* ''[[Kiddy Grade]]'' is a Spiritual Successor to ''[[Dirty Pair]]'': both series revolve around a team of [[Lovely Angels|two young female]] operatives for a [[Heroes-R-Us|galaxy-wide troubleshooting organization]] that uses incredibly advanced Phlebotinum, [[Action Girl|brute force]], [[Hero Insurance|property damage]], and [[Spanner in the Works|good luck]] to right wrongs and triumph over evil.

* The Lifetime mini series, ''Marry Me'' is a spiritual successor to ''Maneater''.
* ''[[A.N.T. Farm]]'' is a spiritual successor to ''[[That's So Raven]]''.
* ''[[Deadliest Warrior]]'' is a spiritual successor to ''[[Animal Face -Off]]''.
* ''My Summer With Des'' (one-off slice-of-life dramedy by Arthur Smith against the backdrop of Euro '96) is a spiritual successor to ''An Evening With Gary Lineker'' (one-off slice-of-life dramedy by Smith and Chris England against the backdrop of the 1990 World Cup).
* ''[[Jessie]]'' could be considered a successor to ''[[The Nanny]]'', since they are both about regular women being hired as nannies for wealthy families through pure happenstance.
