The term is a blend of the combining form 'mini-' (derived from 'miniature', originating from Latin 'minimus', meaning 'smallest') and the noun 'series' (from Latin 'serere', meaning 'to join, bind'). Emerging in the late 20th century with the rise of television broadcasting, it was coined to describe dramatic productions broadcast in a limited number of predetermined episodes.
