Mole Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Wasn't there a "Baywatch" spinoff? "Baywatch Hawaii" or something... There was also a Baywatch Nights spin-off with an X-Files motif. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just what the heck is that you're using for an avatar? I can't really make it out! And you're another Missourian, I see...it's really looking like there's a fair number of us about! And in KC, no less...are you by chance a member of, or even aware of, the KC Role-Players Guild? And the conventions they hold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeroTina Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Re: Another topic to discuss: The First NGD thread I'm not a big fan of spin-offs. Off hand, I can only think of one that worked (Frasier), and that was completely different from the original series. There may be another, but I can't think of it. Specific to Joey, though, I think this is a bad idea. A large part of his appeal is the relationship and banter with the other characters, especially Chandler. I wouldn't mind if they proved me wrong, though. If they concentrate on his acting career, I might actually be interested. His funniest bit ever was in one of his terrible productions. "...That's why I'm getting on this spaceship." Ahh, bad theatre. Thank god I've never been in a bad play... I like Joey as a character on Friends BUT, I doubt a spin off with with just him would last even a season. T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeroTina Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER I wanted to do something squirrel related for a bit. I'll find something more interesting later that I'm sure your tastes will appreciate. I thought of you on saturday SS. I was in a gun shop in Reno and they had this taxidermied squirrel with an orange safety vest, holding a rifle. I know it doesn't sound appealing BUT, I thought it would make a good avatar.

Rachel Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER And who can forget "Happy Days" and the ever-lovable "Joanie Loves Chachi"? "Highlander" had a spinoff I never watched... "Cosby" had a spinoff for Lisa Bonet, but she left and that other chick took over, and I can't for the life of me remember the name of it. "Happy Days" also had "Laverne & Shirley" and "Mork & Mindy". "Highlander" spun off "Raven". I think the Cosby spin off was "A Different Life." Or something like that. "Different Strokes" spun off "Facts of Life". I'm starting to scare myself. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austenandrews Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER "Three's Company" spun off "The Ropers." Woo! -AA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanguard00 Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER And just to do a spinoff on the spinoff thread, the infamous "jump the shark" website can be found at: http://www.jumptheshark.com/ And if you're wondering what "jump the shark" means, it's that defining moment in a TV series when everything after that is just downhill. The phrase is coined from the episode of "Happy Days" when Fonzie literally jumped a shark. The sight has votes on just about every TV show. It's a chuckle-worthy place to visit.

Vanguard00 Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER Personally, I'm getting tired of that expression. Doc I actually am, too, but after Tina posted the link to a page full of crossover/spinoff info, I figured I'd see about taking the TV talk in another direction. It's a strange and distracting day at work, and that was the best I could do on short notice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
