Three little letters N B C
I've never seen any of these reboots lol
Huh? You must be right, because I didn't even know these happened.
So you're saying Dallas was poorly received because it was campy and soap opera-ish, and Melrose Place was panned for not being campy and soap opera-ish enough? Please explain.
Honestly? I don't mind The Odd Couple reboot… It doesn't compare at all to the original. Jack Klugman is classic. But it's not bad.
i actually loved the dallas reboot tv show i have all the seasons on dvd
the Beverly hills 90210 reboot tv show SUCKED
yesss thank you!! i thought i was the only one that HATED the charlie's angels tv reboot. it was garbage.
but i agree with the others on your list. they were all terrible. im glad they were all cancelled.
I love the modern version of the Odd Couple! I'm afraid it's probably going to end up canceled, though.
Stupid thought, wouldn't it be a better idea to take a terrible show, reboot it, and possibly make it better than the original?
The Munsters 80s reboot should have been on the list. When you have the time to watch that grease fire of a television show, than you'll agree with me. It was at a time when first-run syndicated sitcoms polluted the air waves. It wasn't even funny in a bad way, it was just cheap and awful. Who in the world could have filled the shoes of Fred Gwynn as Herman?
Iron side was darker alright…
Some shows would deserve a reboot, but feels like they would have to wait for another few years or more when viewers are ready for them and by someone who truly understands the characters and the shows before they do anything, the ones who did these awe ful reboots clearly didn't do much effort in them.
I think the Mac Guyver reboot was worse than the Knight Rider reboot… Really deserved a place on this list
Love Teen Titans Go, original can suck it.
including the 80's horror classics …why remake poltergeist or nightmare on elm street television shows to they're not original lol
Teen Titans Go is only dishonorable mention?!?!?!?!?!?! Also what about that horrible Powerpuff Girls reboot??????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The sequel to Friends is not no 1? What a dumb list. You clearly said sequels were allowed and there is no worse one than Joey. Also the melrose place reboot/sequel had the return of michael mancini and amanda woodward who were 2 of the most iconic originial melrose place characters.
Also Dallas was imo a great reboot/sequel and should prob go on a tv shows that should not have been cancelled list. Josh Henderson was a great casting choice as John Ross Jr. The one downside imo to the reboot is Jesse Metclafe acting did not belong with the others but Jordana Brewester and Julie Gonzalo were also great additions.
What about new MacGyver?
I for one loved the Knight Rider reboot.
It's no wonder I don't watch TV anymore.
Scooby-Doo show was OK not bad
DUDE! Teen Titans Go is a VERY funny show! OF COURSE it´s different from the original. THE IDEA is nopt ACTION, it´s FUN. The timing, the animation, the design characters, it´s awesome!
Baby Looney Tunes was an insult to Looney Tunes and Cloudy w/ A Chance of Meatballs The Series killed it's franchise.
trash is trash
Powerpuff Girls 2016 it robs the girls of their likability, most of the recurring villains are just jokes, the girls' voice actresses were replaced, they wrote off Ms. Bellum, and they barely fight crime at all.
Teen titans go is one of the best cartoons out there. It's still going strong and probably one of the most played shows on Cartoon Network.
Charlie Angels movies were awful and still had an audience, so a show was not a terrible idea.
Val Kilmer narration .. for a better show why would that be bad?
Nightstalker! It was a shame of a reboot. I used to watch the reruns with my mom when they would come on so we were really excited when the reboot came on. She got up and left the room before the end. I powered through the pilot and the first few episodes because I liked the cast but in the end I gave up giving it a chance. The original was fun and quirky and just a bit scary, more like Supernatural which began the same year. The new Nightstalker took it's self way to seriously. And who want to see the stale "They think I killed my wife." plot? Seriously who?
How can MacGyver not be on here?
An Andy Dick starring vehicle failing? *gasp**
Nice little cameo by Robert Englund toward the end there.
acting the Charlie's Angels reboot sucked Ironside people don't remember it only last 3 episodes several reboots that should have never been Rebooted leave the original where they are
where's mcgyver?
what I like Knight rider reboot
the Hoff said he wanted to bring the show back
