I agree 100% about a Dynasty: The Next Generation. Such a rich history and incredible characters. I would definitely watch that!

what about a persian gulf or afghanistan version of M*A*S*H? that show lasted more than twice as long as the ACTUAL korean conflict.

or how about a modern version of fantasy island? there were rumors that that was in the works either as TV or movie. how better to treat hard times than with a little fantasy get away?

another one that would be great to see come back is good times. it could bring comedy to a family struggling to keep their home from foreclosure.

so many possibilities, so little time on air.

I love the idea of The West Wing coming back. After watching a full round of reruns on Bravo, I now rank it as my 2nd favorite series of all time. I think they could bring it back and focus on the 2nd term of President Santos or start at the beginning of his successor’s first term. Maybe this time the series could be about a Republican president (one more like Ronald Reagan, less George W. Bush).

I agree with both sides of the Jericho argument. Yes, it got its fair 2nd chance, and CBS did all they could do, but in a perfect world, it’d still be awesome to see the series resume and to see the reforming of a new USA.

I also think Moonlight deserved better.

I would love for a next generation dynasty. lol And soap: oh, I loved that too. I’m down for 2 out of 5. I don’t know about the rest. And I agree, I can’t watch the ‘new’ 90210. Horrible. And like U, I don’t expect much from the new melrose. But I’ll check it out and give it a chance. What any tv show deserves. Esp. in these ‘hard times.”

Jae:

I’m always confused by people who say Jericho wasn’t given a chance. They stuck it out for a full season. Then they gave it another season, and the ratings continued to suck. At what point does a network get to say, “Hey, we did everything in our power and folks didn’t tune in!”

My vote is Gilmore Girls. Rory would be done following Obama on the campaign trail and they could get her a job at the NY Times. That way she would still be close to home. It was (pre-7th season) such a well written show and just made you feel good when you watched. There is just nothing like it on TV right now and I loved everyone on that show. Privileged tried to be a replacement, but it wasn’t quite there and most likely will be cancelled.

Dynasty ruled, baby. Joan Collins Fan Club here, man. Heather Locklear and Pamela Sue Martin….such great suds stars. And Soap was can’t-miss-TV.

I sure wouldn’t mind a revival of Felicity. Hollywood is really missing out by not having Keri Russell on weekly TV.
