Spinoff

A spinoff (or spin-off) is a series derived both thematically and sometimes canonically from another series.
== Why ==
In television, a spinoff will come about when some aspect of a comic series becomes extremely popular. One character is more popular than the others, so he/she/it get's their own show. 
In comics, spinoffs will appear usually when either a fan of a comic series or the author wants to delve deeper into some aspect of the comics.
An example of this is Livin' the Sprite Afterlife, a spinoff series of Livin' the Sprite Life.
