Day 2: What show or movie would you like rebooted? Same premise and storylines, but all new actors, showrunners, writers, technology, and social awareness?

I actually don't think I have one. I like my favorite shows as they are, and I'll happily re-watch them as they are. ♡ And in new shows I'll equally happily see new characters and stories. :) (Now, spin-offs and/or tv adaptations of other media? Count me in! :D)

I feel like reboots/remakes/revivals have long overstayed their welcome, almost everything has gotten something like that over the last two decades that it just feels like adding more to that pile is beating a dead horse. While I think some reboots can be good when done right, and some have succeeded in recent years, the majority of them just aren't. We really need to step back away from reboots and just focus on original stories. Not everything needs a reboot.

I agree though, that I don't mind spin-offs. I think we need more of that than straight up reboots/remakes, imho.
