How about Joey? I notice it didn't even get a passing mention on that Friends reunion special. Talking of special, those old enough to remember Joanie Loves Chachi can probably still taste the sick in their mouths. Although revisiting Happy Days itself makes you wonder how it ever remained successful for so long. In fact, it was pretty guff from the very beginning. Mrs Columbo was an obscene idea that collapsed accordingly. There were three spin offs from M*A*S*H. you forgot Trapper John (technically a spin off from the movie and I believe W*A*L*T*E*R was a RADAR spin off 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started the thread on another BSG spin-off. They all suck. And a new one coming out soon I'm excited about (it's the hope that kills you) what one???! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theroadlesstravelled Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 The Hobbit Trilogy was pretty shite. Interestingly the first movie came out 11 years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Simpson was spun-off into its own show from the Tracey Ullman Show. I suppose Alan Partridge, Ali G, and Colbert Report solo stuff would count in that regard. I've never watched it personally, but Law & Order SVU is typically rated higher than the original. Yeah Special Victims is my least favourite Law And Order but it went on the longest. Law and Order with Lennie was good, his one liners always made me laugh, liked him in Murder She Wrote too. Criminal Intent was really good to start with but went down hill when they did Goran falling apart, never like it when they start bringing in their personal life to expose flaws in the characters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 (edited) Man About The House spin offs, Robin's Nest & George And Mildred. I remember going to see George And Mildred with my mum and dad during our hols on a pier show in one of the seaside towns in England but can't remember where. Also went to see a Paul Daniels show, we were easily entertained back in those days. Edited April 6, 2023 by LIVIFOREVER 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coprolite Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 I thought Murder 101 was a spin off from Diagnosis Murder but it turns out there's different characters and everything. Sorry for wasting everyone's time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arthur daley Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 (edited) Minder “the ray years“ Not a spin-off as such but felt like one but after terry left, it was named minder after terry and the programme was made for him after the sweeney finished , then when he left my arsehole nephew took over ,and with a change of cast of the lesser characters of the filth threw the years Aswell ,the ray years minder should never have happened. And as for the Shane Ritchie spin off where do I start on that fs! Edited April 13, 2023 by Arthur daley 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
