Line 26:
* Similar to the above, ''[[Batman Beyond]]'' started with an hour long special titled "Rebirth", that established Bruce Wayne's reason for quitting, Terry's street life and relations, the catalyst that pushed Terry into becoming the new Batman, and establishing the first season's major antagonist, Derek Powers.
* ''[[G.I. Joe]]'' had not one, but ''two'' such miniseries each, before starting their regular runs.
** ''[[G.I. Joe]]'' also did a Five Episode Pilot for the beginning of each of three seasons of the regular run (the two Sunbow seasons, and the first [[Di CDiC]] season).
* ''[[The Transformers (animation)|The Transformers]]'' received a 3-episode pilot before continuing with 13 additional episodes for its first season (including another 3-parter, but later in the season).
** ''[[Transformers Animated]]'' continues the tradition with the three-part "Transform and Roll Out!"
Line 58:
* ''[[Ultraman The Adventure Begins]]'' (aka ''Ultraman USA''), an animated pilot co-produced by Tsuburaya and [[Hanna-Barbera]] for an American ''[[Ultraman]]'' series that was never made, was broadcast in syndication as a four-episode mini-series.
* ''[[Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers]]'' had "Phoenix" and "New Frontier" acting as a two-part pilot.
* ''[[The Legend of Korra]]'' had "Welcome to Republic City" and "A Leaf on the Wind" acting as a two-part pilot. Arguably,{{verify}} the third episode "The Revelation" counts as a belated third part to the pilot, as it introduces the antagonist and main story arc.
