People are smart enough to notice when they are served something that is not the real deal. If spinoffs were considered to be same thing than what they originated from, they would have as high of an appeal as the original. This is rarely, if ever, the case. |
This doesn't actually answer my question. It explains the mechanism of the appeal, but still assumes that higher levels of appeal are what define "real" entries in a series. I am asking you why you assume that. The way that appeal works has nothing to do with it.
