All uniquely American shows that need to be remade.




Uh, The Office was an adaptation of a British TV show.

I think this one would do well today. The History Channel could probably convince people it was a documentary.

Is Professor Laskey the only actor from that cast still working?

Dresden Files. The show they made had nothing to do with the books.

Unknown Stuntman is probably my favorite theme song to a tv show. I loved The Fall Guy as a kid.

I've said this before. Modern effects, get weird/random. You don't even need a "Tatu" to avoid the PC police - the island concept alone would be great.

Doubt this will get any love...
but Crime Story with Dennis Farina (RIP) was the real deal

He never had to do accents. We just sounded like Scott Bakula to the viewer.

The Incredible Hulk

Sans the modern special effects

Loved that show! Another one with a great theme song (although not original for the show).

I wouldn't mind seeing Tour of Duty or China Beach remade.

kinda. I do miss non-serial shoes though. FI was awesome as a TZ type show where everything stood on its own.

This is a remake of a movie into a mini series but Id love to see HBO take on Sphere.

2.5 hours isnt enough to do the book justice and the movie was a giant ball of crap.

While they are at it do a Congo mini series as well.

F it. Just remake all the non JP Crichton books into mini series. That would give them Sunday night content for 10 years.

I would also love to see some updates on James Clavell's works. There was a Shogun movie in the day, King Rat may be based on his book, Tai-pan was a bad movie, and Noble house was a mini series.

Never saw jack of all trades. Need to catch that one somehow. Bruce Campbell is enjoyable in anything he does.

Why would someone try to improve on this, it just can't be done.

The new Magnum PI has taught me that I really don't want my favorite shows remade, I'll just be disappointed.
