Way to milk a franchise!

Sooooooo in the beginning, there was Flavour of Love. Followed by Flavour of Love 2, then I Love New York... Where can they go from here?

 

 

 

wait for it...

 

 

 

 

Flavour of Love Girls: Charm School.

 

 

Way to extend your fifteen (sometimes even less) minutes of fame *cough* "Ladies"!

 

 

Gotta say, the trainwreck factor alone is enough to get me to want to watch.

VH1 is just doing what every other network does. Hey CSI is cool... lets go all over the world with it.

 

TV is just like any other economy. It is all about supply and demand. If you supply a great show once a week for a few months out of the year, it will be big. but if you begin to do spin-offs while the original is on, you dilute your audience.

Which is why SENSIBLY they stop at three shows simultaneously. They put out a fourth Law & Order and it tanked horribly. CSI: Houston would do precisely the same.

[Guest Emperor]

Again why not just stick with one and keep it original and fresh. It is like making a sequel to a movie, the original is always the best.

 

I am trying to think of all the successful spinoffs out there and all I can think of is Fraiser.

Isn't Boston Legal a spinoff of The Practice?

[Guest Yveva]

but I think in this case it is slightly different because it's a reality show. Technically I suppose the first three shows have self-defeating purposes. If Flave finds real love he won't be back for another season. In shows like Bachelor/Bachelorette/Joe Millionaire/whatev, you just introduce a new protagonist each season. These spinoffs aren't run simultaneously, but there is enough of a recurring cast to bring back viewers (producers hope). I admit, I didn't see charm school coming though. I'm wondering where else they can go with this, a weekly talk show? A how to be a 'ho course?

I always wanted to be a ho....

 

snap out of it Empy

The pay's not bad, and the uniforms are pretty fun, but the medical plan is terrible.

[Guest Yveva]

So that's why Empy kept trying to get me to paint his nails for him tonight. *sigh*

I wouldn't mind CSI: Los Angeles :D

 

It would cover Hollywood and Chatsworth.
