It's been an interesting couple of years in TV. We've seen many old favorites from the 80's and 90's make a come back with almost all of the original cast members such as Will and Grace, Fuller House, and "The Conners", to name a few. My question is if this is a good thing? I now many are excited about these "new" shows, and for the most part, they've done a good job with making most of them relevant for this day and age, but when is TV going to go over the edge with this stuff? I could see it where they could take some great shows and ruin the fond memories that we had of them. Could you imagine if they took a near and dear show such as Friends and ruined it? The very memory would be spoiled for all of us 90's kids. I've heard Steve Carell, when asked if he'd ever consider rebooting The Office say in a Vanity Fair article:
“And I think because of that there’s been a resurgence in interest in the show, and talk about bringing it back. But apart from the fact that I just don’t think that’s a good idea, it might be impossible to do that show today and have people accept it the way it was accepted 10 years ago. The climate’s different.”
Don't get me wrong, I'd totally be there with bells on to watch it, but I can see where he's coming from. Some shows are just perfect the way they are in our minds and shouldn't be touched, such as Malcom in the Middle, or Friends.
If you had it your way, and you knew for sure it wouldn't be ruined, what show or shows would like to see make a comeback the most? Shall we do a top 5? Not counting shows that were cut off too soon such as Freaks and Geeks, which was heartbreaking.
My List:
