Recent TV Remakes/TV Spinoffs of Films --- Rate Them
Since alot of TV remakes have been cranked out recently, thought it might be interesting to see what some of you think about them.
Only mention stuff that you have seen the previous version of.
Rather than doing a A-F scale, I'm going to keep it simpler:
Excellent:
Battlestar Galactica
Friday Night Lights
Good:
Life on Mars
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles
Smallville
Birds of Prey
Bad/Mediocre:
Knight Rider: More like Mediocre because the re-boot episodes helped it.
90210: Mediocre
Bionic Woman: Mediocre
Bloody Awful:
Kitchen Nighmares
Tarzan
Hunter: If you don't remember, this was remade with Fred Dreyer and Stafanie Kramer and it stunk. You can't go from the LAPD to San Diego PD and make it compelling.

Changed my mind about Bionic Woman, I actually thought it had some decent episodes.
