A one-shot or one-off character is a character who appears in only one episode of a series, after which they are never seen again. Very common in [[Walking the Earth]] and various [[Index of the Week|Of The Week]] shows. [[Long-Lost Uncle Aesop]] from a [[Very Special Episode]] is one example, as is the [[Girl of the Week]] for any hero who suffers the [[Cartwright Curse]]. In a movie, the one-shot can be anything from a [[Spear Carrier]] to a [[One-Scene Wonder]].
