ABC is retooling its "Charlie's Angels" pilot script for midseason.
NBC has delayed its redo of the British crime series "Prime Suspect" due to problems casting the female lead.

I think the 'Dallas' oil Texas soap-opera isn't gonna fly too well but 'Charlie's Angels' just may.

More remakes? Geez, what's next, a remake of Smallville?

I am waiting for a "Family Matters" remake starring Zak Efron as Urkle.

Nikita looks interesting - well, okay, Maggie Q looks interesting.

*YAWN*

Bored now.

Too much of the same thing.

Bleah. Will someone please make a space opera instead? Anyone?

But if they gotta do this, at least we can have fun with casting:

JR - Joel Grestch
Sue Ellen - Teri Hatcher
Bobby - Skeet Ulrich
Pam - Kristen Bell as a brunette
Lucy - Hayden Panettiere

I'd much rather a channel just show the original. I wonder what TNT would expect the ratings to be? Would they be the same ratings as the originals reruns? I'm so tired of remakes.

Dallas without Larry Hagman as JR Ewing? What's the point?

I'm all over it. It's a Farscape spin-off starring Yvonne Strahovski. She plays a Peacekeeper working to overthrow the evil Nebari regime! Zachary Levi plays her fish-out-of-water love interest who gets infected with the Nebari plague and develops super ninja powers.

^I'd buy that for a dollar.

With Adam Baldwin as the Luxan muscle and Jeffster as an obnoxious two-headed Hynerian princeling that nobody can stand? Sold! When does it air?
