 Re: Are reboots the future of TV? He was on Me, Myself and I, which kind of had promise, but it was on CBS in the middle of their "We brought back the art of the mediocre sitcom!" lineup.
He doesn't have the stick-thin figure any more. I'm not sure it would work. They could have him play Urkel but he's more mature, but still lapses into his "Did I do that?!" persona.
Why am I arguing for a Family Matters reboot?

Re: Are reboots the future of TV? I'd love Fresh Prince, but you can't do it without Uncle Phil. I guess you could do a Carlton show.
I think the funniest thing is that the best shows you would want rebooted won't be.
I'm sure you could revamp a show like OZ or the Wire. I'm sure ER or the original Law and Order could do it as well.
I'm surprised there hasn't been a push for Animated shows like The Flintstones or Jetsons. Even Scooby Doo.
Also Pinky and the Brain!

King of the Hill is an obvious candidate. _________________Shack’s top 50 tv shows - viewtopic.php?f=8&t=90227

Also Pinky and the Brain! Scooby Doo just had a series end. And they still release DTV Scooby Doo films. And I think they're doing a theatrical film reboot.

Re: Are reboots the future of TV? I hope it never happens. Some things are best left to the imagination.
