TV series made into movies

[WhoPerson]

There are so many old TV series made into movies these days. Mod Squad, S.W.A.T.,Mission Impossible, Starsky and Hutch, Fat Albert, and the list goes on. I was watching Extra the other night and 'Dukes of Hazzard' is in the making. Jessica Simpson is playing Daisy Duke.

I remember watching the origional series and enjoying it when I was younger. So it would be interesting to see how it turns out. Not many will agree with me, but I liked the movie: Starsky and Hutch (watching the movie now as I draw out todays update). Just gotta love that car. And to mention cars I hear they're making a movie version of Knight Rider.

But I got to thinking, what other old classic tv series I'd want to see? I would like them to do one of the 'Six Million Dollar Man'. I think they would be able to do a lot of the special effects better. I've watched the old series, and when Steve Austin would be in a 'super fast' run, they would put the scene in slow motion. And do the now classic 'da-na-na-na-na' sound effect. I always wondered when I was little if he was running super fast, why the heck would he go into slow motion. But I would like to see them do a movie of it now. ;D

What TV series wouldn't you mind them doing. cartoon or real?

Speaking of serieses into movies, :"The Simpsons" movie is in production now (I believe)

Anyone hopeful?

[ievy]

omg a simpsons movie ! where did you hear about this *has mental orgasm just thinking about it*

[ievy]

aight, so i turned on WinAmp telly. there's a channel on playing Blake's 7 right now and won't let me connect. omg it's been soo long since i've seen that show. if they make a movie out of that i'd love it. unless they already have. or maybe it's like the Red Dwarf movie, always in some form of post production. then again they could f**k it up an make it look what i think Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is gonna look like.

Hi, I know I'm new, but I thought I'd let you know that I did hear about them making a Six Million Dollar Man movie, but that they're thinking about putting Jim Carrey in it. No offence, I like his movies and all, but I think Jim is the wrong choice for that role.

Anyway, I won't take up anymore of your time. Just thought I'd let you know. Have a nice day/nice. ;D

You have GOT to be kidding me. Jim Carrey?! They are making a comedy out of it. Man. I had thought it would be cool to upgrade the story into something actually serious. Not make fun of the origional series. BAH. The images flood my mind already T_T.
