CBS is bringing back The Streets of San Francisco to the small screen according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The remake will keep key elements from the original Quinn Martin production: the title, the names of the two main characters and, of course, the backdrop of the City by the Bay. But the main focus is to bring the spirit of the original “Streets” into the new reincarnation.
“The times are very similar — it was the Vietnam War in the 1970s and the Iraq War now,” said Robert Port, who will write the pilot script with Sheldon Turner. “There is the same sort of tension between generations, and we wanted to carry that to the new series.”
Out of all the shows to dig up from the archives, I don’t know why this is the one they are bringing back. I remember watching it in syndication and wondering what the big deal about the show was. Wouldn’t have CBS been better doing CSI: San Francisco instead? CBS can afford to have another CSI, it is not like 3 is enough.
I wonder what will be the next ’70s/’80s failure, I mean show that the networks will bring back. Let’s see there was Kolchak (I am still bitter about that one), Bionic Woman, Dragnet and Knight Rider to name a few.
Kristin Kreuk showed her new look on Girls By Design and she looks amazing. Then again she could go could don a Lex Luthor and she would still look gorgeous!
I respect her for going as short as she did because I know I couldn't do it! You go girl!
Looks like we see what was the final nail in Corey Feldman’s coffin for Corey Haim on this Sunday’s The Two Coreys on A&E at 10p. It has been obvious this season how much he tried to save Corey Haim, but there was only so much he could do. It so sad to see them part, but from watching the show Corey Feldman is better off.
One of the other nails in his coffin was what went on during the filming of Lost Boys The Tribe (which is out on DVD today) and now you get to see where Corey Haim’s cameo went…after the credits.
ICYMI here is some of what went down on the set that day.
Looks like the third season of Showtime’s Dexter is going to be a charm! Wow, I can’t believe we have to wait two months to see what happens next on Dexter because that preview looked beyond amazing!!!
