You Should Have Quit While You Were Ahead: Television Spin-offs We Could Have Done Without

When Bill Cosby and Phylicia Rashad joined forces again, we had a glimmer of hope that “Cosby” would live up to the expectations we had for it. Sadly, we were mistaken. Though it wasn’t a direct spin-off of “The Cosby Show,” since it was actually based on the British sitcom One Foot in the Grave, but we had to include it among our spin-off letdowns because the reunion of Bill and Phylicia did nothing for us. Unfortunately the affinity for seeing these two stars back together was not enough to keep ratings up. The series was pulled off the air in April 2000 after four seasons.
