Talk about Scooby Doo on another thread got me thinking about shows I would like to see remade.

Here are a couple of mine, what are yours and why.

I Claudius

I am re-watching this on IPlayer for the umpteenth time with the great Derek Jacobi in the title role.

Why:
The acting is great but the production values are terrible, wobbly sets and characters facing the camera as they address the Roman people instead of showing us the crowds and arena. Zero special affects.

One of the streaming services could do a great job on this and best of all Derek Jacobi could still play the old Claudius.

Dark Skies 1996.
This is a really interesting alternate history Sci Fi show which takes place in the 40-60's America using the key historical moments and presenting an alternate reason. For instance Kennedy is assassinated by the deep state because he is about to reveal the existence of aliens on earth who are planning an invasion.

Why:
This show flopped mainly I think because the lead characters weren't very interesting. The actual plots and how they tied up to modern history worked well but for some reason the public didn't watch it. If you love conspiracy theories this is your show.

Over to you, what are your shows to remake and why

One more point

Why bother to remake anything? You know it will just be turned into a woke fairytale.

The Six Million Dollar Man, but this time that's just two nights in the Premier Inn and breakfast at Wetherspoons.

Red and Blue Army!

Isn't that Nathan Ferguson?

"we can rebuild him"

Blake's 7.....Yep, I'd like to see that remade.

But like Hrolf said, without the preaching.
