Fraiser is the number one spin off. I remember thinking how stupid they were for spinning off Fraiser.
Big arse bowl of crow!

I would argue that The Simpsons is the number 1 spinoff...

Only problem i had with Fraiser was that for 10 years of Cheers he basically had 2 girlfriends and then On Fraiser he had new hot arse every week.
And I think there were 3 times that he had two hot chicks at once fighting over him.

I don't think this one really counts. Hank Hill is similar to Mr. Anderson from Beavis and Butt-Head, but they're definitely not the same character.
Still a good show, however.

"Family Matters"
The Winslows were originally neighbors to Balki in "Perfect Strangers" Same names and same occupations.
I am a connoisseur of family matters.

They're both voiced by Mike Judge, both look similar. You can definitely argue that there wouldn't have been a King of the Hill without Beavis and Butthead, even if the characters weren't totally identical.
