‘The Neighborhood’ Spinoff Canceled: Everything We Know About the Show
A spinoff for The Neighborhood had previously been rumored at CBS, but that plan is changing, according to recent reports.
What was once in the works is not in the can as an official pick-up won’t move forward at the network. This means The Neighborhood‘s upcoming eighth season will be the final chapter for the franchise at this time. While it’s surely disappointing news for fans of the CBS series, we’re breaking down everything that had been revealed about the previously teased spinoff that is no longer to be.
Is the new Neighborhood spinoff officially happening?
No, according to TV Line, CBS has pulled the plug on the previously teased series.
What would The Neighborhood spinoff have been about?
According to Deadline, the premise of the spinoff would have revolved around the Butler sons, Marty (Marcel Spears) and Malcolm (Sheaun McKinney), as they tackle a new adventure by leaving their family’s nest to kick off the next chapters of their lives. This next chapter would have seen them occupy a new neighborhood that isn’t too far away, but may as well have been worlds apart as they took on Venice Beach.

Who would have starred in The Neighborhood spinoff?
As previously mentioned, Spears and McKinney would have reprised their roles as Mary and Malcolm to lead the show, and it had been announced that Justin Long, Kara Royster, Hunter King, and Angelique Cabral were also poised to guest star in The Neighborhood‘s forthcoming Season 7 finale as part of a backdoor pilot for the spinoff as potential cast members for the new show that will no longer move forward.
Per Deadline, Long had been set to play a tech millionaire named Bruce, Royster would have portrayed Malcolm’s new neighbor and would-be influencer Matisse, King was to appear as Bellamy, a content creator for a cannabis boutique, and Cabral would have played Lisa, a book agent with her sights on Malcolm’s writing.
Who would have made The Neighborhood spinoff?
Hailing from CBS Studios and production companies including Cedric the Entertainer‘s A Bird and a Bear Entertainment, Kapital Entertainment, and TrillTV, the spinoff would have come from The Neighborhood showrunners Bill Martin and Mike Schiff, who would have executive produced with Cedric the Entertainer, Aaron Kaplan, Wendi Trilling, and Eric C. Rhone.

The sons are awesome and will kick a** with a spin off. They are hilarious. I hope characters from both shows will make guest appearances on each others show. Neighborhood would not be the same without the boys at least popping in once and a while. I also hope that Courtney's character is also on the spin off and her and Marty are in a relationship.

This would have been a great "follow-up" to the Neighborhood ". The Butler son's have great personalities and the storyline between Marty and his girlfriend and them raising their daughter was priceless! CBS messed up on this one! I guess that next on their list will be "Poppa's House!" 😐😐

I think that Paramount are getting rid of the good shows and I don't like it. They took away So help me Todd after 1season and it was a cmdy drama. Also they're about to cancel The Equalizer, and The Neighborhood. I like all of these shows, hopefully Netflix or Peacock pickup some of these show

I think the network is crap for pulling the show to begin with anything decent they pull. I’m so sick of reality shows I don’t care who gets a flower. I don’t care who’s being a voyeur and a big brother house. I don’t care who’s racing. I just want to laugh

I'm so excited to know that they're coming back for the 8th season. At the same time it's better sweet knowing that this will be the final season 😭. This was a very good show with very good actress I really was looking forward to the spinoff. Now knowing that will not be happening it's really truly disappointing to hear. I personally would like to thank for the laughs and the jokes that you all shared with all of us. Me personally this show and the actors will truly be missed💯🥰🥰 I pray that you all come out with something new and always stay blessed 🫶🏾🙏🏾
