    A cool idea would be a spin off of friends with Chandler, Monica, Joey.
In it Chandler and Monica would move out to the suburbs to raise a family
(since Monica would be pregnant).   Joey would have a career on a show
filmed in New York.
    The show would start off at the end of friends.   In the last episode
Ross would be offered a teaching position at a California University and he
would take it, Rachael would be made in charge of Ralph Loren (or some other
company) in Europe so she would move there and Probe would go off to
discover the world.

And it will last for about 3 episodes.

Sorry, but the magic of "Friends" is the six of them being together. If there are three of them, it just wouldn't work.

Besides, Joey's just excess baggage there. If anyone should get a spinoff, it should be Phoebe.

But Lisa wants to leave the show after season 8 and Joey would be a secondary character (only on every once in awhile). The show would manly focus on Chandler and Monica. "Mike the Real American Hero" wrote in message news:[email]...

there

spinoff, it

I never said that Lisa would actually want a spinoff. She's sick of Phoebe, and rightfully so. She's been typecast.

Matt LeBlanc would be the one that is most likely to cling to Joey or TV due to his lack of any success in the movies.

And how exciting could Chandler and Monica be together? Most of the people here strongly disliked season six, where they were the primary focus. If they had the same writers that "Friends" currently uses, the show would die. They're just not exciting with the current writers.

Again, unless all of the six are there (or five of them, in a worst-case scenario), the show would not last. The characters don't work without each other. And the actors won't do the characters without each other.

What I am talking about is moving a away from the whole friends universe. The only thing to carry over would be their characters. everything else would be cut. "Mike the Real American Hero" wrote in message news:[email]...

Even so, I don't think it would work. It was tried before with the show "Three's a Crowd", which was spun off of "Three's Company", and that show only lasted for one season, if that long.

Sometimes spin offs dont do too good, but there is, this may be a big suprise to some of you, a huge fan of Chandler and Monica. I think that that show might do good with these fans.

Just to throw this out... a good example of a spinoff that worked and has been quite popular would be Frasier. But for the most part, no, they don't seem to do too well.

I can't remember when I read it, but in the daily mail (I think)someone suggested a spin off from Frasier. A spin off from a spin off. is that even possible?

Toni **Rachel: It's not that common, it doesn't happen to every guy and it IS a big deal!!! Chandler: I knew it!**

"Good Times."

"Maude" was a spinoff of "All in the Family," and "Good Times" was a spinoff of "Maude."

"Possible"...well, I don't think there are any laws against it :)

Sure, The Andy Griffith Show was a spinoff of the Danny Thomas Show and Gomer Pyle was a spinoff of The Andy Griffith Show.

Sure. "Eddie" will make a fine show.

(Well, think about it: Frasier, Martin, and Niles it's almost impossible to do a different show about; Jane Leeves is English, so what are you going to do? Have her go back to England and create a show about her trying to fit back in? Great idea, but it's in England. Roz...well, I can't see a show about a single mom juggling her umpteen boyfriends and child being a mainstream seller, and if it's not about her home life, then it's the same situation she's in in Frasier...which has been pretty well covered. And doing a show about Roz happily married to a millionaire would be really dumb. And what other characters are there to do a show about? Aha! )

As would The Bulldog Show.

Kinda. Since Phoebe's twin sister Ursula was on "Mad About You" first, it kinda makes "Friends" a spinoff, though it's really not.

That's right. The situation, setting, and main characters in "Friends" were all original creations. Does anyone know, for certain, which show invented the sisters' family name of Buffay?

No. They shared an actress, not a character, and because they were on the same network, they made in-jokes about it.

I can't imagine anything more excruciating to watch than nothing but undiluted Monica screaming at Chandler for 22 minutes a week with no others to take up some of the slack. Ugh.

Truer words were never said. Well, okay, maybe Ross saying the word "Mondler" was truer, but that's not real.

Indeed Claire. So have Monica that doesn't scream at Chandler.
