Which TV show would you like to see return for another season?

    Just reading there that Some Mother's Do 'Ave 'Em is making a return. Should be interesting, loved that show.




    But if you had the power to bring back a TV show, which one would it be?

    Only condition is that it has to star original cast members. Reboots suck.

    I'd go for Due South, with the original Detective Ray Vecchio returning from witness protection (or whereever the hell he was).

    I always thought Some Mother's Do 'Ave 'Em was the most over-rated thing from the 70s, and even worse, it spawned all of those terrible Frank Spencer impersonations.

    Due South on the other hand, was class. I think Ray returned from his stint undercover in the last episode. Paul Gross has appeared in some episodes on Republic of Doyle relatively recently.

    It will probably never happen, but I would like David Simon to do one more season of The Wire. A sort of ten years later postmortem-type season so we can see what, if anything, has changed in Baltimore in the interim time.

    Supermarket Sweep.


    Aldi should have done an ad campaign with a new 'Supermarket Sweep' style gameshow where the contestants go around Aldi and load up trolleys with shopping, but then get disgruntled when the amounts come in low and they've difficulty hitting high amounts! :D








    If you're watching this Mr Aldi Marketing Manager, I'm available for hire...

    I loved the first series of Heroes, though it all went south from the second series.

    Lo and behold, now we're a few episodes into Heroes Reborn, which is good, but not as good as the very first series. But also not nearly as bad as the second series.

    Ended/cancelled with a load of loose ends. No other political drama (even House Of Cards) comes close for me.

    complete letdown when they cancelled it with zero attempt to wrap the show up in the last few episodes.

    When you only recognise the shows from the 70s and 80s, you know you're gettin' on, so may as well get it over with...
