MeTV put out a list of single season science fiction shows lost to time. I actually hadn’t heard of all of them, but some are actually among my favorite shows. I even did a video review of one of them.
The article writer tries to suggest ways the shows could be brought back, but in the current Hollywood climate, where old concepts are altered past the point of being unrecognizable save the most basic of plot summaries, I kind of hope they don’t try. To modern studio heads just using an old idea to trick those fans into watching while the creators do their own thing is just cheap marketing to get “their” story out and the heck with the fans of the property they’re ripping off names from. Better to do something new unless we get people who actually want a modern interpretation instead of namesakes and “modern audience” re-imagines.
I should be back to normal operations tomorrow for Saturday Night Showcase and a full return with comic reviews next week.
