As far as I know, it's a series that comes from another series, when a character gets his own show. for example, Frasier, from Cheers, Xena from Hercules... I'm sure there are plenty of series that started like this. A baru-baru ini spin-off was 'Private Practice' of which the leading character is originally from 'Grey's Anatomy'.on a side note, I think the term comes from business, like when a big company launches a new one.
It's when anda take a minor character from one tunjuk and turn that character into its own show, like Jeffersons came from All In the Family, and the Ghostfacers came from Supernatural.
A spin off is when 2 charaters from diffrent games atau shows come together. Like the Simpsons are walking down the jalan and then they see... uhhh, Jade and Beck from Victorious (I know this sounds werid) and then the simpsons and Jade and Beck go on a trip atau something, thats a crossover
Like Planet Sheen is a spin-off of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius. (A smart alih I think. Sheen was always my kegemaran character from the tunjuk C: C: C: C:)
