Should 9-1-1 have another spinoff? If so, what would you like to see?


It's being reported in Deadline that FOX is considering another 9-1-1 spinoff, and as a big fan of the franchise I'm not sure that's a good idea, at least for now. Especially with they way the showrunners and writers have done such a terrible job with the first half of the fifth season of 9-1-1. I think they need to focus on fixing the original series before trying to add yet another spinoff to the franchise. Even the promotion for the first half of the fifth season was bad especially compared to how good the promotion was for the third season of 9-1-1: Lone Star. It's as if the original show has become an afterthought to the network, so I'm not sure how adding a new series would be a good idea.

However, if by chance the 9-1-1 showrunners and writers can pull off an impressive and spectacular second half of the fifth season and 9-1-1: Lone Star's third season continues to stay as good as it is now then maybe another series should be added. I was thinking about what spinoffs I would be interested in watching and there are three that come to mind.

TV Review: 9-1-1 S5 ep 7: Ghost Stories

Monday's episode of 9-1-1 is reported as being an all time low in ratings for the series and it's not hard to see why. The episode Ghost Stories wasn't one of the best, it wasn't awful but it wasn't that good either. And that's because it feels like the writers are trying to turn the show into something it's not. Viewers watch and love 9-1-1 because the show has the perfect blend of comedy, drama and action but the Ghost Stories episode had too much weird editing, writing and acting. The episode barely focused on the firefighters going on emergency calls instead it mainly focused on TV Reporter Taylor Kelly trying to solve a mystery which had her going up against Police Detective Lou Ransone.
