These TV Shows Did So Well That They Got Box Office Spin-Offs

The Rugrats

The Rugrats are a Nickelodeon classic. The lovable, albeit annoying, characters are forever a part of every 90's kid's childhood. The big-screen adaptation was called Rugrats Go Wild, and did much better than The Wild Thornberrys, which debuted the same year.

Spongebob Squarepants

The Spongebob Squarepants Movie follows our beloved fry cook being passed up for a promotion, fighting off thugs, and saving all of Bikini Bottom from Plankton's wrath. Casual. There's even a David Hasselhoff feature.
