Talk:List of international television show franchises

Millionaire and Betty
Someone better separate the two tables that, for some unknown reason, are stuck together. I would if I knew how. All SMiles 14:24, 7 November 2007 (UTC)


 * ✅, the table was just incorrectly formatted. anemone  |  projectors  20:11, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Married with Children
I propose to move the franchise data for Married with Children Worldwide Spin-Offs and Remakes to this article. Fabio Correa (talk) 01:44, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Betty la fea remakes
Someone has put "Le Destin de Lisa" (France), "Esti Ha'mechoeret" (Israel), and "Tudo por Amor" (Portugal) as remakes of Colombia's "Yo soy Betty, la fea", but they were not. "Le Destin de Lisa" was just Germany's "Verliebt in Berlin" dubbed in French. And "Esti Ha'mechoeret" and "Tudo por Amor" were both remakes of a Mexican telenovela called "El Amor no es como lo pintan", not of "Yo soy Betty, la fea".

Desperate Housewives
Has Desperate Housewives been omitted from this page for a reason, or is this just an oversight? DH has been remade in Argentina (Amas de Casa Desesperadas), Colombia/Ecuador (also called Amas de Casa Desesperadas), and Brazil (Donas de Casa Desesperadas). There has also been a remake (yet another Amas de Casa Desesperadas) that was produced for Univision in the U.S. Sirlizard (talk) 02:31, 3 August 2010 (UTC)SirLizard

Star Trek? Doctor Who?
I can't believe Star Trek and Doctor Who are not included in this list. I will add them. 70.72.223.215 (talk) 13:59, 16 May 2012 (UTC)

Once Upon a Time
With the greenlighting of "Once Upon a Time in Wonderland", I believe the ABC show "Once Upon a Time" could be considered a franchise. Zuko Halliwell (talk) 05:04, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

Does Stargate: SG-1 really count?
We all know that Stargate: SG-1 started off as a film by Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin in 1994, and seeing as all of the other franchises on this list are original franchises created specifically for television, I'm not sure that it should count. Certainly, it has closer ties to television than it does to the movies, but we are not counting such programs as The Walking Dead (which will soon have its first spin-off series this summer) because it started off as a comic book. Should the format of the original work be taken into account when deciding whether it should be counted as a television franchise or not? TheLastAmigo (talk) 20:16, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

GOT and TWD
What about Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead??
 * GOT has no spin offs yet, they are still being planned. Walking Dead does, and it could go on (it has Fear the Walking Dead, and another one planned I think) Deathlibrarian (talk) 11:05, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

Gundam
I have added the Gundam Franchise, which has an insane amount of shows within the franchise. Its basically been running continuously since 1979. Deathlibrarian (talk) 11:07, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
