Several people on here predicted this when the pilot orders were announced last week.

Those are two of my all-time favorite shows, and I’m certain I won’t be watching the new ones. Ever.

No “Magnum” without Selleck.
No “Cagney and Lacey” without Gless.
No political correctness.

Clean and articulate Negro cops chasing down white ghetto thugs. It's directed by the same guy who makes the ADT alarm ads.

Can't wait for the retread versions of Gilligan's Island, the Beverly Hillbillies, and I Love Lucy.

All originality left Hollywood on a midnight train years ago.

Somehow I don’t think this will go 8 seasons like the original Magnum.

Pass on all of them, no thanky.

No more original thought left.

CBS can add two more series I’ll never see.

About the only series I will watch. Though, I think is on its last legs and season due to higher up writing out Amy Carter’s character of Danny’s wife. Linda, is ‘Blue Bloods’.

Completely missed ‘get Christie Love’,

Was never a fan of ‘The Greatest American Hero’, except for veteran actor, Robert Culp’s FBI agent, Bill Maxwell.

More interested in who will play Cagney and Lacey. The go to casting now is for a couple of hot gals regardless of color. Daly and Gless were hardly hot. Daly easily passed for the working Queens wife with kids. Gless wouldn’t be tossed out of bed, but she’d hardly be the first gal talked to at the bar. Look at the gals in the 5-0 and Macgyver reboots and you will see what the show runners want.

New Magnum P.I. & Lacey Likely To Be Diverse As Networks Eye Most Inclusive Pilot Leads Ever (tr)

Is Obungo the Producer?
Maybe the fake ex-president can issue an EO making not watching them a Federal felony
Wait.
Never mind...

I got it.
Make BET channel carry them. They are really hurting for viewers. Their instamatic broke down, and the highly awaited SOTU response by Maxine Waters hasn't been yet aired and it's been two days!
She really needs the money, too, since her wigs were stolen.

The FBI has been unable to help so far... and her 90 million fans can't wait forever!

Looting and burning due to begin any minute now...

Who has got time to watch any of these bad remakes of poor shows?

The new Magnum will be played by Bruce Jenner while Cagney and Lacy will be black and white male fags.

Welcome to Hollywood 2018. Is it any wonder we are doomed?

The Charmed one could work if they don’t make them sisters like the original. A coven a young good witches has some appeal.

Get Christie Love’s main character was black in the original, so that wouldn’t be an issue. Side note, I loved the original series as a young man and thought Theresa Graves was sexy!

The Magnum series will fail with a black lead for sure, and so will the Cagney and Lacey one, most likely. I see they may just make one of the side characters in Magnum, PI a woman and that could work, but Magnum is so tied to Tom Selleck, why even call it Magnum, PI?

The Greatest American Hero wasn’t that big a hit to begin with, so this reboot with an Indian American woman sounds like a disaster.

The Bad Boys spinoff might work with Gabrielle Union since she was in the 2nd movie and I used to think she was super sexy to boot, but its been years and may have lost its mojo.

Get Christie Love reboot starring Kylie Bunbury
Kylie Bunbury is black so this goes against diversity. She must be at least “Hispanic” wherever that country is.

Thomas Magnum open to any ethnicity..... yeah right.

Let a white girl play Esmerelda in the Hunchback of Notre Dame and SJWs go nuts. Blackwash classic TV shows and the libs don’t give a F***.

Don’t look now but white males are becoming a rarity in commercials while blacks are in virtually every one. Pay attention and it becomes obvious we are being replaced.

Didn’t they try that with “24” and achieve little success, ending the reboot after one season ?
