^ This!


That's my #1 pick and my all time favorite tv show. That plot has the most potential I've ever seen. They can do stories from literally any point in human history, they can delve into paranormal/supernatural areas if they want to go that route, they can delve into the science of immortality, what immortality does psychologically to people over time, plus they can include badass martial arts and sword fighting. But they need to definitely use the European locations they used in the old series. That was one thing that set that show apart from anything else. It had such a creepy, old, historical atmosphere when they filmed the show in Paris. Man I miss that show, lol.

Adrian Paul for me though always had the acting range of a block of wood which didn't help and I think it became too convoluted with stuff like the watchers, entertaining(especially with some of the guest stars like Roger Daltry) but not great. I actually felt they missed an opportunity not going with a Claudia Christian spinoff there as well, she seemed well suited to that kind of pulp environment whilsts till having some acting chops as in Babylon 5.

The concept definitely has a ton of potential that's arguably never truly been tapped, I mean I love the original film and it does have some effective drama but a lot of its success is IMHO as arguably the best MTV style cinema ever made, mixing elements that shouldn't have worked but somehow did. I must admit I was always hoping someone like Ridley Scott or Nolan would do a big screen remake but I spose you could argue the John Wick films have shown a decent amount of class and if they get the casting right(Dave Batista is looking increasing well suited for the Kurgan) it could work well.

The General Lee would never make it past the PC police today. I could see a reboot where the Dukes are multi-cultural and drive an Impala.
