I think there is going to be a spin off to Home Improvement called "The Tim Allen Show". Check out that rumor here from September 3rd:

From a 1998 chat:

Escapades98: Hi Bob, will there be a spin-off to "Full House"?

SPEAKER_Bob_Saget:If there is a spin-off I want it to be R rated and my character has to be drunk all the time and Jesse and Joey turn out to be lovers.

Not so fast there: Home Improvement already had a spin-off called Buddies.

Alright, I think I've got one, Coach. I checked on yahoo and imdb and couldn't find a spinoff of it. I also checked Roseanne and it didn't have a spinoff, unless you consider Rosanne a spinoff of The Rosanne Barr Show.

btw-go here for a list of the longest running tv shows

The painter guy from Murphy Brown got his own show. And I think Wings had some sort of ties to Cheers.
