>>>Almost no tv show makes a good movie.
Broadly speaking you are right but I’d take issue with Dragnet and Popeye. Jack Webb did I believe two feature Dragnet movies. Other then length and higher caliber guest stars like Richard Boone and Dennis Weaver, both films were indistinguishable from the 50s series episodes. If you liked the show you liked the movies.
And Robin Williams’ Popeye was true to the spirit of the original Max Fleischer cartoons. It was a commercial flop but I appreciated the effort to stay true to the material.
Beyond those two you are exactly right.
And one more casting addition to make Gilligan contemporary:
Will Smith as producer Harold Hecuba.
Neither a borrower nor a lender be,
Do not forget: Stay out of debt; Think twice, and take this
good advice from me, Guard that old solvency.
Theres just one other thing you ought to do.
To thine own self be true.
But in hip hop.
I was refering to the Dan Akroyd Tom Hanks Dragnet. Made for TV movies based on shows tend to be good as they are just longer versions of the show. One of the rare good ones were the first two Addams Family and they were only decent. I cringe to think what the A-Team movie is going to be like.
