Are there any shows you would like to see the network television version of or a prestige television version of?

Submitted by brettdavis4 t3_zrc5ek in television

I've always wondered what it would be like to take a tv show like the West Wing and have a version of it on AMC/FX/Streaming Service/Premium cable.

On another note I'd like to see a water down version of Mr. Robot on network television. Ironically, the pilot could be used as the template. It would be a hacker that went around and did good deeds. In the pilot, Elliot alerts the authorities to the bad coffee shop owner.

"The Days and Nights of Molly Dodd" with Blair Brown as the mother.

Oh, and "My Talk Show" with Jennifer Bass and her best friend Angela Davenport.

I would love a prestige version of Law & Order that was more gritty like the original seasons, and tried to bring back the 'realism' (it was never realistic, but y'know what I mean).

Why the hell would you want to see a watered-down version of Mr Robot? I understand wanting to see network stuff upgraded but not the other way around.

I would say "Homicide: Life on the Streets" but they already kind of did that with "The Wire".

I would love to see a prestige TV version of Rings of Power. Rather than the CW offering we got on streaming.

So if you are not going to watch the show, why do you need a watered down version to do that?

Because if it’s too good of show all I’ll end up doing is watching the show and not get anything done. A procedural adds nice light-hearted ambiance to a room when you’re not in the mood for a podcast or music.

The Newsroom is the premium cable version of The West Wing.
