The list of current or coming soon TV shows based on movies:

Parenthood (Currently in its 6th and final season)
Hannibal (Season 3 coming soon)
Fargo (Season 2 coming soon)
From Dusk Til Dawn (Season 2 coming soon)
Marvel Agents of SHIELD (Season 2 currently airing)
Turbo FAST (Netflix, currently in its first season)
About A Boy (currently in Season 2)
Teen Wolf (Season 5 pending)
Dreamworks Dragons
Black Dynamiate (Season 2 debuts next week)

Planned:
Monster-in-Law (based on the J.Lo/Fonda movie)
Resident Evil (based on the franchise)
Perfume (the story of a murderer)
Mortal Instruments
12 Monkeys
Uncle Buck (again, possibly)
Shooter (Mark Wahlberg movie)
Underworld
Rush Hour
Big
Minority Report

I'm sure there's others but it's funny, when I was a kid there were plenty of shows adapted into TV shows but they were almost always animated. I guess after all the recent success (outside of the cult movie adaptations) they've been having, they figured why not.

Damn, I thought it wasn't happening. Cool. Can't wait. The first season is funnier when watched more than once.

Wasn't Outsourced based on a movie as well? And of course, Agent Carter.
