A Melrose Place Remake Is Really in the Works

Remember those crazy, Lisa Rinna-fueled rumors of a new spinoff edition of Melrose Place? Not so crazy after all. The CW really is developing a contemporary take on the Aaron Spelling soap opera. It's just barely in the works — there's no script or showrunner, nor has anything about the plot been revealed — but it's definitely in motion. So, OK, let's talk about this. It's true that 90210 Read more

Which L Word Lady Should Get a Spinoff?

At the TCA press tour, Showtime announced that the network is developing a spinoff of The L Word that would continue one woman's story after the show's final season airs.

Which Gossip Girl Character Would Have the Best Spinoff?

So, today's rumor that Gossip Girl could be getting a spinoff already seems a little sketchy — but that just means it's time for some more idle speculation on our part! Let's imagine that the show comes back in its second season and does amazingly well in the ratings. Its fan base just keeps growing.

House Producers Mulling Spinoff — Sort Of?

House, PI? There's some pretty bizarre news in today's Ask Ausiello column over at TV Guide, saying that the producers of House are considering a spinoff of the medical drama — but with a twist.

Which Actors Should be Cast in the New 90210 Spinoff?

Since we now have an outline of the main characters for the rumored 90210 spinoff, my brain can't stop thinking about who might be cast in these roles. While these new characters have updated traits and hobbies (emo! YouTube!) they are, as some have pointed out, more or less the new versions of the original cast. While we all have our old favorites, I think it's really fun imagining the young Read more
