You'll never see them again

Curious - do you feel a lot of reboots have missed the mark?
I'm starting to feel the opposite, where a lot of reboots are way better than the original.
The 'Lost In Space" reboot was amazing. They took everything that was dumb in the original show and made it smart. Then they took the one really good thing [Dr. Smith] and made them fantastic.

Also TV now: This show/movie did well 40 years ago so we rebooted it with people who never saw it, a shitload of special effects, and totally missed why it was popular in the first place.
NuTrek that you?

Wait… what is going on here?!

no one tell make them watch 10 seasons of stargate

They make a lot of shows now that would never have been greenlit back when all shows had to be hits. It's possible to have a niche now.
Briefly, but it's possible.

RIP KAOS
RIP Dennis

I'm reserving my judgement until I see the reboot of the Munsters.

Nu Trek has been consistently awful.
only SNW has come close to anything that feels like the spirit of trek
Orville best NuTrek.

They did this a lot in the 90’s too. Production companies love to ground an IP into the dust.
That explains why I'm so familiar with boomer shows and movies, despite being a millennial. There was a lot of old content and remakes on TV then.

(Sorry LousyCornMuffins, I can't help it)
There was an episode of Stargate SG-1 where...remember the paranoid dude who turned out to be an alien? Well he ends up working in Hollywood, and produces a TV show called Wormhole X-Treme, which is a parody of Stargate SG-1. This character then tries to pitch other shows which are pastiches of Sci-Fi shows, to include a very brief send-up of Farscape, especially relevant since Season 9 and 10 take on Ben Browder and Claudia Black, John Crichton and Aeryn Soun on Farscape respectively.
So we get T'ealc in a Luxan chin and Chiana Carter.

the one thing i do appreciate is them dropping filler episodes
Except that one episode of Breaking Bad...
But then again, that show is over a decade old at this point.

If it's on Netflix, don't expect them to finish the show.

Is there a television show that doesn't have a gun in it?

Honestly there is so much back catalog to watch, who even needs a flood of new stuff? I can't possibly keep up.

I'd rather have them kill shows immediately than right before the final season. See Westworld, Expanse and (almost) Snowpiercer. I'm currently really anxious about Yellowjackets.
Firefly still hurts though.
I will never forget when Netflix had the "New Season" banner on Firefly. On April 1st.

Game of Thrones?

That's the problem.
All new TV must compete with the rest of the gag streaming catalog.

When I was growing up I thought Gilligan's Island was a much bigger deal than it actually was.

Haven't they already made a million of those?

cause we need to pirate it.
