It was great, but that's really why they are rebooting. Any successful show is more likely to get an instant audience if they reboot rather than try something new.

Then if it's good, the audience will stay. If it's not, they won't. Getting people to try something new is hard to build.

The problem is people often reward bad shows with views just because they liked the original. I've certainly given up watching any reboot until the first season is over and reviews are in and it's been reviewed. If they don't respect my time, I'm not playing their game.

Well at least its not another reality show where some prick buys leaves for a living to sell at turtles or something.

But they could expand i mean they are expanding star trek like there is no tomorrow’. Not all good but better than rebooting star trek tos. And it worked. But yeah…. Money…
