Inspired by the supernatural night shift meme from The Pitt, what are shows where you could fit in a supernatural plot running underneath the main show without breaking it?
For the uninitiated, there is a desire for The Pitt to have a show that follows the night shift team because everyone who pops up from the night shift has been extremely compelling and confident.
Within that conversation, there’s a subset who believe that a supernatural slant on the Night Shift could be as entertaining as it is utterly ridiculous.
This got me thinking, what are other shows that could fit this mold without breaking the main show? I think the pit situation could work because we followed the dayshift and historically in supernatural shows things go bump in the night, so it would allow the pit to exist as it currently does without breaking it while also accounting for this absolutely insane concept
I could 100% see a spin-off of HIMYM that follows Barney as a male succubus whose playbook is deliberately structured because consensual sex keeps him young but falling in love will make him lose his mortality and he has sex with a lot of women to avoid falling in love but when he gets with Robin, it starts to have him age, and his daughter in the finale is his true love and allows him to live a fulfilling life until he dies, a transformed man.
