Which canceled shows would you like to see come back as a spinoff? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

For me the answer is simple

THE NANNY
I'd love to see what happened in California.
I'd like to see the show pick up where it left off.
They had twins & moved to CA
The oldest daughter got married & moved to Paris
The Son decided to skip a year of college & backpack accross europe
Niles & CC got married & were expecting a baby
There is tons of material here that was dangled in front of our noses but never got sniffed.

MAD ABOUT YOU
The spin off for this should be Mabel
The focus on her with P & J as her parents.
The writers for MAY had a good thing going the 1st 4 years but they went all goofy & got away from the premise of the show.
I'd like to see the couple get another chance but take them out of the spotlight & put the focus more on the daughter (in her teen or preteen years) & how she deals with them & the rest of her neurotic family & in turn how they deal with her.

and finally

CENTRAL PERK
Which would be a spin off of all the NBC shows...
Basically my idea is this: Remember those episodes where characters from other NBC shows would visit each others shows??? Well thats pretty much all this show would be about. Imagine with me if you will.....
Central Perk (the coffee house) would be sort of like the meeting place. Each episode would have different characters from different shows & past present and the only staple characters would be those who work in the coffee shop. GUNTHER!!!!
People would come by & hang out or meet in the coffee shop & the episode would be created around that. It would be like a continuious revolving door of guest stars. The show doesn't nescesarily have to entirely take place IN the coffee shop but it would be where things would start or end as the show revolves around it. This would give an oppertonity for us to catch up on some of our favorite characters... a sort of "Where are they now" / "reunion" for those stories we love. In addition it could combine charecters of differnt shows in one episode & for those stars who gave us laughs in the past & have been out of the lime light too long, its a chance for them to get in front of the camera once again.

I'd like that "Central Perk" idea if it wasn't NBC. I practically hate NBC right now, (long story). I think they should have continued "Three's Company" with the Terri character helping the "sick, ailing native peoples" of Hawaii. I think that'd be a funny show.....which is why I've been writing it for the past 2 years lol

I'd like to see a sequel to "Cheers" & "Seinfeld".

James · 06-05-2003, 01:49 AM

The following shows I would like to see come back as a spinoff:

The Andy Griffith Show (is Opie the new Sheriff of Mayberry?)

The Brady Bunch (with Florence, Ann B., Barry, Chris, Mike, Maureen, Eve, and Susan (and possibly Robbie!)--one reason I didn't watch the Fox special in November was their absence. Oh, and Gene Hackman could play Mike!)

Happy Days

State of Grace (according to some sources it's cancelled; I thought of it as the second coming of The Wonder Years)

The Wonder Years (are Kevin's kids in junior high yet?)

It's a show on the ABC Family Channel about a young girl growing up in 1960s North Carolina. It's very much like The Wonder Years, except that the main character is female--and, the location is given.

I think I'd also like to see
THE LOVE BOAT
as a spin off
using stars from this generation.

That was a great show. I miss it & I think it bites that THE WALTONS have replaced it in the mornings,

I had to get a whole new morning ritual.
PLBBT!
