There’s easily one every year for the past 20 years that I want back. But for those cancelled before their time, and not mentioned here yet, I say Limitless.
Never thought someone other than me would put this.
Also your article was a great read! I do miss that show. My favorite show of all time…
But one “reunion show” wouldn’t do it. Needs a Full Season, Original Cast & maybe some “kids” or younger new cast also.
Yes, I said that.
'Twas Ian Hendry and Patrick MacNee, no? Hafner played a supporting role. A woman wouldn’t partner with MacNee/Steed until Hendry left, after the first season.
Emma Peel didn’t appear until the 3rd series.
Dead Like Me
Married with Children
I need to change my offering to:
Jonny Quest
See we already have a vote for Arrested Development…
I’ll go with “My Name is Earl”
In this vein, my choice would be*** The Rat Patrol***, with authentic CGI German tanks (like in Fury), stretched to full hour-long episodes. But without the original cast, it just wouldn’t be the same.
(Maybe a version based on the real desert SAS would be better. Has anyone ever considered this?)
A complete list of Steed’s pairings is given here:
Tough to answer:
I start with The West Wing, because duh
Then I quickly replace that with Pushing Daisies, because of my irrational exuberance for all things Chenoweth
But my snarky mind takes over and comes up with Sanford and Son
Then my rational mind comes back with a real oldie, Your Show of Shows
But once I’ve circled through everything I’m left with just one winner: Connections, with James Burke
The Riches. Even if only for a single season to wrap up the cliffhangers they left us with.
Pickett Fences, Chicago Hope and Judging Amy.
Happy Endings.
Battle of the Network Stars
Community
Parks and Rec.
American Gothic (not the new one from last year, the one with Gary Cole).
Typically, I don’t wish anything back no matter how much I liked it - I figure you had your shot, tough break, Firefly. But I’d have loved a longer run for Pushing Daisies or Wonderfalls.
The Jeffersons. That George Jefferson was something else
