I guess you could say they're the same thing. Maybe its just how you look at it. When I think of spinoff I think of something like "Joey" or "The Cleveland Show" where the show revolved around that character and not just a passing reference to another show --- Under a cold October sky, I wait I had ice cream with chill02! <cite>DyingPancake posted [p:900147766] in FACT: Fami...

When I think of spinoff I think of something like "Joey" or "The Cleveland Show" where the show revolved around that character and not just a passing reference to another show I think I would define a spinoff more as a work that expands the focal scope of the original. Focusing on a minor character is one way to do it but for example Mega Man X doesn't have any shared characters at all* but clearly shares continuity. Well, it kinda does but not really. --- http://backloggery.com/devsbro/sig.gif http://i.imgur.com/kU5vu5N.png Never pepper popcorn <cite>DevsBro posted [p:900148024] in FACT: Fami...
