This came to me after waching something that hinted at a possible Star Trek: Next Generation reboot of some kind.
GOD I HOPE NOT
IT WOULD BE JUST FOR MONEY because Star Trek....$$$$
Because most of the junk coming out is reboots and sideways reboots of things, like Magnum PI, and other junk I will never watch.
But I was thinking of what weird shows you might think theyd try rebooting in a weird/warped way, or some kind of amalgam of two shows into one show
Like, the first one that crossed my mind....
Married...With Star Trek
Married with Children crossed with Star Trek
Ed ONeill as the dad captain, Peggy the narcissistic red headed doctor, the opening phrase having Ed's voice reinsert "man" into the no man has gone before, line...
Another one
Eight is Too Much
Sideways redo of Eight is Enough
If you're feeling a little whippy/stir crazy, add in somthing funny you'd think some studio weirdo might think is a novel idea ut is really just funny, whether inteded to be , or not...
The crew of Moonbase Alpha find themselves in the middle of the Four Years War.
It has been mentioned on FR before, so not my idea.
A realty show where these bleeding heart liberals get dumped into a 3rd world nation communism country. They are provided a bit of the local currency, a few supplies and a place to live. There might be a timer or a scorekeeper to see how long it takes them to realize that they do not like socialism or communism after all.
I am not a number, I am a free man!
I had been waiting for a remake of Blake’s 7
It would have had a chance of being great 15 years ago, but today no way..
A few I thought died too soon:
Space: Above and Beyond
Nowhere Man
John Doe
Police Squad (IN COLOR!) combined with itself.
:)
How about all the Law and Orders combined with themselves?
Or all the NCIS’s combined together? Omg how brutal
:)
James Avery throws Jay-Zee out the airlock....
Funny, but in many ways, overlap/redundant
The suits will love it!
Orange is the New Gak: Female Martian Penal Colony Jarvis 7
Hey kudos to The Prisoner...
But a better budget so thy dont need those stupid ball balloons
“B1tch on Wheels”
+1, now more than ever.
The fbi idea
Excellent, all the perps they catch are otuer fbi agents
Might not fly now though, may be too close to reality to actually make and get approved
Nancy Pelousy comes out as transpecie mummy/crone hybrid
who stalks chuck schumer for his glands...
Now that would be pretty good
An actual handy one, or more like he was on Tool Time?
How about Colombo and Kojak together...?
“Squint and the Cue Ball”
Quincy together with Dexter....?
Remember how tame Quincy was, then throw it together with Dexter....
I like the sentiment
But all of them would say its contrived and artificial
And like all “reality” shows, theyd be correct
If someone looking like LL Cool J is running toward me hollering Federal Agent!, he is a TARGET.
