Well, if a show lasts for a long time, they need to introduce new characters and plotlines to keep the audience entertained and prevent its cancellation. They've kept us waiting a long time for Season 9, so people would have been anticipating for it and getting all excited, so they needed something special lined up or we would have a bunch of useless suspense and a clichéd plotline. They did that with Poof, to keep the audiene watching, I mean, I bet you were all excited a few days before Fairly OddBaby. However, Poof caused a mixed reaction. Some found him adorable and a great addition to the show, and others found that he completely wrecked it. The latter may have seen it less frequently, which would have caused a decrease in the show's popularity.

So to bump it back up again, they added Sparky. We can only wait to see how this turns out.
