Could a Spinn-Off show of Ghetto wild party girl Pam and her hoodlum friends from The Cosby Show could have their own tv series do you think it could have worked out to be a funny and entertaining sitcom ?

I do remember the few times her friends gathered on the show, it did seem like a setup for a spinoff, now that I think about it.

Unless they ripped off, or joined A Different world, I don't think it would have gotten anywhere.

Yeah it would have to be where pam and her ghetto friends graduate from high school and go to the same college together not where Denise went to like on ADW but another college, they could bring in new characters and also have the huxtables come to visit her from time to time, i am sure Bill Cosby was thinking about it but changed his mind.

That must have been where the idea for Living Single came from.

Probably not, spinoffs seem to only work when the parent show is HOT.

The fact that the Cosby show was already falling in the ratings I think a spinoff would have too

If Cosby made a sitcom about pam and her friends people all over the world would shout out that it was just a Ripp-Off of Fresh Prince of Bel, will and pam had the same personality they were both straight out the hood and had that ghetto attitude lol

Pam was a little more street than Will

Will was never street to me
