When TV shows showcase a huge amount of popularity, one of the quickest ways to get viewers, good ratings, and a quick buck is making spinoff shows based around minor or supporting characters taking the spotlight showing off their lives. Sometimes it works very well such as The Jefferson Family being a spinoff of All in the Family and sometimes it doesn't work very well such as The Cleveland Show being a spinoff of Family Guy. Nickelodeon has had varied spinoffs of their most popular shows and most of them have been total failures. There are exceptions though, but that's for another time. To make it on this list, it must have a character from another show be based around them. Also when you compare the spinoff to the original, there is that tangent feeling that they created it just because they want to milk the franchise for all its worth. You feel dirty that your favorite show from childhood is being run by corporate monsters who couldn't care less on ruining the program that you hold dearly by dragging it into the ground by half-ass attempts of entertainment. With that said, here are my top 10 worst Nickelodeon spinoff shows!
10. Crash Nebula Butch Hartman showed this pilot on Nickelodeon so that he can make it into a spinoff. Crash Nebula is one of two superheroes that were introduced in The Fairly Oddparents, the second being The Crimson Chin. It was an TV show about an intergalactic superhero named Crash Nebula fighting off against aliens to save the galaxy. Simple enough. While not as popular or shown more often as The Crimson Chin, Timmy Turner loves both of these superheroes equally. So when it was announced that Crash Nebula was going to be featured on a special episode of The Fairly Oddparents in 2004, many people were excited in seeing it. But it wasn't about adult Crash Nebula, it was an origin story on how a young dimwitted farm boy from the Midwest was invited to a space academy to learn how to be a superhero. It's slow, boring, unfunny, stupid, and extremely forgettable. With that, Butch Hartman scrapped the idea of a Crash Nebula spinoff and instead created Danny Phantom. Thank God! It's low on this list because this short never became a series. The other ones unfortunately did.
9. Action League Now!Out of all the shorts featured on KaBlam!, Action League Now! was the most popular. It was about a group of 4 idiotic, unreliable, and incompetent superheroes saving the day from an evil mayor. When KaBlam! ended in 2000, the spinoff came out 1 year later. The major problem with this spinoff was that it showed the same shorts that featured in KaBlam! as oppose to creating new ones. Since a short was only 4 to 5 minutes long, they showed 4 shorts as 1 episode. That right there is completely lazy! However, it's low on this list because I like Action League Now! Trust me, at least we got this short as oppose to the other short that almost was approved.
Oh God, no!!!
8. Binyah BinyahI already discussed about this show on my Gullah Gullah Island review and on my top 5 best and worst Nickelodeon preschool shows so I won't get into too much detail. But yes, the cute, yet annoying polliwog from Gullah Gullah Island did get his own spinoff show after Gullah Gullah Island went off the air. The show wasn't popular enough and it only lasted for 1 week. Enough said.
7. Moody's Point
Moody's Point was an occuring miniseries that featured on The Amanda Show. It was trying to be a spoof of Dawson's Creek and a lot of the emotional, dreary, and over-the-top angst filled teen series that were popular at the time. It's hard to tell if it is a spoof since there are times in which it takes itself a bit too seriously, especially in the last 3 skits when Moody's father lost his toe and Moody wanting to find her lost mother. When The Amanda Show was cancelled, Dan Schnieder wanted to make a spinoff of Moody's Point to continue the story after leaving it in a cliffhanger that Moody was actually switched at birth by accident, her real parents are circus performers, and showing who the real Moody was. But Nickelodeon denied this spinoff from being an actual series. Afterwards, Schnieder worked on creating
