Which character would you like to have seen have a spin-off... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Ireneparalegal · 11-22-2005, 03:37 PM

and what would the scenario of the spin-off be?

I would like to have seen Willona have her own show WITHOUT PENNY. She would be seen dating and have Flo occasionally come over or have them interact. Something like that.

That would have been interesting. I can't think of any other side character that would have been very good in a spinoff though.

NONE. None of the supporting characters were strong enough to have their own show. Not Michael, defintely not thelma, or Willona and don;t even get me started on Bookman.

I thought Bookman was your guy. Not that I'd want it but I could see Bookman in a spin-off, focusing on him as the super of a building with some of the tenants as side characters. Or maybe he gets a job as the head of a hotel and we see him interacting with different people.

He was my guy but not for a spinoff

That'd be cool.

Hey, what abt, what's his name, the pimp guy? Imagine, we see him with his "ladies" around and him hanging around his crib and doing all kinds of crazy things.

Now you know they couldn't have a spinoff since they were occasional characters-lol

Ireneparalegal · 11-22-2005, 10:15 PM

But that's what's good abt having Sweet Daddy have his own show, we could see more of him...instead of 'occasionally'. LOL

I agree. Wilona would have been a good choice for her own show. I can just imagine all the situations she could get into, without Penny of course. She could be the manager of the boutique she works at and she and Florida would still be the best of friends. Maybe she could even get a date for Florida every now and then.

They could have had Bookman divorce his wife, marry Willona, and run a hardware store.

I Agree! The only person I think that could have pulled a spin-off was JJ but I would really get tired of his character fast!
