Reboots And Revivals Wish List

Andrew Kreisberg (Executive producer, Arrow, The Flash, DC's Legends of Tomorrow, Supergirl)

"One of the most amazing series finales of all time was Angel [because] it ended mid-battle. The whole point of that show was that the battle always goes on. There isn't always a happy ending. It's more about the fight than the victory. So I think it would be really interesting to check in and see what happened to Gunn and Angel and Illyria and Spike. I would definitely tune in for that."

Bryan Fuller (Executive producer, Hannibal)

"I would love to reboot The Avengers with Eddie Izzard as John Steed. That would be wonderful."

Greg Berlanti (Executive producer, Arrow, The Flash, DC's Legends of Tomorrow, Supergirl, Blindspot, The Mysteries of Laura)

"My go-to is Buck Rogers because I just loved it as a kid. Someone should do that. I don't want to do it. I loved [that] a guy wakes up in the 25th century. It would be neat to see someone try to accomplish it today."

 Jason O'Mara (Complications)

"I would love to see a bad-ass version of Buck Rogers, with good special effects. Maybe give it the Battlestar Galactica treatment. It's time!"

Jonathan Collier (Executive producer, Bones)

"It has to be Buffy. If Joss Whedon does it, I'll watch it."

David Lambert (The Fosters)

"Deadwood. I really like period pieces."

Tatiana Maslany (Orphan Black)

"The Flintstones. But live-action and it's a drama. It's super serious."

Brandon Routh (DC's Legends of Tomorrow)

"I loved Fraggle Rock as a kid and that seems like something that could play any day because it's for kids."

Freddie Stroma (UnREAL)

"I'd love to see Frasier come back just because I love it so much, but I don't think that's going to happen."

Adam Goldberg (Executive producer, The Goldbergs)

"Freaks and Geeks. It's the best television show ever. It defined everything that I do."

Michael Narducci (Executive producer, The Originals)

"The show that I always really wanted to work on that I would love to reboot is Friday Night Lights. I loved Friday Night Lights with every fiber of my being. It's the kind of show where you pick up with Coach Taylor and he's got a new team and anything could happen. I loved the portrayal of that couple, and I loved just how good and wholesome that show was and about the kind of values I love to see on TV. Season 4 of that show just made me cry every episode."
 

Kelly McCreary (Grey's Anatomy)

"Friday Night Lights. I know everybody's moved on to other things. But I love the Taylors, what can I say?"

Yvette Nicole Brown (The Odd Couple)

"Golden Girls. Because they were all brilliant and we should find the next generation of talent that is at the level of Betty White, Rue [McClanahan], Estelle [Getty] and Bea [Arthur]."

Jason George (Grey's Anatomy)

"I know they talked about it at one point in time – Greatest American Hero. I would love to see a superhero movie where the superhero has no clue what he's doing, like literally how to use his powers at all. I remember that was one of my favorite things about that show."

Caroline Dries (Executive producer, The Vampire Diaries)

"My mom keeps telling me, 'Oh, Caroline, you should ask Kevin [Williamson] if you can reboot Dawson's Creek.' That would be weird, but I would obviously do that in a heartbeat. I might do Saved By the Bell, to be honest. Oh no, cancel both of those! Hey Dude! I would do that in a heartbeat."

Geoff Johns (Executive producer, Arrow, The Flash, DC's Legends of Tomorrow, Supergirl,)

"I loved The Incredible Hulk back in the day."

James Remar (The Shannara Chronicles, Dexter)

"The Invaders. That had a lot of untapped potential."

Breeda Wool (UnREAL)

"Laverne & Shirley, and I'd like to be Laverne."

Julie Plec (Executive producer, The Vampire Diaries, The Originals, Containment)

"Little House on the Prairie. A hundred percent. I would love to see a good prairie show, which seems really silly and cheesy, but those shows, Little House specifically, did such great work with family drama, romance and topical coming-of-age stuff. It really was a magnificent show. And if you read the books, they were scary, too. Growing up in the prairie was not easy. [Laughs] It was not fun. There were locusts and snowstorms. It's a beautiful story, and I hope to see somebody do it. I think somebody's got the rights. Otherwise, I would try to do it myself."

Grant Gustin (The Flash)

"I loved Lois & Clark back in the day. I want to see Superman on TV in whatever capacity."

Jennie Urman (Executive producer, Jane the Virgin)

"A reinvention of maybe The Love Boat. Like a comedy on a ship and the people who run it."

Colin Donnell (Chicago Med)

"One of my all-time favorite shows ever was M*A*S*H. I don't know how you would reboot it because it was singular, and Alan Alda is a hero of mine. But if I could go back in time and be a part of a show, it would have to be M*A*S*H."

Liza Weil (How to Get Away With Murder)

"Moonlighting. I was never supported in my love for it. But I blindly loved it."

Lindsey Morgan (The 100)

"Power Rangers. But like a dark one."

Stephen Falk (Executive producer, You're the Worst)

"A show that was way ahead of its time that deserves another swing was Profit. Adrian Pasdar lives in a box! If you haven't seen the Profit pilot, it's f—king bananas!"

Amanda Schull (12 Monkeys)

"You know what would be really fun is if there were a female Quantum Leap."

Tony Denison (Major Crimes)

"I would like to see The Rockford Files come back. So put that out there — if they're ever thinking of doing a six-part miniseries, which I'm able to do during my off time, I would love to play a New York-edged Jim Rockford."

Emily Kinney (The Walking Dead)

"The Secret World of Alex Mack. I miss that show. I loved that show. I want that back."

Gabrielle Stanton (Executive producer, The Flash)

"I would love to reboot Space: 1999 or The Avengers – not the bad movie version, the really cool TV version. Both those things would be really great science-fiction genre properties to bring back."

Chris Geere (You're the Worst)

"There was a show in England called Super Gran [about] a grandmother who was in her eighties who spun around like Wonder Woman and turned into this warrior, old woman. I'd love them to try that again. It was terrible at the time. It would probably be terrible again. But just the concept of an old woman beating up young men is really funny."

Jack Falahee (How to Get Away With Murder)

"I would love to voice a role on a ThunderCats reboot. Just putting it out there, Hollywood."

Laura Vandervoort (Bitten)

"It'd be nice if V came back to tie up all the loose ends from our show. We did one season and left it as a cliffhanger. We got cancelled before we got to really tie up everything."

Peter Mooney (Rookie Blue)

"I'd say The Wire, but I don't know what The Wire 2 would look like. But revisiting, I'd definitely be up for it."

Wendy Mericle (Executive producer, Arrow)

"The show that I would really love to see cracked in general is Wonder Woman. I think it's really challenging. Ultimately, the week-to-week of it is hard... There's an appetite for superheroes. There's an appetite for female leads. Someone's gonna do it, and I hope they do because if nothing else, I want to watch."
