring without Raven period!
Brian Damage 06-12-2006, 05:39 PM Wait a minute, I thought Raven's parents were married? How are they going to pull this off?
Parakeet03 06-12-2006, 05:54 PM If people actually watch this show then there's something wrong here. How could this work? It just sounds like a horrible plot. I know these things cuz I'm a writer, not professional yet tho. :p
Superstar 06-13-2006, 03:22 AM Wait a minute, I thought Raven's parents were married? How are they going to pull this off?
Basically, T'keyah Keymah, who played Raven's mother Tanya, left the show towards the end of season 3. In the show, they have said that she's in London pursuing a law degree. I presume that she'll still be in London in this show too :lol:
Scott_Baios_Gurl 06-14-2006, 03:06 PM this spinoff sounds pretty boring to me, but none-the-less i'll give it a chance
SkyAngel15 06-14-2006, 06:18 PM Yeah it could. Who knows, I might be wrong about this show and it might be good. But the chances of that happening in my eyes are .00000001 percent. The only time i'd watch it is if Raven makes a guest appearence, if she ever does. This is just my opinion.:) Wow, I wrote a lot!

Oh, I see. I guess since this is a Disney production, they didn't want to deal with a death or divorce.
moeee 06-15-2006, 12:03 AM Actually, they did in an episode. Raven had a "vision" that her parents were getting a divorce.
Maybe Victor will have a new wife. :lol:

that would rock :lol:
Buffyboy323 07-26-2006, 12:19 AM The premise sounds dumb. I won't be watching, unless Raven is in a few of the episodes........
Superstar 07-31-2006, 04:11 PM The premise sounds dumb. I won't be watching, unless Raven is in a few of the episodes........
I've read that she's supposed to making a few appearances but I don't know if thats true or not :\
JulieSomoski 09-02-2006, 07:10 PM I wonder when it's going to begin airing. Probably in winter of 2007, because is when most Disney shows make their debuts. I wonder when it will air. Probably at 7 taking Phnil of the Future's spot, but it's just a guess. The plot sounds a little eboring, and it will take a lot of getting used to with new characters and old characters gone(hense, Eddie and Chelsea). I sure hope Raven makes guest appearance(probably only 1 or 2 if any because the reason That's So Raven is over is because Raven did not want to go on with the series. She wants to get away from Disney, just like Hilary Duff).
I'll give it a chance, and so will most Raven fans. I'll bet that the pilot for this episode will be the highest rated one for any Disney show, just because it's a spinoff.
