Which of these shows would you like to return to our screens. I've tried to pick from as wide a range as possible, and included an option for other, if you have any that are not on the list :)

Poll coming up, multiple choice.

Politicians being currupt bastards to get the public on side as usual.

Fame Academy - Was just an amazing show, the format, whole atmosphere of it...everything. First reality competition show of it's kind I watched. Such a shame it didn't go on longer.

Oh I also liked Rockford Files when I was younger.

Mollie and Redway, yep Fame Academy and Brookie are on the list.

Mikey, I stole the idea from your Charmed thread of course :p

The Bill & Blackadder :worship: well I wouldn't really want Blackadder to come back because I think they did all they could with it really and they wouldn't be able return to it but I just voted it because it's an amazing show

Sorry Kate, but none of the options above really :tongue:

I'd love to see FRIENDS, LOST, 7th Heaven, The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, Phil of the Future and The Wonder Years return. And on top of all of that, I'd like to see 'The Weakest Link' return. It was the greatest quiz show ever and I remember watching it everyday on the BBC when I was a little kid.

Yeah, there's one good'un in there, Blackadder, but the rest don't stand up to scrutiny - I know, because I've d/l'd (episodes of) many of those old shows (and lots of others, too) and they're either dreadful, dated or dull, even those that were good in their day, like TISWAS and London's Burning ..... :idc:

..... and even Moonlighting, which was, for a while, just too "cool", being not only "adult", slick and clever, but expensively produced ($2m per episode, even then (84-89)) with a charismatic cast that could regularly break the fourth wall and get away with it ..... :pipe:

From the list...The Bill, London's Burning (both still shown on satellite), Brookside, Tales of the unexpected, Hong Kong Phooey and Captain Caveman.

I wish shows such as Naked Video and Not the nine o'clock news were also repeated amongst others.

Father Of The Pride. It was a show about a family of lions working for Siegfried and Roy.

none of them really

Blake Seven remake might be great. Avon is one of the best protagonists out there, totally manipulative and self centered. Would be good to see him updated

I would have to say Crossing Jordan. A very wonderful drama from U.S. TV network TNT.

Other: Inbetweeners

Two more seasons, please...and then another movie. Inbetweeners: The Boys In Space, or something like that. Imagine the witty T-shirts for that one. http://i395.photobucket.com/albums/pp32/sharkattack_torrential/wink.gif

More seriously, I'd like to see Cleese come back and do 6 more episodes of Fawlty Towers, semi-like The Bob Newhart Show/Newhart. Cleese still has a lot of good energy.

If it was like seasons 3-6/8, then Friends. But it wouldn't be.

SMTV and Sabrina
And I wouldn't mind if Fame Academy returned

Also want back: The Games, Dead Ringers, Top of the Pops, Trigger Happy TV, Never Mind The Buzzcocks when it was with Mark Lamar & Bill Bailey, Balls of Steel and Harry Hill's TV Burp.

Maia

Top of the Pops needs to come back

Don't think it ever will because of those stupid music channels :(

Definately Brookside,I loved it,channel 4 ruined it by moving the time slots all the time so people missed it,therefore it lost ratings,the best soap ever next to EE.I loved the Brookside characters.Also would love The X files to return.
