Here's one way we could tackle what you are getting at. You could create a sub-category page that contains The Batman (2004) and Batman vs. Dracula (2005) and any other directly related titles. This sub-category page can go into as much detail as necessary explaining the strong links between the different titles. Maybe illustrate some sort of timeline? You could perhaps call it - Batman, The (2004) Continuity

The "Related Media" field can then just contain a link to this sub-category page. Batman Franchise would be added as a category to this "Continuity" page in this example.

Things like this can get very complicated if we let them. It gets even more complicated when trying to lay down style guide instructions for something like this for other users to follow. Especially when you consider that this isn't a simple issue. I appreciate you want to make things easier for the reader but at the same time it's not exactly hard work for them to scroll down a page and see a couple of lines instead of something in the info box.

On a sidenote, I would simply include Golden Girls, Empty Nest, Nurses and Golden Palace in a Golden Girls Franchise page. This franchise page can then explain the strong (or weak) connections between them all. We are otherwise creating unnecessary extra work for next-to-no gain. There's no need to over-complicate this because of brief cameos etc.

Links for Franchise and Characters may yet appear in the tabs at the top of a page. I already contacted Taka previously about this and he's working on it. It's complicated to explain but we are trying to pursue a way of displaying the links without creating extra re-direct pages that would muddy A-Z lists in category pages.
