The two times I got dragged (fucking heh) to RHPS stand out in memory as wastes of time spent with crowds of people whose company I did not relish. That was 30 and some years ago. Though I won’t watch a TV remake, this should give the enthusiasts from my era an oportunity to sit on the couch and bitch about the remake.
