View Full Version : My list of Weird Spinoffs TVFactFan 08-21-2003, 11:26 PM Mork and Mindy Joanie Loves Chachi Sanford Arms Brian 08-22-2003, 12:39 AM The Sanford Arms probably shouldn't have happened because Fred and Lamont were not in it. Joanie Loves Chachi would have been better off as a continuation series (like Mayberry RFD and Archie Bunker's Place) after Happy Days ended its run. Mr. Television 08-22-2003, 01:02 AM The Sanford Arms was a bad Idea as even the series Sanford was a better show. Mork And Mindy was a great show during the first season, but the rest of the seasons were not. I actually liked Joanie Loves Chachi but they were better on Happy Days.

I am Roboto 08-24-2003, 08:32 PM Don't forget 704 Hauser (1994)- I've never personally seen it, but a spin-off coming 11 years after the previous show ended; without any of the previous cast members :eek: Joey did guest star in the first episode, but it wasn't enough.

You just explained why that show was NOT a spin-off. Joey coming on it was not enough to make it a spin-off. Some people think it can be delared as one because the house was "spun-off." I don't think so. I am Roboto 08-24-2003, 09:12 PM Sorry if it isn't, but I always thought it was, as it was listed in the "Spin-offs & Crossovers Page". I thought Joey being brought in in the first episode was the attempt to associate it with the previous shows, thus making it a spin-off, however weak it may be. I guess I was wrong...

Don't be sorry! :) Some people still think it is a spin-off. There are different rules people go by when they think of a show being a spin-off. LucyFan 08-25-2003, 07:53 PM My picks: ~ Maude ~ Grady Those two were not only weird, but horrible as well! Mork and Mindy, I thought was a great show with funny characters especially Mork. I will give anything to see that show again on the air. Oh Hallmark . . . wait, better yet . . .oh TV Land. NicholasFlynn 10-25-2003, 10:20 AM "Grady" was a great character on "Sanford & Son" but his show wasn't very funny. But "Maude"? It was great! Bea Arthur was funny as hell. "Maude" wasn't horrible! That's where "Good Times" came from. TVFactFan 10-25-2003, 10:22 AM Originally posted by NicholasFlynn "Grady" was a great character on "Sanford & Son" but his show wasn't very funny. But "Maude"?

The idea of the show Good Times didn't come from Mwude, only the character Florida Evans Brian Damage 10-25-2003, 11:52 AM At least you now realize it was the same character. jarri 10-26-2003, 01:38 AM I think FLO was a bad idea. The storyline was bad but the show itself needed some serious help.:( :( :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Gil 10-26-2003, 04:39 AM That show was supposed to be a hit, since Flo was the "star" of "Alice". Didn't happen.

Norman Lear created it, he also created AITF and it's spin-offs. But rather than a spin-off, I think the show was a miserable attempt by Lear to return to his former glory. |
