The new producers should have known that the bar was set high, and they didn't meet my expectations.

Generally no insult was intended by the new producers; they're simply aiming to provide entertainment that they think a general audience will appreciate.

to provide entertainment and make money off of the franchise.

And a premise, and many many many other aspects. If it was presented under another name, without any pretense of being related, it would be accused of being a rip-off.

The new BSG is so far better than the old, that if anything it would be better to have just forgotten that the old series ever existed, IMHO.

Blasphemy!

I wish Miracles would come back, it was a supernatural about investigating the causes and aftermaths of paranormal events, like a violent spirit brutally killing people, or a plane vanishing into thin air. It was good, but it only lasted 13 episodes, mainly because it had a poorly-chosen timeslot and the ratings were low, despite it being really good.

That reminds me of Amazing Stories. they had similar stories, albeit all fictional iirc

I wish real news would come back. Seeing clips of Walter over the last few days made me remember anchor even would go in war zones and where not embedded. They just went.

They did real investigative reporting, not these bloody bias rigged experts that the talking heads bring on today.

You have to suspect so of the bias sources they use for the experts, but then when it's released all the retired military used in the Iraq war had to attend a school at the Pentagon. Can't believe jack manure.

Ok, to the point, I want Walter back.........

One of my favorites was Bonanza. The good guys did always win and not so many gun fights or battles.
I mean, you were with them as a child. You believed in the whole Cartwright clan and Hop Sing. There was never a doubt that they all are honorable men.

Okay, may be is is like fairy tale but I do not want to get home from work and watch other peoples problems (which aren´t really problems at all) in the "realistic docus" .

I do not like to see these "Big Brother Girls" being called a star. They are not and in my opinion they never will.

I want real entertainment in my free time.

I wish I Love Lucy was still on. I watch the reruns but I have watched nearly every episode. I have been watching that show for years and years.

They really can't bring Lucy back, she's been dead for a long time. and of course rebooting an old sitcom isn't like rebooting a Sci Fi or crime procedural or soap opera, where characters consistantly change during their run

I miss Fractured Flickers.

That was funny stuff.

They can't bring it back but they could play it again.
