10 failed TV spin-offs that should've been hits
Disney Channel
An updated continuation of the hit '90s sitcom "Boy Meets World," the spin-off had a lot going for it. Not only did it air on the hit-making Disney Channel, it featured the return of several stars from the original show and started the exploration of growing up from a young girl's point of view. But for whatever reason, it didn't come together for viewers.
Though they don't always take off, spin-offs aren't necessarily a bad idea. If a show is doing well, it's logical to networks and studios that a related series would be a draw for viewers.
But despite the research and talent involved, creating a hit isn't always so predictable, to the chagrin of executives.
The TV graveyard is full of failed spin-offs that should've been hits. And for every "Better Call Saul" that's chugging along fine, there are many spin-offs that never capture anything close to the glory of their predecessors.
