"10. A show you thought you wouldn't like but ended up loving
I remember an episode of Cr. Mnds in which these characters were introduced; a pilot for the spinoff series, if you will. The characters were so different from the original shows cast and the feel of the new show was completely different. I really didn't think I would like it but I gave it a chance and I'm glad I did. Turns out the differences were what made me love it. It wasn't just a ripoff/spinoff; it was it's own beast. "

"One of the better spinoff series I've seen. This one had a great cast and a grittier feel to it, as opposed to the sterile, clinical one associated with the original. It was excellent.

"6 - I Like, But Everybody Seems To Dislike
I see why people didn't like the show. They said it wasn't as good as the original. But come on, you can't compare a spin-off show to the original, especially since it's been on for so many years. I like the characters, and I really wanted to know more about them. Too bad it was sacked, it was getting good.
