Hollywood has not come up with anything new since the Twilight Zone days.
Most modern movies are remakes of older movies or TV shows.
Our modern day 'writers' were influenced by these shows when they were growing up.
For example: The CHUCKY movies are a rip off of TALKY TINA.
There is a Johnny Bravo parody that has Talky Tabitha that is funny. Most Bravo was.
