I am personally against it despite Sam Esmail’s involvement (I really liked Mr. Robot). It’s not that I don’t think it could be a good show, it’s that NBC has plenty of other properties from former science fiction shows they could redevelop, but they’re redeveloping this one instead.
If they want to reboot a show for the third time, why not V considering the first reboot was so disappointing? Or maybe go for the 90s nostalgia and reboot SeaQuest DSV or Earth 2.
And then there’s all the Sci-Fi Channel/SyFy properties they have at least some stake of ownership in.
I realize asking for something original is asking too much these days, but can’t we at least do something other than Battlestar Galactica every 20 years?
I’m willing to be open-minded and give the show a chance if it gets produced, but I don’t think it should be produced in the first place.
Yes! Imagine a reboot of Sliders that actually explores all the fascinating possibilities of parallel dimensions. The concept always had so much more promise than the show actually delivered. Also, don’t do the whole Kromag thing this time around.
Yeah, I agree. It wouldn’t have to be a comedy either. You could make it more of a dramatic show instead. The original BSG wasn’t quite a comedy, but it wasn’t as serious as the reboot, which let them explore new ideas.
But, yeah, the possibilities for exploring parallel dimensions are literally endless.
