So - what Retreads can we expect for 2009? what old show will they turn into a new series or movie While the Bionic Woman was the worse I saw . . it wasn't great Knight Rider . . .did it make it past 3 episodes? What else can we look forward too? What do you think they should maybe give a shot? Rocket River
If it is not already in production: The A-Team (already in production) Star Trek Dragon Ball Probably not in production or greenlited (but I could see these in the next few years): Green Lantern (movie) Space 2199 (Space 1999) The Prisoner (movie/TV series) Friday the 13th: The Series (not the one with Jason, but the one with the antique shop and evil objects) The Preacher - Vertigo Comics
I wouldn't mind seeing a retread of the X-Files. I'd leave Mulder and Scully retired. They may be gone, but mysterious cases continue to occur and the FBI must investigate them. The X-files must be re-opened. Leave the old mythology lines retired, too, and build new ones. But they should be extremely careful of how they build the lead characters, and in choosing which actors should portray them. Gillian Anderson did a fantastic job of not-being-a-bimbo in the role, and that's tough to do.
Frank Miller is rumored to be adapting Buck Rogers. I'm not too sure about this, 300 was great but I'm skeptical here.
