Three to start:
The Ghost and Mrs. Muir (1947) became the 1968 TV series with the same title starring Hope Lange and Edward Mulhare.
Kings Row (1942) became the 1955 short-lived TV series starring Victor Jory, Natalie Wood, and Dennis Hopper, among others. Would love to have seen that. Unavailable now as far as I know.
East of Eden (1955) was turned into a mini-series in 1981, starring Jane Seymour, Timothy Bottoms, Karen Allen, et al. It covered the entire novel, whereas the film only covered the last quarter of it.
