Bad Saturday morning cartoon spin-offs of good shows

While Hanna-Barbera, Filmation and Ruby-Spears were popular with their hits such as Scooby-Doo, The Flintstones, Alvin and the Chipmunks and Yogi Bear, sometimes they created cartoons with the poor source material, cheap, limited animation produced on a low budget, and adding other stuff to the shows like space and other junk.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Most of these shows were made just to cash in the success of another show. While nobody asked for these shows, they were just made no matter what.
 * 2) They recycle it with space and other junk, which has little to nothing to do with the original show to the point of being the poster children for Recycled In Space. The Partridge Family 2200 A.D., The Fonz and the Happy Days Gang, and Laverne & Shirley in the Army are prime examples.
 * 3) * There are also useless characters, the main example being the sons of the main characters.
 * 4) Some shows have a poor grasp of the source material.
 * 5) The animation in some shows is very limited, cheap, and was produced on a very low budget.
 * 6) They're heavily outdated nowadays.
 * 7) Starting in the late the '80s to early '90s, they started making younger versions of their beloved characters, which were all awful except for mh:besttvshows:A Pup Named Scooby-Doo! and Tom & Jerry Kids.
 * 8) * Yo Yogi! tried modernizing the characters to be "hip" and "cool", since it was made in the '90s.
 * 9) * It almost helped end some franchises.
 * 10) ** After The Flintstones: On The Rocks, The Flintstones did not make another appearance for 14 years until 2015's Stone Age SmackDown crossover with WWE.
 * 11) ** After Yo Yogi!, Yogi Bear did not make another series for 29 years until Jellystone! premiered on HBO Max.
 * 12) So many bad shows, such as:
 * 13) * Josie and The Pussycats in Outer Space
 * 14) * Goober and the Ghost Chasers
 * 15) * The Partridge Family 2200 A.D.
 * 16) * The Tom and Jerry Show
 * 17) * Fred and Barney Meet The Thing
 * 18) * The Fonz and the Happy Days Gang
 * 19) * Laverne & Shirley in the Army
 * 20) * Mork & Mindy/Laverne & Shirley/Fonz Hour
 * 21) * Popeye and Son
 * 22) * Yo Yogi!

Good Qualities

 * 1) Some of the shows are "so bad, they're good", such as The Fonz and the Happy Days Gang and Fred And Barney Meet The Thing.
 * 2) At least it did not make the Scooby-Doo franchise go on hiatus, since Arabian Nights was made in 1994 and Zombie Island was made in 1998.
 * 3) Some very good/decent shows from this era, such as:
 * 4) * Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels
 * 5) * The Dukes
 * 6) * Pink Panther & Sons
 * 7) * Punky Brewster
 * 8) * Flintstone Kids was a very good Saturday morning prequel to the primetime sitcom series.
 * 9) * Casper and the Angels
 * 10) * Punky Brewster (the live-action series)
 * 11) * The Little Rascals
 * 12) * Jeannie
 * 13) * Captain Caveman and Son
 * 14) * The Addams Family
 * 15) * Yogi's Space Race
 * 16) * ALF: The Animated Series was also quite a good prequel to the sitcom series it was named after.
 * 17) The Italian dub of their shows is positive and underrated.

Trivia
