Some of your favorite shows might be ending soon, but the worlds they created will live on.

The TV lineup is already full of spinoffs — just look at the Arrowverse, NCISes, ABC comedies, and others — but there are quite a few more in development. And while you may have to say goodbye to shows like ArrowThe 100Power, and more this season, it’s not necessarily a farewell for all the characters or at least the universe they live in.
