88Comrade2000 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 The big new trend out there is to revive classic TV series with additional Seasons; or have a sequel series with most or parts of the cast. Some shows that have gotten the revival: Arrested Development - Got a 4th season in 2013 and expects a 5th Season in 2018 Curb Your Enthusiasm- returning with a 9th season in October. 24: Live Another Day- Basically, season 9 to the original show. ** Gilmore Girls- This year you got 4, 90 minute movies Fuller House- sort of sequel to the original series but did include the original cast except the Olsen twins. Prison Break - just aired a 9 episode sequel series Rosanne- is coming back next spring Twin Peaks- 3rd Season currently airing now Will & Grace - Coming next year and they already got a second season. The X- Files - 6 episode Series 10 aired in 2016, Series 11 airs in 2018. Boy Meets World got a sequel Girls Meets World that just ended, it focused on Cory & Topanga. ** Note: 24:Legacy doesn't count since it had no Jack Bauer. So, my question is; what show would you like to see revived with additional seasons; or sequel series with most or part of the cast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88Comrade2000 Posted August 4, 2017 Author Share Posted August 4, 2017 I'll have to think on my own question. While it's nice to see your favs with additional seasons, its kind of pathetic that they can no longer come up with something new and original. So, they dip into the past. What I would prefer would be something close to what they are doing with Arrested Development and Twin Peaks. Those shows only aired 3, 2 seasons respectively and then got canceled. I would like to see shows that had 1,2 or 3 season runs be given more chances vs shows that got a nice 5 or greater season run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadySkinsFan Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 I'd like to see a TV movie with Laverne and Shirley with L&S, and Lennie and Squiggy, and what they are up to now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riggo-toni Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Firefly and 4400 were my choices, although I am not sure what they'd do with Firefly after the Serenity movie. Alphas would be another. Sarah Connor series was better than any of the later Terminator movies, although Lena Headey is obviously too busy w/GoT and now maybe a touch too old.

StillUnknown Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Rome felt rushed when I watched it the first time, years after it ended. Still one of my favorite HBO shows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be the same without him, but it would be an interesting angle to have Paulie take the reins and what his leadership would look like. I say Paulie because last we heard Silvio was still in a coma, and we saw what his leadership was like before. And there's no other obvious canidate, though a battle for boss would make for a good plot device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonny wants out, and we all know there's no "out". Just sayin'...if you want mob drama, it's on daytime TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheItalianStallion Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 I'd like another 24 update, except this time actually RESOLVE Jack Bauer's storyline rather than leave things in limbo like they did. I'm still kinda pissed that they spent all of 24 LAD setting up Jack becoming a normal human again only to dump on that in the final episode.
