Waldo should have had a spin off - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

He was seriously hilarious...and so stupid!

I thought he even beat out Urkel in the "I am so dumb, I need a lobotomy" department. And, he would have been perfect for his own silly show with him being a cook in a different town. They should have had him exit when they did and then the sitcom premiere mid season.

Anyone agree?

I would have watched "The Waldo Geraldo Faldo Show"!!

He was easily the funniest character on the show. The last season really suffered without him (though it had a lot of other problems as well) and his crazy comments.

A spin-off with him as the main character? Sure, I'd bite. He's probably the only character from this show that I would have watched starring in a spin-off.

Glad I'm not the only one who feels this way.

I just died laughing at Waldo earlier today when I was watching FM. He gave Eddie pajamas for Christmas and they were the same ones that Eddie already owned. Eddie tried pointing it out and Waldo's like "Well, I wanted to give you something I knew you would like! Now, I gotta go home before my dad lights the fireworks!" LMAO.

Something is so endearing about Waldo.

I dont think Waldo was a popular enough character to survive a spin-off he was funny but he never could hold a full conversation with eddy weasel and steve they never gave him a chance except his girlfriend maxine she gave him a chance to express himself which gave him the courage to be a Tap Dancer, the only way i can see a spin-off of Waldo is if they bring him a group of new friends maybe eddy and steve could guest star in a few episodes, they should have made the spin-off back in 1997-1998 where TV Shows were still in its prime.

Maxine could have been brought on with him. It would have been cute.

I loved Waldo's character but I think he was meant to be a supporting player. I'm not sure a whole show revolving around him would have worked.

A show about eddy's friend Weasel trying to get dates from women would make a great humor spin-off sitcom the guy was funny with his one liners lol
