What T V series from the 90s would you like to see be redone again?

AMKC

For me its Seaquest DSV.

I think even now there is still plenty of potential for a show on s big super advanced peaceful supermarine exploring the 95 per cent of the oceans that we still know nothing about. Lots of potential for some great stories if done write and with decent writers too.

I thankfully cannot remember the 90's very much.

I know though that I had a great time, it was a blast.

Not too sure that I'd like to see any TV shows from the past resurrected tbh. When they do try, they usually make a balls of it. They've tried necromancy on 'The Twilight Zone' since the 80's and it's been awful each time, including the latest. 'Battlestar Galactica' wasn't as great as some people like to suggest either. There are numerous shows you could point to as examples of failed reboots.

But, in any case, if you actually look back at a lot (an awful lot) of TV shows of the past they just aren't as good as you remember them. 'Knightrider', 'Streethawk', 'Airwrolf', 'The A Team' (I can't think of any 90's TV shows ATM), they're all pretty terrible, and if made today they would last a single series.

I spose if there's one I had to choose, it would be 'Ulysses 31' (yeh, it's the 80's I know). But done completely straighfaced. That means no No-No or other annoying crap.

Oh, and 'Moviedrome'. It's not a TV show, but it was indispensable to me growing up. Simply don't understand why something like that hasn't been repeated.

Same for Pinky and the Brain.

But let's agree never to talk about Elmira ever again.

Ultraviolet, Channel 4 mini-series from the late 1990s starring Jack Davenport, Stephen Moyer and Idris Elba.
Approached vampires (or 'Code Vs') from an X-Files type perspective.
Only 6 episodes... though it had great potential.

Great series. I'd forgotten Idris was in it.

You'd have to rename it though. The film of the same name was one of the first Blu-Ray I bought. In a charity shop for 50c or something. To test a player. I tried to watch it and gave up shortly afterwards.

I dont think there any for me as they very rarely live up to the nostalgic charm of the originals. Loved Crystal Maze, Krypton Factor, the Word, Game on and many more back in the day. Vids on Ch4 was great but it was of its time.

That's so weird, I was just reminiscing about that only this week and watching clips of it on youtube. Transmute.

I loved the first series. Everything after that was completely s**t. I met nasty Nick though work around that time.

Brass Eye. People even couldn't handle it back then. I'm sure a new version would make a few spines shatter or dissolve into a fragrant pink mucus of nothingness...

Not sure but would be great to see quantum leap with Sam beckett appearing after all this time. He leaps into some one after all these years, the programme has closed down as he hasn't appeared in the guts of nearly 30 years. They think he had died. Ré open the programme to try and rescue him. Could be class. Same characters in it I know Dean stockwell is really old but could have him in the 1st few episodes trying to explain the passage of time etc. to Sam beckett and what happened.

Psychlops

The best tv show there ever was, if you dont fall in love with helicopters after watching this I feel sorry for you.

loved Space Above and Beyond, from my recollection its main problem was it was so expensive to make. Not sure if 90's or a few years out but Firefly series (movie serenity) was also a favorite.

There's been a good few Star Trek series and they are very variable. DS9 took a lot from B5. I didn't like Voyager only 7 of 9 and the doctor had character development and how many shuttles did they go through ? Enterprise was better. I gave up on Discovery half way through series 2. It's even worse on Prime Directive when it suits the plot than Voyager. Haven't seen Pickard.

JMS owns the rights to films and Warner owns the TV ones.

Space Above and Beyond was carrier warfare in the Pacific in WWII re wrapped. Space Marines.

Firefly series 2 yeah that would be good. But a very hard cast to replace.

If done right yes but otherwise no. If Scott came back to do it and maybe pass the torch on that might be ok. He was perfect for that show. It's a pity he could not work his magic on Enterprise.

Did it in 2008 and it flopped big time. Hasslehoff wasn’t involved. The new car looked meh... the acting beyond hammy, storylines laughable... only lasted a few episodes.

Only if it was done right and with a cool car. That rebooted one from 2008 was terrible.

It would probably be worse.

Yes that Ulysses 31 would be cool especially if it was live action. I watched that as a kid and loved it.

Firefly was the first thing that popped in to my mind when I saw this thread 👍

I haven't read back on the thread but for me it has to be The Bill, great cop show based in the UK, hard b%$tards in that show but great drama

Airwolf and knightrider were 1980s. You couldn’t get more 80s than those shows.

Another vote for Space: Above and Beyond.

No SeaQuest DSV was done and done well the original stand up
But Space above and beyond was finished prematurely That could have been amazing

What about Pensacola ? About a flight training school and the second season was about an elite special missions group?

Space above and beyond was based on the same book as starship troopers. Enjoyed the show a lot but it's aged terrible. A reboot without the pg rating would work.

And I can't believe I'm on page 5 and no one has suggested remaking V the mini series properly. Not that garbage they tried to throw at us but a proper remake with the oppressive feel and nazi uniforms of the original. Most disappointing tv experience of my life watching that turd of a remake.

Can the the OP rename this tread, because most of the suggestions are the 80s. V that’s 1983. Another one Ulysses 31 1981. Ffs lads.
