Get ready to cringe (again) as we dig up five more disastrous TV spinoffs that should’ve stayed on the cutting room floor. From Mrs. Columbo's baffling backstory to Sanford and Son, sans "Son", these shows prove that lightning rarely strikes twice—especially when you're chasing ratings instead of logic.
Chapters:

01:17.10 - Mrs. Columbo – Because Columbo (https://web.archive.org/web/20061031125247/http://www.jumptheshark.com/c/columbo.htm)’s unseen wife needed... a baby stroller and a newspaper job?
04:40.90 - Sanford (https://web.archive.org/web/20061031125314/http://www.jumptheshark.com/s/sanford.htm) – Lamont who?
07:51.51 - Enos (https://web.archive.org/web/20061031125154/http://www.jumptheshark.com/e/enos.htm) – A fish out of water in LAPD blue.
10:33.37 - Beverly Hills Buntz – Gritty cop meets awkward sitcom.
