Also known as third generation spin-offs. A show that is a spin-off of a show that itself is a spin-off.
There are even some instances (according to the internet) of more than three generations of spin-offs.
For example ...
Some iffy ones (to name three) could be the different Transformers shows or the various Super Friends shows, even the three different He-Man cartoon series.
Iffy because there's little or no continuity between each series, they are simply individually produced series that just happen to feature the same characters, but could be considered spin-offs because they do have the same characters and with the examples of the Super Friends & some of the Transformers series, the same voice actors.
This used to be an easy one. For years, NBC's "Frasier," which starred Kelsey Grammer as the character he made famous on "Cheers," was the most successful TV spinoff of all-time. "Frasier" ran for 11 seasons, won numerous Emmy Awards and was among prime-time's Top 10 most popular series for four of those seasons.
Lately, though, the spinoff crown goes to CBS' "NCIS," which stars Mark Harmon as Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs, a character he originated on "JAG." Now in its 11th season, "NCIS" has been among the top 10 most popular series for five straight seasons. It's still going strong as CBS' most-watched scripted series and also has spawned its own hit spinoff, "NCIS: Los Angeles."
The Honeymooners was spun off from a sketch Jackie Gleason performed on the variety show Cavalcade of Stars in 1951.
"The Tortellis" which wasn't very successful, and "Frasier," which was.
