Never really liked any Dr. Who. Always seemed to childish.

Well it is technically a kids show.

I was scared of DR WHO as a kid and would literally hide behind the sofa when the theme tune came on. but then those older episodes (when guys like Sylvester McCoy and Peter Davis were the doctor) had a weird, stark, almost pervy vibe to them which was quite disconcerting.

I watched the recent xmas special (the first episode I've seen since I was a kid) and it looked like it was made by people whose only frame of reference was EASTENDERS and THE X FACTOR.

I don't think I've watched direct remakes, as in Magnum PI or Hawaii 5-0.

I did follow Power Rangers. I mean, each season is an adaptation of the Japanese Super Sentai stuff, using action footage but doing original plots directly written for the U.S. Market.

They've relaunched Twilight Zone multiple times.  While no one has been able to match the presence of Rod, some of the later shows weren't bad.

I agree. The one from 1985 I think it's pretty lame, especially because the inconsistency between each episode's duration. But the 2000 was kinda cool, I'm not sure why it didn't lasted more than one season.

Quote from: RCMerchant on March 25, 2024, 09:18:24 AMthe DARK SHADOWS remake was s**t. I agree on the NIGHT STALKER-junk. I womder why they never got a the PRISONER remake? Perhaps better they didn't.

There was a PRISONER remake. I never saw it.

Terrible TV series made locally. 👎

They tried to remake The Odd Couple a few years ago. It actually lasted two seasons, but I never liked it. Tried watching the first few episodes, & the acting was off, like a Disney channel show.

There was a pilot for a new Time Tunnel. It was good! But it wasn't picked up. :bluesad:
