CBS is developing ‘The Neighbors’ spinoff based on Marty and Malcolm
CBS is developing a spinoff of “The Neighbors” starring Marcel Spears and Sean McKinney, Variety has confirmed.
If the multi-camera series proceeds, it will follow their characters Marty and Malcolm Butler as they venture out from their parents’ home and move from Pasadena to Venice Beach. The show has not yet set an episode sequence, but is considering airing it in the 2025-2026 season.
This will be the second spinoff of “The Neighbors,” which is currently airing its seventh season. The show stars Max Greenfield as Dave Johnson, a white father from Michigan who moves his family to a predominantly black neighborhood in Los Angeles. Not everyone appreciates his “Midwestern friendliness,” including Calvin Butler (Cedric the Entertainer). Spears and McKinney play Calvin’s sons Marty and Malcolm.
The Marty and Malcolm spinoff in development is executive produced by Bill Martin, Mike Schiff, Cedric the Entertainer, Aaron Caplan, Wendy Trilling and Eric C. Rona .
