NBC: Hey, let's ruin another classic show

[Yeagermeister]

NBC should have learned their lesson when the new Knight Rider and Bionic Woman remakes flopped.

 

[DIAF]

DEFINITELY won't like this new version.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

To each there own but there is no way he can play Jim Rockford.

no kidding

Steve Carrell has a whiny voice

Yep, even if they made good shows there is no way they can live up to the memories people have of the originals. People are always going to have a specific idea in their minds of what it should be or was and that is pretty hard to duplicate even if the show is good.

How many remakes (TV or Movie) have actually been good? Almost all have sucked big time and there have been a ton. The only 2 decent ones I can think of was SWAT and Miami Vice. Yet like fools we keep watching em.

A few off the top of my head:
Charlie's Angles
Mission Impossible
Dukes of Hazards
Knight Rider
Bionic Woman
Wild, Wild West (Loved this Show)
Shaft
SWAT
Land Of the Lost
Bewitched
Brady Bunch
Scooby Doo
Miami Vice
Flintstones
Inspector Gadget
The Avengers
Popeye
Leave it to Beaver
Beverly Hillbilies

I thought they were OK, I wouldnt say they were good movies but given what they were and the fact I wasnt expecting great story lines or acting going in. I thought the entertainment value was decent.

 

[Kangaroo]

The current Hollywood movie mantra looks to be make a hit TV series into a stupid movie or remake a classic movie and wonder why it flopped.

What's up with Bruce Willis remaking Clint Eastwood Movies

I mean Last Man Standing = cough cough A fFstfull of Dollars was better

16 Blocks = Cough cough Gauntlet remake

Oh while maybe one day they will get it together doubtful

If a tree falls in the woods and no one is around, does it make a sound?
What's the harm? Nobody's watching anyway.
