Ferguson opened up on ABC exploring a potential Mitch and Cam spinoff during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live.

A month after Ferguson told Watch What Happens Live that ABC "decided against" a spinoff, the actor, fresh from winning a Tony Award, tells E.T. that a spinoff script is out there. "The script's out there and it's very good," he said. "So, you know, who knows? If someone wants to produce it, maybe."
