Too bad The Defenders or The Rifleman have long gone off the air. They would've both made cool movies, I think. The same thing is true, imho, with the also long-gone series, Wagon Train.
What tv series or sitcom would you most like to see as a movie?
I love Blackadder and a proper film based on all 4 series good be great. Aslong as the writing and directing is done the same way as the series that would be fantastic.
Also I think a full length Scrubs movie could be done and be possibly great, again only if the directing and writing is up to scratch as in the series.
Maybe a decent south park movie that hasnt got loads of boring singing in it.

The Mighty Boosh, can't wait for the movie (even while, as with all movie adaptations of tv shows, books or computer games, I fear it will not live up to expectations...)

I, too, am a Blackadder fan but there's just no way to transfer that series to the screen, since even each episode of each series is a stand-alone production with no carry-over to the next episode or series. Besides, I think they've proven with the Mr. Bean TV programs and movies that what is enjoyable for 30 minutes to an hour wears out its welcome when stretched to 2 hours. I think they'd have better luck distilling a film from that British police series Rowan Atkinson was in, The Thin, Blue Line as it had more characters to carry the story.

I would have to be FRIENDS
There are rumours that apparently they are concidering it and the original cast has said they would do it as of the succses of Sex and the City. The budget they would have for this movie would be spent on the wages of the actors.

If the long-rumored "Arrested Development" movie ever comes to be, I'll be happy to see that one. But for me it really has to be a show like that one or "Firefly" that was ended prematurely, where the creators have more story to tell or wrap up in a special way. But for great series that went out the way they wanted to...don't see a point.
That said, I'd still pay to see an Arrested Development movie. Probably more than once, too. While I don't see how it could even remotely approach the creative level of the show at its peak, I have a lot of faith in Hurwitz and company to deliver the goods. Those folks are a pretty sharp bunch of people. And it would be nice to see the Bluths take one last curtain call...
I'm conflicted.

I know I'm in the minority still, but I liked the "Sopranos" finale. And other than Tony, Carmella and the kids, the fates of many of the supporting characters were divulged already, so I truly don't see a need for it.

But for great series that went out the way they wanted to...don't see a point. As for older classic shows that would have to be recast and slightly reimagined, I can't think of a single one calling out to be made.

Don't get me wrong I liked the finale too but I guess im just an old nostalgic who doesn't want to let go that easily Its pretty obvious that Tony is going to get indictment as Carlo is going to Testify. I'd like to see Tony get off on some irregularity somehow get hold of Carlo and extract his revenge. Also for Silvio to recover and for the final scene in the movie to be of Tony and the rest of the guys sitting around a table in the back of the Bing playing poker and shooting the breeze...what wise guys do best.
....Look at me a true Romanticst!
