5 TV Spin-Offs Better Left Unspun

A handful of TV spin-offs have been wildly successful.

Take for example, the hit show "Frasier," which was spun off from "Cheers," or the slew of "CSI" and "Law & Order" spin-offs or "The Jeffersons" (from "All in the Family").

Unfortunately these success stories are few and far between. More often than not, TV spin-offs not only fail, but fail miserably.

Too many lovable characters have been ruined simply because someone decided they should live on forever. Some spin-offs fail because they change the character(s) too much, some fail by changing them too little, and some fail because they just flat-out stink.

Some failed so badly we hesitate to even acknowledge their existence: We're looking at you Scott Baio and Erin Moran.

To "honor" these clunkers, we have put together a list of the top five worst TV spin-offs of all time. Check it out and see if you agree.
