You Take The Good, You Take The Bad…TV Spin-offs [Podcast]

Spin-offs seem like they are a necessity to television. People like a show and the creators take certain parts of that show and create another show to see if they can keep the interest up. (Or at least make some money.) Some are good, some are bad, some you might not even realize are spin-offs. These shows are what we discuss in the latest Get Geekish Podcast.

What is a spin-off? According to Wikipedia, “A spin-off in television is a new series which contains either , a different character or theme elements from a previous series. They are particularly common in situation comedy. A related phenomenon, not to be confused with the spin-off, is the crossover.”

From Buffy to Angel, from Friends to Joey, from He-Man to She-Ra, from Herucles to Xena, From Happy Days to Mork and Mindy, to the entire run of Star Trek shows…what was your favorite spin-off show?
