18. Already done -- Ashton Kutchner and Jessica Simpson
Ashton Kutchner as Bo Duke, I forget who Luke Duke is, and Jessica Simpson as Daisy. Brittney Spears was in the running for Daisy, but lost out earlier this week.

No shit.

16. Aw shucks, you named it first...
I'm sorry, I missed your post. This was the only show i watched in the late 70's as I didn't have access to a tv very often.

19. I watched it in syndication in the 80's
I was just a little wee one in the 70's. Funny as heck though. No need for appologies at all. :)

Pamela Anderson will play the overpaid, underworked secretary, Brad Pitt can be the tight-panted program manager, but we need a Johnny Fever...??? Maybe .... Stern????

27. CoEF was actually a TV show made from a movie
From the '60s with Glenn Ford and (little) Ron Howard. So if they made a movie from the TV show, it would be a movie made from a TV show made from a movie! :crazy:

26. I have a love/hate relationship with the idea of a "Prisoner" film
It might be cool, but I'm sure it would get fucked up and have some sort of romantic sub-plot, and lots of BMW product placement.

Still, it would be nice to get some closure. Maybe they could make a film version of the Shattered Visage illustrated novel which DC published a while back.


Now that I think about it, The Prisoner was 60s. Sorry, carry on...nothing to see here...
