Reboot it and set it back in the 1960s.

I second that. I’d like some period piece Bond movies.

I was thinking this too. Give me some good old Cold War stories.

"Operation Mincemeat" has me wondering if you could even turn the clock further back in time to WWII, and do a few episodic missions that passed through Fleming's desk, which then inspired him to make the Bond character.

that's basically the premise of the Ian Fleming miniseries that starred Dominic Cooper from a few years ago, if you haven't checked that out.

Even have a Bond origin, with him working on secret operations in the field.

Probably the most realistic way to go about the series for the time being.

It can still have all the cool gadgets and such because that’s what it was predicated on, so the idea or thought it could be boring would be moot.

Do a 10-15 year run in the 60’s and then come back to a more present day.

Budgeting could be an issue for something of this size though to recapture 1960’s U.K. or wherever they set the piece.
