What's the best spin-off? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

What was the best spin-off from one show that you loved and lasted a while. I would have to say FOL and The Jeffersons!

Probably one of the most successful and long lasting is "Frasier," which looks like it will be on the air as long as the show it was spun from.

britt britt · 06-09-2002, 12:55 PM

I think the best spin off is Laverne and Shirley!! That show rocks!!

THE FACTS OF LIFE!!!!!!

Ricardos4ever · 06-09-2002, 02:00 PM

The Jeffersons!!!!

SitcomChick · 06-09-2002, 02:18 PM

I'd say 'The Facts Of Life' and 'Frasier' are my personal favourite spin offs.

Facts of Life and Lavergne and Shirley are both tied in my book as great spinoffs.

LucyFan · 06-09-2002, 06:01 PM

I think these are the best spin-offs: Laverne & Shirley, The Jeffersons, The Brady Brides, and Family Matters.

Vinnie and Bobby!

Just Kidding!

The Bridy Brides,Frasier and yes Top of the heap (The show that spun-off Vinnie and Bobby) was pretty good also!

80sTrivia · 06-09-2002, 11:05 PM

The best spin-offs would have to be Frasier, Laverne & Shirley, The Jeffersons and Knott's Landing (from Dallas!)...

Will and Grace Fanatic · 06-10-2002, 12:06 PM

the spin off compared to the show it spun from would be the Facts of Life it is so much better then different Strokes.

Brian Damage · 06-10-2002, 06:22 PM

Frasier, Facts Of Life and The Tortelli's(I'll watch anything that was spun from Cheers!)
