She was far from a minor character, but I always thought Arya Stark’s travels into the unknown territories would have made an excellent series. New tribes! New adventures! Instead we end up with dragons.
Carson Wells in No Country for Old Men. Both the book and the movie make it seem like he has an interesting backstory, but don’t reveal much about him.
I was going suggest that a Tangina Barrons (Zelda Rubinstein) spin off from Poltergeist could be great stuff.
Then I saw that Amazon is apparently rebooting Poltergeist as a series, so what with world-building, expanded universes, studio tentpoles and whatnot, I guess there is a chance.

Aunt Voula plans her son’s Big Fat Greek Gay Wedding.
Meg Cratty from MASH.
Speaking of MASH, do you remember the Swamp’s Korean houseboy, Ho-Jon from the first season? How about a show that reveals that the local Koreans all worked for the Commies just as Frank suspected? Their primary mission would be to sabotage Frank at every turn to make him look crazy while cozying up to the smug but useful idiots Hawkeye and Trapper.
