It’s the last time meme of the week pops up on a Monday before disappearing to its new Wednesday home, so let’s make it a good ‘un.
Suppose you’re in charge of a TV network – any TV network: what TV programme would you remake? If you’re feeling adventurous, what would be your dream cast? If necessary, the original cast could have been in cryogenic storage since the series was cancelled. Answers in the comments section below or on your own blog if you leave a link.
Remember anything goes: if Knight Rider and Survivors can come back, whatever you want is almost certainly going to be able to make a reappearance.
Me? I’d like some new episodes of Ivor the Engine and Airwolf. You?

I’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
