We have a new Odd Couple on the horizon, possibly a third generation of Bewitched, The Tick is coming back, so what other series should be exhumed? Whom would you cast in the starring roles, and what changes would you make to the characters or premises (if any) to update them?

Firefly, only the cast is not chimps, but the original actors. :)

The Six Million Dollar Man. I have no idea who I'd cast though.

That's what I was going to say. Wouldn't you like to see what SyFy could do with Lost In Space?

It was pretty bad before, IMO, and IIRC more like a kid's fantasy show than an adult's science fiction show.

I'm not saying there's no place for a kid's fantasy show, but is that what you'd want in a remake or not?

"Charles in Charge"s premise of a college student put in charge of teenage girls is ripe for a revamp. The twist: Charles is now female.

Shenanigans would occur, on an episodic basis.
