Adapting movies into successful TV shows is the new cool. Fargo has been renewed for a second season after being nominated for a staggering 18 Emmy Award nominations, and a series based on Richard Linklater’s School of Rock has just been announced.
There’s still plenty of great candidates up for grabs, however. Pippa Day looks at ten hit films that should become six-part mini-series at least.
Chillopedia: Sometimes, the most hated characters seen on TV can fall into either side of the spectrum. So, here are 15 of the most hated TV characters of all time.
Fight For Paradise Review: This reality show is nothing new but there are so many uncomfortable moments that will definitely give you the ick.
Bros Review: The series, as the title suggests, is about two adult men who want to behave like children and we are not here for that.
Sin City would be damn cool as a TV show but I think the budget for each episode would be too much.
I've long though Sin City's biggest problem was its television format squeezed into a film time slot. No way to get good story arcs going, you instead have to rely on snapshots of characters' lives.
I second that the budget for the black 'n white comic effects would kill its budget chances the same as the live-action X-men I've always dreamed about, but in a perfect world, that's what it'd be. Or, ya know, a graphic novel of some kind.
American Beauty? Um... no. I am not interested in a TV show about a pedophile.
KickAss sounds like a really solid idea to me. Not to expensive of a show to do, can easily fit into an episodic format and is fresh enough idea to stand out on the tv landscape.
If an Arrow tv show can be profitable then so can that.
