Let's arbitrarily say three or more seasons designates success. The series has to be based solely on the movie. If movie and series are both based primarily on a popular book, comic book or radio show, it doesn't count. That would rule out "Dobie Gillis."
Without doing any research, I came up with "Mash," the most successful example. I believe "MASH" was based on a book, but not a popular one.
Another would be "The Courtship of Eddie's Father."
Whatcha got? I eagerly await both your answer and the inevitable turn this will take away from the original topic.
