not exactly sure, but wasn't Matt Leblanc involved..he played the cousin or something of Kelly and Bud and then he got his own show?
I don't think "The New Avengers" qualified as a spin off, it was a sequel to the original.
TNA was shot right here in Toronto for a few episodes.
I agree with you, but Cat has been including sequels as "spinoffs" in his earlier spinoff questions: i.e. Return of the Saint, New Love American Style, etc.
A loose definition of a spin of is when a TV program is derived from a previous show with some story line and/or some of the previous actors. An example of a spin off is The Saint (1962–1969) with Roger Moore, in Return of the Saint (1978–1979)
he is replaced by Ian Ogilvy taking over the role Simon Templar, and because the story line is continued this show is a spin off.
In Seinfeld, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Michael Richards have later short lived shows with no connection to Seinfeld in plot or character, therefore it is not a spin-off.
Al Capone was arrested in 1926 for killing three people, but spent only one night in jail because there was insufficient evidence to connect him with the murders.
