Did you know that................
there almost a spinoff called-"HORSHACK". But the idea never got off the ground. Who the hell would have looked at that show?

 I don't think i'd watch that. I never cared much for Horshack. I'd rather watch a spinoff with Washington, Barbarino or Mr. Woodman. |

Giving Horshack a spinoff would have been like giving Ralph the Doorman a spinoff from the Jeffersons Bookman from Good Times Rob from What's Happening LOL |

I guess that's why they were making him grown all of a sudden. Getting married and all. Tell me, during his "grown" years, was he still doing that laugh? Can't remember.

The producers had to know you can't all of a sudden change a character who was a NERD to a Mature Man overnight because the viewers will not take that character seriously. |

That would have been like doing a SAVED BY THE BELL spinoff starring Screech(!). Can you imagine how grating that voice would be as the
lead character in a show??
