LOL. Same here! Why would you not want good sound to go with your TV? It's beyond me. Thankfully the OEM sound on these new ultra slim LED TVs is so dismal that you pretty much are forced into a sound bar. My wife said "no" to the soundbar when I picked up our current TV. We had it for maybe 12 hours before she gave in ans was all "OK, get the soundbar. I cant hear this stupid thing."

i'm interested but only if the same guy/voice plays him. and he has to have the same corny 80's sense of humor that i think the kids all call 'dad jokes' these days.

To be successful, they will need to do the voice overs, like Tom Sellek did in the originals. No good if you don't have his thoughts.

the reason why most reboots/revivals suck for the fans of the original is that the showrunners all try to "update" it in some way to appeal to a new/younger audience. which may work, but you usually end up disappointing and alienating the original fans.
a select few were able to do both, though. Battlestar Galactica and Star Wars: Clone Wars come to mind. but most fail, at least in my viewing experience. my niece convinced me to watch Riverdale a couple of months ago, which is based on the Archie comics characters. it was quite horrifying...instead of the happy-go-lucky gang, the plotlines centered around murder, embezzlement, cheating, and gang warfare. WTF?? Jughead was a murder suspect, FFS!! |

I'll pass. As a kid I watched it if it was on and my sister was wielding the remote. It was mindless TV as most is/was. Something to pass the time and melt the brain. Come to think of it, I felt this way about most shows when I was a kid. To be fair, I had a pretty messed up child hood and did not enjoy most mainstream things. I watched a lot of horror movies during the time most were watching The Facts of Life, Punky Brewster, Alf, etc. Come to think of it, I might have been emo before emo was a thing.....wait, does this make me an early hipster-emo....shit.

Nothing beats the original shows: Baywatch-watching Pamela Anderson running on the beach and her boobs flapping around before they sagged.

My prediction: ALF will be a huge hit. He will then go on an alcohol induced twitter rant at 3:47am and will subsequently be fired and thus the show canceled as a result. He will again leave Earth for his home planet. THE END

Forgot to add: Upon his departure from Earth there will be a coincidental report that several animal shelters were broken into and all the cats stolen.
