Honeymooners
Wild Wild West
Dukes of Hazzard

Were all SoOoOoOo bad!

I didnt so much mind the movies adapted for kids (Flintstones,Adams Family, etc...)

The one glaring exception was FAT ALBERT. That movie was crap!

I enjoyed Lost in Space for what it was....I kept my love for the original away from the big screen version because there is just NO WAY you could come close to it.

S.W.A.T. could be watched and enjoyed as an action movie without prior knowledge of the TV series.

I didnt care for the Dragnet movie at all!

Is there a Munsters mvie in pre-production?

The current spate of TV to film adaptations are pretty dire IMO, and the shows adapted are not ones that I have had much lasting affection for.

The Avengers gets my vote as that's a show I can still watch and enjoy today.

Pity, as Ralph Finnes and Uma Thurman are good actors. I also think that this film was heavily cut by the studio, and I'd like to the original version, but I don't think it exists anywhere other than cutting room floors.

Mod Squad.

It was a 2hr GAP commercial.

A-Team ended up an awful show, with some promise in the beginning. Remember one show where a helicopter (with bad guys in it) exploded into a mountain and next scene the bad guys are all exiting the wreckage. Nobody ever died from a bullet on that show, right?

G.I. Joe was the same way

But GI Joe was a cartoon for kids.

I heard Ice Cube being considered to play B.A.

That's understating a bit for me. The movie is just unwatchable. They should have looked at Brisco County for hints of how to revamp it.

Fat Albert was embarassing, Honeymooners, I wouldn't waist my money. I didn't like A-Team as a kid so I know I'm not gonna like the movie. I saw Flintstones in the movies and haven't seen it since or the sequel. If not for Jessica Simpson's TNA and the car I could have really hated Dukes of Hazzard.
