Some recurring characters have been so popular that they became main characters, famous examples being the Family Matters Steve Urkel and The West Wing's Donna Moss. In other cases, recurring characters have been given spin-off series of their own, such as Angel who originally appeared on Buffy, the Vampire Slayer and Dr. Frasier Crane who originally appeared on Cheers.
