Twin Peaks did a prequel movie with almost all of the original cast. Then went back to becoming a TV show - that I still have to watch.
And there is also the South Park movie.

Things I love: Batman, Superman, AEW, old films, Lovecraft
Grant Morrison: “Adults...struggle desperately with fiction, demanding constantly that it conform to the rules of everyday life. Adults foolishly demand to know how Superman can possibly fly, or how Batman can possibly run a multibillion-dollar business empire during the day and fight crime at night, when the answer is obvious even to the smallest child: because it's not real.”

Thanks for clearing that up. It was ages since I saw the movie and I remember how much I was annoyed by the character of Laura Palmer.
So mostly the prequel parts got ingrained in my brain.
Back on topic - there was The Munsters and then the movie "Munsters, Go Home!".
I'm not sure, but I think DOCTOR WHO might be fairly unique in that it had two movies based on it-but not in the same continuity-very early on.
So much that some of the movie Dalek props were already available to be used as background props near the end of season 2!
However giving the thread's example I think Doctor Who's 1996 movie might count, although it was a TV movie and partly intended as a big budget (for TV) pilot episode if FOX wanted to continue.

Alf had its conclusion 6 years after its cancellation with the movie Project Alf
Checked to make sure, but no one mentioned that both "Psych" and "Monk" were given movies to tell more stories.
Has anyone mentioned "Veronica Mars?" There was a theatrically released movie that was crowdfunded after the show was cancelled. Then the show was brought back briefly on Hulu.
Spongebob already released three movies and has been greenlit for at least one more.
First spongebob movie was the ending to the whole series but nick greenlighted more episodes after. It is still seen as the shows "ending" with all future movies taking place "before" it or was reconned out of canon.
