Some of the best examples of series that generated spinoffs and continued to run include: 1) All in the Family: spun off The Jeffersons, Maude 2) Happy Days: spun off Laverne & Shirley, Mork & Mindy, Joanie Loves Chachi 3) The Golden Girls: spun off Empty News, Nurses 4) CSI: spun off versions set in Miami, NYC 5) Law & Order: spun off SVU, CI versions 6) The Mary Tyler Moore Show: spun off Rhoda, Phyllis However, often shows that are ending will spinoff new series to keep beloved characters.
