    I'm trying to think who they might get to do it? Mmmmm...

    Take some cough medicine, woman, jeez.

    Seriously, I liked that one.
    It was a tad corny, though,...and why do they ALWAYS have to have an annoying character in the show. Nelix ruined it.
    Best episode: When the doctor had a family.

    Damn straight :2thumbsup:

    Yeah, Richard Dean Anderson has been trying to turn the clock back for quite some time.

    The only thing Im almost certain of, is whoever they get to do it, they won't do the parts justice. Gut instinct, and the dire record of modern reboots/remakes is enough to just about guarantee that will be the case. :\

    After so many years it isn't anything to do with the people who were fans of the show at the time. It's about the kids of today, imho. If they like the premise it will make 400 million, and the few million lost due to fans thinking it will be a pile of toss will not matter...even the creator probably won't care that much, tbh. Shame really.

    too many crappy cop/crime shows on tv these days. they need to bring back the westerns of the 60s

    Yeah. Quiite a lot of procedurals.
    I don't mind "Bones", "Lie to me" and "Criminal Minds", though.
    They are the new westerns, I guess.

    Lol. I don't really get that involved.
    Because these types of programmes are made in batches of 20-25...and there are a dozen of them...there are plenty where there are self contained stories.

    too much emotional crap geared towards women for my taste. ncis and law and order are ok, even then i usually only watch them if theres absolutely nothing else on. the rest are pretty shitty. one of these days there's gonna be a huge shift and there'll be 100 tv shows about aliens or something.

    I'm hoping for 100 about time travel :p...
    I guess the shows that are different can't sustain for say two decades like L and O...
    Plus they can't be easily spun off into other shows.
    Imagine Desperate househusbands? UglyEddy... wouldn't really work would it?
    It's all about money...and these shows make a hell of a lot of money.
