    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.

    Space above and beyond was 90s and I'll throw in Andromeda to keep ya happy

    Over half the suggested shows on this thread so far are 1980s shows.

    Actual 90s shows I would like to see remade - Ren and Stimpy (brilliant viewing after a hit off the bong), This Life, The Word, Gaytime TV and Red Dwarf.

    I thought NYPD Blue was a great 90's drama series.


    Hard to improve on it but also hard to fcuk it up. Just new actors. But doubtless it would be peppered with stupid "terrorist" episodes.

    Red dwarf is still running with new episodes. They are ****e just like the original now that I'm an adult.

    loved Space Above and Beyond, from my recollection its main problem was it was so expensive to make.

    I dont think that really mattered if you got enough TV stations to carry it. CGI costs have gone down loads. Less model making and easier to create space battles. Lets go kill some Chigs!!!

    I think they had only one Chig armour for the whole series and it was built specifically for one person.
    Werent the Hammerheads as good as an X-Wing?

    As far as I remember no-one became a star except Joel dela Feute the asian guy who got roles in Law and Order as a police Psychiatrist.

    I can remember being very disappointed when Space above and beyond never returned to Saturday evenings on rte.

    🙈🙉🙊

    and what do you do think we have now?
    Celebs go dating,
    Xfactor,
    Britain's got talent,
    Hollyoaks
    Big Brother,
    I am a celebrity get me out of here.

    This is the crap my wife watches. Gimme back the good old days when there was intelligent stuff on TV.

    Now if you will excuse me I am going to settle down with a large tube of vasaline and kleenex to watch vintage Charlies Angels.

    I'd have thought you were of a Baywatch man.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    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.
    I'd take quite a lot of 7 of 9, even if she shared a name with one of our beloved broadcasters at the time.

    Joel de la Fuente is technical operative Ruben Morales, the Asian psychiatrist is BD Wong (Dr. George Huang).

    Sliders - same concept, but completely different worlds. I think modern production standards and cgi along with a different cast could be interesting.

    Celebrity Deathmatch was touted to be relaunched on December 2018, would be interesting who they would come up with now, I hoping to see this back, it filled the vacuum of Spitting Image back in its time.
