Disney Creates 'That's So Raven' Spinoff - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Disney Channel is betting that "That's So Raven," its most successful series, can be the source of another winning show.

"Cory in the House," the channel's first series spinoff, will feature characters Cory and Victor Baxter from "That's So Raven" and will be set in the White House, the channel said Thursday. A November premiere is planned.

"Raven" stars Kyle Massey and Rondell Sheridan will reprise their roles as the son and father, now adjusting to life in Washington after dad Victor is chosen as personal chef to the newly elected president, Richard Martinez.

The role of President Martinez has yet to be cast.

Living in the staff quarters of the White House with his father, teenager Cory has to contend with the antics of the president's 8-year-old daughter and adjust to life at an exclusive Washington school.

Marc Warren and Dennis Rinsler, executive producers for "That's So Raven," are in charge of "Cory in the House."

"That's So Raven," which debuted in 2003 and stars actress-singer Raven-Symone ("The Cosby Show"), has wrapped production but will continue to air new episodes in which Raven pursues her dream of becoming a fashion designer.

The series was the channel's most-watched and had the most episodes produced, 100. It also spawned a merchandising wave of DVDs, video games, clothing, dolls and books.

Raven-Symone, who begins a concert tour next week, just completed filming on the Disney Channel movie "The Cheetah Girls 2," about four friends aspiring to be pop stars. The TV movie will debut in August.

Personally, I don't think it's going to be the same without Raven on this show. But that's just my opinion.

ditto. It sounds lame.

I don't think Cory and his father can carry a whole show.

This sounds dumb.

Yeah, Tanya was kinda useless in TSR. I like the episodes where she wasn't in there better.

But I am getting into the Suite Lilfe!

I never thought I'd say it, but one night I had nothing else to watch, and Suite Life was on, and I actually thought it wasn't so bad. The twins can get annoying though.

It could be a success...I'll watch the first episode out of curiousity which I'm sure alot of TSR fans will do. It'll probably get alot of the younger TSR fans too.

SkyAngel15 · 05-22-2006, 04:46 PM

Yeah I might watch it too, just to see how good it is. But it is NEVER going to be as good as TSR was.

moeee · 05-22-2006, 07:11 PM

You never know but, This show could actually be better than TSR.

SkyAngel15 · 05-22-2006, 07:55 PM

Oh please! This show is just a TSR-wannabe. Without Raven, this show isn't worth watching in my opinion! sorry if I sound harsh, this is just my opinion.
