5 spin-offs of the series that we would like to see

In recent years the universe of TV series has expanded impressively and one of the most popular trends in the world of entertainment are spin-offs. These spin-offs allow fans to further explore the stories and characters they loved in the original series, maintaining interest even after the main storylines end.

The spin-off series concept opens a window into new narratives, giving content creators the opportunity to expand already established universes and delve deeper into themes, characters and events that were previously just part of the background.

Many successful series have already given rise to iconic spin-offs, such as “Better Call Saul” (from “Breaking Bad”) or “Fear the Walking Dead” (from “The Walking Dead”). However, there are still countless productions whose universes have great potential to generate equally intriguing parallel stories. Below, we explore five spinoff series we’d like to see come to life on the small screen, focusing on characters and storylines that have left fans wanting more.

5 spin-offs of the series that we would like to see

Hogwarts: Rise of Houses (Harry Potter spin-off)

The Harry Potter universe has already been expanded with the “Fantastic Beasts” films, but many fans are still waiting for a more in-depth exploration of the origins of the four houses of Hogwarts. A spin-off that dealt with the founding of the school and the emergence of the houses of Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff would be a true time travel experience for fans of this magical world.

This spin-off could explore the lives of the four founders: Godric Gryffindor, Salazar Slytherin, Rowena Ravenclaw and Helga Hufflepuff. The plot would have the potential to combine elements of adventure, drama and magic, while revealing the construction of Hogwarts and the internal tensions that led to the separation between the houses.

Furthermore, it would be fascinating to follow Salazar’s youth and better understand his motivations for creating the controversial tradition of accepting only pure-blood students into his home, a theme that reverberated throughout the main saga.

With a vast universe to explore, this spinoff would give fans the opportunity to delve into an era of magic that is still a mystery, exploring how wizards and witches from different backgrounds began to shape the future of the wizarding world.

Before Game of Thrones (Game of Thrones spin-off)

The Game of Thrones universe is already vast, with intertwining books, series and parallel stories. However, a spin-off that delves into the stories of the great houses of Westeros before the rise of Robert Baratheon could be a runaway success.

Fans of the series have always shown curiosity to learn more about historical events, such as Robert’s Rebellion, the fall of the Targaryens, and even the famous tournament at Harrenhal, where several conspiracies took shape.

The series could explore young Ned Stark, Robert Baratheon, and Lyanna Stark, revealing in detail how the Rebellion began and what really happened between the plot’s more enigmatic characters, such as Rhaegar Targaryen.

Additionally, a spinoff focusing on this period could further expand the mythology of Westeros, presenting a more detailed and political version of the events that gave rise to the chaos of “Game of Thrones.”

With epic fights, political intrigue and complex relationships, this spin-off will deepen the history of the families we already know, while offering a new look at the formation of the Game of Thrones.

Breaking Bad: The Affairs of Gus Fring (Breaking Bad spin-off)

Breaking Bad already had a very successful spin-off with “Better Call Saul,” but another character who deserves his own show is Gus Fring, the enigmatic owner of Los Pollos Hermanos and powerful drug trafficker. A spin-off showcasing Gus’ rise in the world of crime would be unmissable.

The series could explore his youth in Chile, his early forays into drug trafficking and how he built his empire with coolness and precision. Additionally, seeing Gus’ relationships with Don Eladio and Hector Salamanca before the events of “Breaking Bad” would give fans a more in-depth look at conflicts that were only hinted at in the original series.

With an approach that focuses on both legitimate business and drug trafficking, this spin-off would have the dark, intelligent tone that made Breaking Bad a global phenomenon, but with new characters and scenarios to explore.

Michonne: Solitaire Survival (spin-off of The Walking Dead)

“The Walking Dead” has already spawned several spinoffs, but one focused solely on Michonne’s journey before she joined the main group of survivors would be something fans would love to see. Michonne is one of the most mysterious and badass characters in the series, and there’s so much more to her story that has yet to be explored.

This spin-off could show how she survived alone with her two zombie “pets”, facing both human and undead enemies. The plot could delve into her motivations, the losses she suffered and what transformed her into the relentless warrior we know.

Furthermore, the series could explore new communities and villains never seen in the original series, bringing freshness to the franchise and a new perspective on survival in the post-apocalyptic world.

Khal Drogo: The Dothraki Conqueror (Game of Thrones spin-off)

Khal Drogo was one of the most memorable characters of the first season of “Game of Thrones,” and while his presence on the series was relatively brief, his impact was long-lasting. A spin-off focusing on his rise as leader of the Dothraki would be a perfect opportunity to explore one of Westeros’ most ferocious and enigmatic peoples.

The series could begin with Drogo as a young man, showing how he became the powerful Khal who led the greatest khalasar of all time. The spin-off could explore the traditions and customs of the Dothraki, as well as their campaigns of conquest and internecine wars. Additionally, it would be interesting to see the power struggles between the different Khalasar and the alliances that Drogo had to make (and break) to consolidate his power.

Conclusion

Series spinoffs have the power to expand universes and delve deeper into characters that have already won the hearts of fans. Whether exploring the pasts of mysterious characters or revealing new adventures in established universes, the possibilities are endless.

With these five suggested spin-offs, audiences would have the chance to revisit iconic stories, exploring new horizons and details only hinted at in the original productions. Who knows, maybe one day one of them could take off and become the next big hit on TV? After all, with so much potential, it’s hard not to imagine what else these universes have to offer.
