Spin-Off Goals: Would ‘Game of Thrones’ benefit from something more?

Matt Carter — Mon, 29 Feb 2016 20:48:02 +0000

Through five seasons so far, “Game of Thrones” has become a global sensation. It’s the biggest success story in the history of HBO, it draws enormous ratings, and its merchandising is off the charts. It manages to bring them countless money and attention, and this is with it only airing for ten weeks a year. […]

Spin-Off Goals: Should ‘Castle’ season 8 spawn into something more for Alexis?

How do you spin off a show like “Castle”? It’s an interesting question, given that so many of the characters are integral to the story. You cannot do something just about Rick or Kate, for example, since you would be forcing one of them away from the other. That’s a sight that nobody out there […]

Spin-Off Goals: Could ‘Supernatural,’ season 11 or later, spawn another show?

Matt Carter — Sat, 27 Feb 2016 19:49:49 +0000

For many years, we wondered whether or not “Supernatural” was ever going to be given a spin-off, only to then have the backdoor pilot for “Bloodlines” arrive. On paper, this was a smart idea to craft something that could be the big-city alternative to the Jensen Ackles – Jared Padalecki series that had a little […]

Spin-Off Goals: Could ‘Luther’ season 5 happen with a (living) Alice Morgan?

Matt Carter — Sat, 27 Feb 2016 04:04:02 +0000

At the moment, “Luther” is a series in a sort of stasis. The BBC has not announced if there will be more story to tell for Idris Elba and company; as a matter of fact, there are some indications that we may be at the end of the show on TV. Now that we’ve said […]

Spin-Off Goals: Should ‘Call the Midwife’ through Jessica Raine’s Jenny back into the mix?

Matt Carter — Thu, 25 Feb 2016 19:42:13 +0000

For the first three seasons of its existence on the BBC, “Call the Midwife” had a pretty clear star in Jessica Raine. An older Jennifer Worth (Vanessa Redgrave) serves as the show’s narrator, and much of the action in Nonnatus House was told through her lens. Since her departure it has become more of an […]

Spin-Off Goals: Should ‘The Vampire Diaries’ do more with Valerie, Nora, Mary Louise?

Matt Carter — Thu, 25 Feb 2016 05:47:57 +0000

Who knew that “The Vampire Diaries” would have such an interesting roster of recurring guest stars for season 7? We it is definitely not a surprise to see the show introduce people, but Julie Plec and Caroline Dries struck a little bit of gold with Valerie, Nora, and Mary Louise. These three women may have […]

Spin-Off Goals: Should Ryan Eggold’s Tom on ‘The Blacklist’ season 3 step out on his own?

Matt Carter — Mon, 22 Feb 2016 16:24:42 +0000

Throughout this season on “The Blacklist,” we’ve seen Tom Keen try to figure out a way to fit into the story, and at times, it has proven itself to be rather difficult. He doesn’t have that many connections to the task force beyond Liz, and his relationship with Reddington is certainly rather complicated and then […]

Spin-Off Goals: Will ‘Scandal’ season 5 lead to something more for Scott Foley’s Jake?

Matt Carter — Mon, 22 Feb 2016 01:02:21 +0000

At times, we feel almost like “Scandal” is a pair of different shows. You’ve got at one angle everything that Olivia Pope is doing fixing clients in Washington DC, and then on the other hand everything that is going on with the likes of Jake, Rowan, and a variety of other secret government operations. In […]

Spin-Off Goals: Should ‘Scorpion’ season 2 lead into something for Toby, Happy?

Matt Carter — Sat, 20 Feb 2016 02:58:01 +0000

“Scorpion” has done a really great job over the course of the series’ run when it comes to cultivating characters. You’ve got a great core group of interesting, quirky people who have such depth and heart to go along with their intelligence, and you really want to see them succeed. With that, we transition now […]

Spin-Off Goals: Could ‘Suits’ season 5 lead to larger Sheila story?

Matt Carter — Fri, 19 Feb 2016 08:56:56 +0000

We have definitely made our adoration of all things “Suits” clear at CarterMatt over the years, and one of the many things that we love about is that there is this great arsenal of recurring characters that the writers can go to in order to fill out a story. One of the things that we’ve […]
