Any older shows to binge watch? Ideally pre like 2010 when the woke mind virus really got going?

Watch the Sopranos even if you already saw it.....it's aged well.....never boring and some classic moments......Binged it during Covid

The amount of reboots out in general is just wild.

And people just love them
some reboots are neccessary... some are not...

I dont mind if you are thinking of making something similar to something around, to make a reboot, or at least a continuation...

For example, and i am not saying this show is great, but the new Quantum Leap, wouldnt it be weird, if they made this show without acknowledging the original...

i think it is better to use a created world already than to make something very similar... either way it will be compared to its predecessor...

There’s a BBC show called The Bodyguard which was fantastic. Six 1-hr episodes

I agree

It’s just fascinating to see

What reboots have been good?

BSG surpassed the original by a good margin.

Season 1 of Westworld was great, but it has been a shitshow since.

Ghosts and Being Human are/were solid translations of BBC shows, but hard to classify them as reboots.

What am I forgetting?

That was really good ...just rewatched it a couple of weeks ago.

Robb Stark was excellent.

If there was a show that was worth to watch in German with sub titles ..it's "DARK"
(which by the way is made by the same people who made "1883 " showing now)

It's a true Minder Bender of a seris that kinda goes off the rails a bit but the character development is so good you just don't care.

I really liked that one as well. There's also a movie with him and Idris Elba Bastille Day where he was really good.

Hawaii 50 was trash. I watched it for a few seasons HOPING it would get good, but it never did. I actually bailed on it mid-episode (when they had the couples therapist do a ride along). But I almost bailed when they lifted up the house with the helicopter to save it from the wildfire.

I lasted a season or 2... But really just said that one because of how long it lasted...

She-Hulk. Heard the criticisms and don't care. This is an excellent show.
